If you want to send any sort of fancy signature you must go to the signature settings of the general tab. The option is at the top right. If you go down you will see the option signature which you can click and follow instructions.
You can insert an image or even social media icons. However remember to upload it your server first. You cannot send a link that is on a server belonging to someone else. Make your e-mail interesting and let people look forward to them because of the interesting videos and images in your signature.
