For my name, I triple-clicked the line in which my name was listed to highlight the entire line, and then applied the Bold style (Command-B). This threw the URLs off a bit, so I used the delete and tab keys to get them lined up properly again. Clicking the Fonts button on top of the new message, I highlighted all of the text and changed the size to 11 point. Of course, that looked a lot like my old signature block, so I needed to make the text look a little better. I typed in the text in the standard type face (Helvetica), style (Regular), and size (12 point): With a blank message in front of you, type in your text. The first step in creating a fancy signature block in Mail is to launch the app and immediately click the New Message button. Follow along as I create this signature block. So what's the secret to doing this? Easy - use a blank new message as your canvas for creating the signature you want, and then copy and paste it into a new signature block in Mail preferences.

I wanted to have three major components to the signature: my name in color so that it stood out, links to the websites that describe my work (TUAW being one of those sites), and the ever-popular links to my Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn pages. So attractive, in fact, that I promptly stopped doing the writing I was working on and decided to create my own new signature to replace the ugly one I had been using. I was leafing through some emails this afternoon and came upon one with an extremely attractive signature block.
