The default interface for Mail signatures allows you to do rich text signatures using the fonts and colors palette. You can even drag an image into the compose signature window and it will be included in every email as an attachment. This is fine for most people, but attachments should be just that, an attachment of a file I am sending, not an image in my signature. So here’s an easy guide on how to do CSS signatures referencing images on an outside server and not as an attachment.

Create a WebClip Bookmark Icon for Your Site PDF Print E-mail

I learned this little tutorial from Cartoon Barry's Blog. Be sure to check it out for other great info.

Adding the Code

This is a great way to customize your website icon (WebClip Bookmark) when an iPhone user adds it to his/her home screen. By default, it takes a screenshot of the site and makes that the icon. For some, that's just not good enough. As per the iPhone Developer Center, this is easy to do.

Step 1: Create a custom icon that is 57x57 and save it as a PNG file.
Step 2: Rename the file to anything you'd like, i.e. yourcustomicon.png
Step 3: Upload the png to your root directory on your server.
Step 4: Add the following code in the <head> element of your website:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/yourcustomicon.png"/>

Add the WebClip Bookmark to Your Home Screen

Then go to your site and add the bookmark icon on your iPhone. I have a page on my iPhone dedicated for websites. Below are some of the custom icons I made and added, each of them linking to one of my customized iPhone websites:

Pretty cool huh? It's all in the little details. But how do you add the WebClip Bookmark to your home screen? Keep reading, it's easy.

The Problem

While working on my iPhone website, I realized that the galleries had suddenly stopped working. The little icons with the left and right arrows had disappeared mysteriously, so if a visitor clicked on a gallery, the first image would show up but that's all it would do. Chances are, if you have a smallfolio site, yours is doing the same. Pretty strange.

Here's a before and after, notice the icons on the top left:
