661887 2008-04-23 09:10:00 Greets all,

Ive moved my domain Email / Calendar etc over to the Google Apps suite. Great stuff so far! Loving the Txt-Alerts, its awesome! Anyways...

Im looking for a way to get a nice HTML Email Sig (Yes, I know, HTML = Bad, whatever... dont really care :p )

Previously using Outlook, I had a small image, and a change of color in places (to match my company logo).

It looks like Gmail only allows Plaintext sigs, however you can compose Email in Rich-text?

Any ideas / suggestions?

Cheers


Chill.

661888 2008-04-23 09:17:00 This requires Greasemonkey (addons.mozilla.org), but

userscripts.org

I'm also assuming this is through a browser called Firefox, via email client I'm sure anything goes.

661889 2008-04-23 09:41:00 Okay, cool :) Any suggestions on how to use it? :-/ Chilling_Silence (9)
661890 2008-04-23 10:18:00 Do they charge for the text alerts? beeswax34 (63)
661891 2008-04-23 10:37:00 Actually, I'd heard of the Firefox add-on Better Gmail (addons.mozilla.org) and it's basically a compilation of Greasemonkey scripts that do a bunch of stuff to make Gmail, umm, Better.

beeswax: Nope, text alerts are free which is pretty cool, especially for planned events in Google Calender, etc.

661892 2008-04-23 11:38:00 Yeah Txt alerts are totally free, Ive even got two set for my 6:30AM appointment tomorrow.. one for 6:00 to wake me up, and another for 6:20 in case Ive fallen back asleep ;)

But yeah they're the COOLEST thing since sliced bread! I mean, no longer must my EeePC be turned on with Outlook running for me to get alerts.. if Im at my PC, super.
Like, if I'm out to lunch (Im a poor student so this wouldnt happen) and Ive got a meeting to go to afterwards, a txt-alert is so much better... Cant believe somebody didnt put me onto this sooner!

Ive tried Better Gmail & Better Gmail 2 - Couldnt seem to get them to work, perhaps I need to just try & dig deeper...

Yep, we went over this a couple of months ago (pressf1.co.nz). It's a wonder more didn't jump on this, especially with the Google Calendar Sync (www.google.com) option although some here have had problems syncing recurring events.

Oh well I flounded off for a while and only just came back. Shows what I missed! Only use GMail so everythings in one place.

Its a Google life for me :wub
