GMAIL POP ACCESS

If you use an email client using POP3 access and send via your Gmail account then you do not need to use the procedure described below, instead please view the instructions for the email client you are using.



STEP 1

First, your signature animation must be uploaded to online web space,
Your ISP normally provides you with free webspace please contact your
providers to obtain the URL of this space if you don't already know it.
You can also get free image hosting from many online sources such as:

photobucket.com www.freeimagehosting.net www.freefilehosting.net
www.imgbolt.com www.pictiger.com imageshack.us fileave.com

Obtain your animated signature file and upload to your selected webspace.

You will then need to know the URL (online address) of the image.
which will look something like: http://www.myspace.com/mysig.gif
where myspace.com is your selected image host.
and mysig.gif is the signature file we sent you that you should have uploaded.
If you view this address in your browser, you should see your animated signature.
