There is/was a plugin called Playing Now, that was bought by JRiver I believe. I don't know what the current status is or if it's avalible, but you can check out the website  (http://www.jdnet.co.uk/forum/) and maybe you can find out how to get a copy. Then you can make your email sig to point to a FTP uploaded image file that Playing Now creats as you listen to tracks in Media Center. That's what a lot of us here are using in our forum signatures.

There's a Tutorial (http://www.theganghut.co.uk/pn/tuts/ftp/ftp.php) here.

If you're using the last release of PlayingNow, 1.3.10 or 1.3.09, then the uploads will happen in a seperate thread and not affect MC performance in any way. If you're using an earlier version of the plugin, pay attention to the warning on the first page.
