Outlook 03 not showing graphics

It is driving me crazy as well - started about the same time, I have tried many "fixes" that Microsoft had posted - nothing has worked!

Forwarding does not seem to work - security settings ...didn't work, changing from html to rtf didn't help. Making Microsoft as my word editor - slows things down, but may help!

ps

Thanks Renee Taylor. It worked for me.

Thanks guys for the help. This registry is the point:

outlook stores the embedded images in "images x(yy).jpg" files in the directory specified in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Security\OutlookSecureTempFolder
".
yy is incremented each time a new mail with embedded images is opened.
Once yy=99 outlook stops displaying embedded images.

Solution: delete all the image*jpg in the specified directory at boot time

Hey,

Too good. It Worked for me. Thank you so much.

This was driving me insane too! In spite of the great advice above, nothing worked for me. Here's how I got it to finally work in Outlook 2002:

Start a new message which includes your intended signature. Before you start to spit vitriole, disregard the fact that the graphic isn't there. Simply right-click the nasty "x", choose "properties" and then navigate to the location of the graphic. Select it and viola: it should appear.

Now wait a minute, we're not finished just yet (it would be a real pain to have to repeat the above for every message which you send out, wouldn't it?!). Before entering anything else into the body of this message, highlight and copy everything; the text as well as the graphic.

Go back to Tools, Options, Mail Format, Signatures..., and select New. The next part is important: Start with a blank signature! Then, hit CTL V to paste your earlier selection. Save it and, Bob's your uncle! At least he was when I did this. Try it for yourself...

Interesting problem.
Gifs, tifs etc not showing up in one user's email sig.

I've tried deleting the outlook temp folders. No luck.

Interestingly, if I click on the image, go to properties, and simply reselct the same image file, it will display ok. However, copying the whole signature into a new sig file did not work.
Im guessing that at other occasions microsoft is losing the path to the image.

That same problem occurs here @ the office every now and then.
Here is what I do:
- open Outlook Options and go to the signature section (under Mail Format),
- edit the existing signature (the one which lost the graphic),
( here the graphic is gone as well and a nice red cross has taken over )
- select the graphic,
- DELETE it,
- right mouse click,
- Choose 'Insert Image' (ofcourse you need the graphic somewhere locally),
- click on the desired picture/graphic
- *pronto*, there it is (again)
- untill the next, misterious, disappearance...

I have to do this exact same exersize every a new signature is created (so first do as described @ #11 and next follow these instructions).

Thanks Reneetaylor
