Sometimes I create signatures for people who want to upload them to blogger themselves. If you are willing to play with your blogger dashboard - try uploading your signature permanently using the following steps:
Step one - have me create you a signature (LOL!) Just kidding - make sure it is the same background color as your blog or get one with a transparent background (ie. PNG file)
Step two - Create a post and upload your signature as a photo to a post in your COMPOSE tab
Step three - click on the EDIT HTML tab and copy the HTML code of that photo
Step four - DO NOT PUBLISH YOUR POST (you can add a title to the post ~ for example - DO NOT DELETE - BLOG SIGNATURE). Save your post, just do not publish it.
Step five - go to the SETTINGS Tab in your dashboard.
Step six - click on FORMATTING tab and scroll ALL the way to the bottom of the Formatting page. You will see a POST TEMPLATE box.
Step seven - paste your HTML code (from your signature) in the Post Template box.
Step eight - save your settings
Now each time you create a post, your signature will automatically pop up in the compose portion of your post.
Variations: Since I upload so many cards and I was tried of writing "Supplies" - I created a custom Supplies graphic which atomatically uploads each time I post - if I don't want to use the supplies graphic (ie. if I am not posting something with a supply list), I just click on the graphic and delete it!
Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for posting this Beth! I have been thinking I should be able to do this, but hadn't figured it out yet.
Good Lord Woman! This is FABULOUS Your Ingenuity and Pure GENIUS blows me away!
Why don't I just pick this stuff up from osmosis or something? DANG IT!
Hi Beth! Nice to "see" you! You're so super to do this to help people out! I'm laughing though, at how many accidental blog posts we might see with title "DO NOT DELETE - BLOG SIGNATURE" I would be one of them, if I had Blogger!

I did some google and found your tutorial, thank you.
Thanks a bundle! This really is one of the simpler ways that I have come across!! Yay for that.
I am still running into a glitch that I can't seem to get away from...the thin little border that is around my signature...
I have tried border="0" and such but to no avail...do you have any thoughts??
Thanks a bunch for this, I was just searching how to do this, and found it straight away via your blog. So Thanks!
