Add a video to Gmail & set image size

Full disclosure: Truth be told, there is no straightforward way to add a video to Gmail signatures using the Gmail built-in signature editor. This guide will show you how to add a featured “video” image that you could then link to your video.

If you want a more elegant and structured way of adding a video to your signature, try WiseStamp’s video email signature generator. It’s easy to set up in Gmail (just 1-click) and completely free.
