Blogs on Gmail and Google Accounts

In my blog on  Adding Image Hyperlinks in Gmail signature , I had discussed ways to insert an image to your Gmail signature from your computer or via a web URL. Soon thereafter, I became aware of an issue where images were inserted into the Gmail signature from Google Drive via web URL. To better explain, here are the steps: An image in Google Drive is set to " Anyone with the link " and the sharing URL copied. The Insert image icon in the Gmail signature area clicked, the Web URL tab chosen and the copied Drive URL pasted and the image is previewed correctly. The blue Select button is clicked. It is then the issue is noted. The image element is inserted, but as a placeholder and the image is not visible.

If on the other hand, you already have a signature created, you will find that included in the newly designed Signature section.
