Fun Email Signatures
An email signature is a small block of text that appears at the bottom of emails you send. This short signature can promote your business or product. It can also be used to communicate who you are and how people can contact you. Display a bit of personality for this text using your own imagination or browse for ideas on a site such as Coolsig. Your email signature is an opportunity to communicate your passion or sense of humor in every email you send.

Setup
-
Most email programs have a method of setting up a signature to appear automatically at the end of each email you send. In Gmail, for example, click on Settings. Scroll about halfway down the page to a section in which you type your signature. Select "Save Changes" at the bottom of the screen. Send yourself a test email to ensure it works.
Wisdom
-
Send words of wisdom at the bottom of every email. These can be serious and thought-provoking, such as this quote attributed to James Dean: "Dream as if you'll live forever; live as if you'll die today." Any favorite quip that communicates a short, powerful message will make an impact.

Humor
-
The wisdom you share with the world in your signature doesn't have to be serious. Sometimes, a point is communicated most effectively by humor. Save your friends some pain with this one: "Education is what you get from reading the small print. Experience is what you get from not reading it." For those who always think it's too hot or too cold, you can append this to every email: "It doesn't matter what temperature the room is. It's always room-temperature."
Sports
-
You can use the powerful platform of your email signature to communicate your undying love for your favorite team. You can also share memorable quips from the stars you love. For example, former college football coach Lou Holtz provides a thought-provoking email signature for all walks of life: "On this team, we are all united for a common goal: to keep my job."
If you love the outdoors, tell the world how you feel: "Work is for people who don't know how to fish." Let everyone know how impressive your skills are: "There's a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore looking like an idiot."
Cheer Up!
-
If you really want to brighten someone's day, send him an email that includes an encouragement in your signature. Let him know that you wish him well: "May you have the hindsight to know where you have been, the foresight to know where you are going, and the insight to know when you have gone too far." You can also use your signature to encourage a positive perspective: "The person who knows how to laugh at himself will never cease to be amused."
Fun email signatures can bring a smile to a friend who is having a bad day. Express your creativity and passion in every email you send.
