Instruct signature

Hey guys this is Eddie the Magic Monk. Today we're going to talk about how to make a really cool email signature as you can see I have written an email here and if you're emailing someone for the first time you probably want to create a really good impression and down the bottom here your email signature can say a couple of things about you that people are interested in and as you can see this email signature is a bit boring it doesn't have any colors it doesn't give you any details about who you are so if you want to create a really good first impression compare this email to my awesome signature which I'm going to show you how to create and you can see that it makes quite a bit of difference if you have an email signature like this one with a logo with some interesting fonts interesting colors so today I'm going to show you step-by-step on how to create this email signature okay so to do this you will need Microsoft Word so let's open up Microsoft Word just a blank document and the first thing we want is a table with two columns so go ahead and go to insert table and choose the two by one table now what we want to do is rearrange the size of the columns so that the first column is four units four centimeters wide and the other column is 10 centimeters wide so the first boundary occurs at four centimeters and the last vertical line occurs at 14 centimeters if your ruler displays the measurements and inches or something like that you can go to file options advanced and go down to show measurements in units off and change it to centimeters because here in Australia we measure in centimeters now go down and resize the lengths of the columns lengths of the rows to 4 centimeters so now the tables the cells are 4 centimeters high and this is pretty much how our signature will look so as you can see back in our signature that is about the same size as our email signature okay now the first thing we want is to insert our logo and if you have your logo on a website or something like that you can simply copy it from Internet Explorer so I'll just show you how to copy an image from Internet Explorer or from Google Chrome so for example on let's just use Google ok if there is a picture that you want to use so for example let's say we want the word G here to be our logo all you got to do is press the windows key and press s and what you're going to do is highlight the G word and then you can simply click copy to clipboard and then you can go back and then you can go back your word document and paste it in to the first cell so otherwise you can access the clipart so I'm going to in clip arts and what I use to find this logo is I typed in the word education so type in education press go and then just click the top left picture here choose insert and you've inserted the picture notice how word automatically resize my cell to fit the picture but the cell was too big so I'm going to resize it back to a bit of a smaller picture so that my cell stays on four by four okay now notice how in our email I'm just going to resize it and now in my email I have the right-hand side to be black and that is because one of the colors of my logo is black so pretty much you just want to make sure that the right-hand side has the same background color as one of the colors in your logo so I'm just going to make my right-hand side make my logo black sorry make my background color black by going into so right click on the table choose borders and shading and then click on fill black and apply it to this cell only you can see that my cell on the right hand side is black now we don't really want the box on the left hand side the border so we're gonna highlight the whole table and we're on the top where it says bottom border we're going to change this to no border so now we don't have any borders okay now on the right hand side as you notice I have my name in bold so press ENTER type your name in John Smith or whatever your name is and notice how my font is verdana and it's size 10 so I'm going to highlight this change it to size 10 and bold it and then you can see that I also have the word maths teacher and that's in the Calibri font size 10 so I'm gonna press ENTER and choose and type in maths teacher and there is no bold for my maths teacher John Smith should be in Verdana I'm not sure what happened so highlight that choose Verdana size 10 maths teacher is Calibri size 10 and now we're going to press ENTER twice and notice how I have reduced the font to oh it's still size 10 so I'm just going to type in school of Awesomeness I make it one of these colors on my logo and you can see that the color on my logo is pink and it'll be pretty hard for you to get the exact color by going into font color and more colors it's hard for you to pick the exact color from here so what I do is I did a little trick I copied my logo into paint so I open up Microsoft Paint and paste the picture in and I use the eyedropper tool so if you click on this tool here click the color you can see that it's automatically selected the color here and if you go to edit colors you will see the information about that color so red is 255 green is 63 blue is 63 so if you go back to Microsoft Word if you can highlight the school of awesomeness and go to the font color font color and change so go to more colors and then go to custom and change the number here to 255 63 63 like it told us in Microsoft Paint and now we have that color same color as the logo appearing so that's what you need to do to copy the same color into your logo but now we're just going to use white again just making sure we're on white hang on a second font color white and we just want to type in the same information as we had in the email so I'm just going to type in all the address and things like that now notice how I use the divider a straight line here that is achieved by pressing the shift key and then the backward slash key which will give you that so it's the same key as this but if you press the shift key and then press that you should get that sign press space and just type in the address type in the phone number keep in mind I made this number up so I hope no one has this number in Brisbane and then type in your email I notice how as soon as you type in your email word automatically changes the color to dark blue so what you want to do is highlight that I'll go to font color make it white and that should reset it back to white and then the last thing you want is type in your web address for your company and then what you want to do is on the right hand side there's a bit of space maybe put another logo there so I'm just going to put in insert clipart and put in one of these logos and make it a bit smaller and also make the wrap text in front of texts so that it doesn't obstruct your text so just make it a really small one on the bottom right-hand side now if for some reason you have more information that you wanted to insert you can also make these words a little bit smaller so you can highlight them and make them eight or something like that then you can insert more words down the bottom so what you want to do now is copy this signature into outlook in Microsoft Outlook if you click on new email and you go to signature and go to signatures you'll notice that we had our original signature here so we're going to delete that yes we're going to delete this boring signature and we're going to go to new and we're going to type in cool signature and all we're going to do is copy and paste our signature from our word document so just select everything copy and paste it into our signature window and new messages we wanted to use our cool signature and reply messages we want to use our cool signature so click OK and then what will happen from now is every time you're in Microsoft Outlook and you click new email this signature will automatically pop up and you can type above it and also when you reply to somebody's email so let's say I want to reply to this email this signature will also pop up and thanks for watching the tutorial hope this tutorial was useful for you to create a cool email signature and see you next time.
