By default it supports *.emf ,.wmf ,.jpg ,.jpeg,.jfif,.jpe,.png, .bmp,.dib, .rle, .gif ,.emz,.wmz,.tiff, .tiff, .pict,.wpg image file. If you like to use .webp image file then you have to convert first to any of above file. Hope outlook will include .webp file in future :)

1 At the menu bar, click on the "Tell me what you want to do" label. And type "Signature" and press enter.
2. Select your email, then select (none) under New messages and also (none) under Replies/Forwards. If you want to completely disable the automatic signature added to new messages or replies to the message.
3. Then click on the Ok button.
4. Next time create new mail, you will not get a signature on the body of the mail
5. Goto Insert and select your desired signature template. In my case "Ourtechroom Blog".
6. Now, a signature will appear at the bottom of the mail body.
