How do I import Signatures into Mail?

I have many "Signatures" I used with the original Eudora v5.2 (which no longer works with Apple's latest mail servers last update). How do I import those "Signatures" into Mail v4.4?

MacBook Pro 15" Intel Corei7 (2.66-GHz), Mac OS X (10.6.5), 4G RAM, 500G HD, AEBS-N

I just looked through all the help tips in Mail and could not find anything on importing signatures, so I do not believe it is possible. As an alternative, if you have quite a few and can't remember the details on each, create screen shots of them so you can refer back to the details when creating them in Mail.

Open up the signature as a graphic e.g. JPEG image, copy it, open up Signatures in the Mail Preferences, create your signature reference with the "+" button, and then paste the signature graphic into the window.

Yes, there is no way to "Import" Sigs, manual entry seems to be the only way. Thanks all.
