Email signature growing larger in size

X

XxLicherxX

Hello everyone,

I am trying to add a signature to my emails using Microsoft Outlook
2003. This signature contains 1 .jpg which is size 12 kb and some text.
However when I add the .jpg to the email signature, my email message
blow up in size to up to somewhere between 47 and 131 KB.

I first thought that it might be converting the .jpg into a .bmp, but
the .bmp version of this picture is 44 kb. That would make sense if it
was consistenly 47 KB, but why does it get up to 131 KB.

Is my assumption about the conversion of .jpg to .bmp correct? Also
what is going on with the size being so big?

Any comments/suggestions/responses are appreciated.
