Email Signatures

Use basic contact information and include assigned fonts and colors only.

Sample information you could include:

  • Name
  • Title
  • Oregon State University
  • College, school or department
  • Phone number​
  • Physical address

Try to keep your information as clean and neat as possible. Only insert what people actually need in order to contact you. While adding images to your signature is not prohibited they are not consistently handled by all email services and often cause confusion (people think there are attachements) for that reason we don’t include them in our samples.

Font: Use Verdana size 12-14.

If you must provide additonal information you can separate your basic contacts from extended information. Make use of the text to insert a link, never include a raw url.

Simple Email Templates

We have updated the offerings in the Email Template Box folder. The email header images have been updated with the accessible orange (#d73f09). Oregon State email headers must use the primary university logo. Either the horizontal or vertical logo can be used, and it can be placed on a color background or over an image. Do not use companion logos in the header. College, department or unit names can be placed as text below the header images. These images are great for adding branding to an Outlook email.

The templates folder has been updated to include MailChimp templates that have branding built-in. You can access them through the links below or in the templates folder under the Word document MailChimp Template Links and Instructions. Now you’re well on your way to sending attractive, on-brand, and mobile-friendly emails through MailChimp.
