Cant insert hyperlink into image in Mac Mail

FWIW, you cannot add a link to an image in a signature in Mail. You can add a link to an image inserted in an email. You may have to try a different email client to add a linked image in a signature. It's not something I do so I can't recommend any.

Highlight then Add it:

Best I can say is to highlight the image, and the proceed with the URL. Be certain to mention where clicking the link will take them.

What issue?

What exactly do you mean by "insert hyperlink into image"? Can you elaborate on what you are trying to achieve?

Are you trying to compose an email and include an image that acts as a live hyperlink to somewhere?

It looks like you are trying to have an e-mail message that is more like a webpage... please clarify.

Clicking on links in an e-mail is something potentially dangerous, especially if it can happen unwittingly - as you try to select an image and it opens a website? Not good. I suggest you just put in the url to your webpage if you want to. It will be automatically clickable, and at least easily recognizable as a link.

Dangerous for Linked-in profile and my company?

No, dangerous in general. You should never click on a link in an email because you will identify yourself to the spammers, inviting more spam.

Links in email can also redirect to phishing websites.

If you make your recipients comfortable clicking on links in emails, you open them up to phishing attacks using your emails as a vector to harvest their personal information.

HTML signature allows you much more control over the markup for Signatures.

dialabrain above posted the link to best tutorial on the subject— this is the way to go.

Many recipients will disable images and image links in received email so you are spending a lot of time on something many will not even see. And as previously said, images in email can be be a dangerous security risk, for the recipient. If you were to send an email to me I would not even see your image let alone allow it to have a clickable link.

Just to add, it is possible to add an HTML signature to Mail that would have clickable images. This link should get you started.
