Tickers: Yahoo E-Mail

Yahoo makes setting up your ticker signature simple. It may take a few tries to get the hang of highlighting, but this is the best method for setting up your Yahoo signature.

In your Yahoo mailbox:
1. Go to Mail Options
2. Click Signature

3. Go back to your ticker customization page and copy the actual image that shows up at the top of the page when you preview your ticker (use Control-C or Edit --> Copy to copy the image).

* Just start somewhere to the left or right of the image and drag over it to highlight it (turning it grey in the process).

4. Go back to your Yahoo signature settings page (make sure you're in "Color and Graphics" mode).
5. Paste the image into the signature box (using Control-V or Edit --> Paste). If the image was copied properly, it will show in the signature box.

Make sure you check the box to add it to outgoing messages and make sure you set yahoo to allow HTML when you are composing new messages.
