    I love tips like this because they elevate your email aesthetic and capabilities. Why not make your email that you use every day look the best that it can? 🥰 My email signature is pretty boring with just my contact info and a bitmoji. Your format is definitely an upgrade with the links. Thank you for always offering new ways to improve our craft as a teacher and give a unique first impression. I saw on Instagram that you hit a PR at the gym... congratulations on this and best wishes on your upcoming powerlifting national championship! As my students love to say all the time, Let's GOOOOOOO! 😁😁😁

    • @PocketfulofPrimary
      @PocketfulofPrimary  Рік тому

      Aww Mandy... you're the BEST! First of all, I'm totally with you about the aesthetic... it's definitely not a necessity BUT I will say that it makes me smile every time I compose a new email and I think that's worth the few minutes it took to create! Also, thank you SO much for the congratulations and well wishes at Nationals coming up! I am so excited to compete and push myself at this next level. You're so sweet for remembering! I hope your school year is off to a fantastic start and you were able to take lots of time to rest and rejuvenate over this long weekend! 🖤

    • @PocketfulofPrimary
      @PocketfulofPrimary  Рік тому

      Thank you so much! Great question... Gmail will only allow you to have text in your mobile signature. However, the work around that I have found is that you can copy and paste your picture email signature from a previously sent email. n order to do that from a mobile device, you can follow these steps in the Gmail app:
      1. Open the Gmail app
      2. Click the menu button in the top left corner (3 horizontal lines)
      3. Click "Sent"
      4. Locate an email you sent from your computer with the picture email signature and open it
      5. Hold down your finger on the picture email signature (or use your fingers to select all parts of the email signature if you used multiple images) and click "Copy"
      6. Return to your inbox and start a new email by clicking "Compose"
      7. Type your email as desired and then paste your picture email signature at the bottom
      Hopefully that helps!

Thank you so much for inspiring me on this sad weekend when the realization hits that summer is over! I'm going to have so much fun doing this! Also, I noticed you color coded your labels on your gmail. Is that as simple as right clicking and clicking on change color like in Google Drive, or is there something more to it? Thank you again! I LOVE your how to videos! Have a great week and good luck at your upcoming powerlifting competition!

As for the color coding in Gmail... yes! If you click the 3 dots next to the label, you can choose "Label color" at the top! It's a great way to keep things organized 🥰 Also, thank you so, so much for the well wishes at my upcoming meet! It's getting so close and I'm getting more and more excited 🎉 Enjoy the last bit of your summer and I hope you have the BEST first day of school tomorrow! 🖤

      This was just an example and you can make changes to fit your own needs. However, having your email in your signature can be handy because families can save your email signature as an image... almost like a virtual business card... and all your information will be in one place for them.

      This was just an example... you don't have to add your email to your signature. But, I think sometimes it's nice to have there as a reference. For example, a parent might even save the image from your email signature to keep handy with your contact information (like a virtual business card) so it would be helpful to have your email listed on it. Just my thoughts though!
