Trying to set this up but having trouble. I am doing the following:

1. I copy and paste badge from Linkedin to my outlook signature. I use the first badge provided for on Linkedin 

2. I then select Format>Hyperlink while my signature box is open. I have highlighted the Linkedin badge. 

3. I type in the hyperlink from linkedin. 

4. The problem: Outlook asks for the text for the hyperlink. If I leave this field blank, then Outlook deletes the image and inserts the hyperlink. If I type in any text, then Outlook deletes the badge and inserts the text that I type. 

Please help. Thanks!
