making an Outlook email letterhead?

[C***@adobeforums.com]

Using MS Outlook, I know how to make custom stationery using an optimised jpeg or gif image as background, but (like a web page) my picture is tiled over the whole page area.

Is it possible to make an email version of a letterhead for my stationery, where my image appears once only at the top of the email document?

If anyone knows how to do this, I would appreciate instructions, either here or maybe you could direct me to a tutorial somewhere.

I use Windows XP Home Edition.

Colin, other than sticking them in the presets...once ya find that folder there is another way;

open your inbox in Outlook and choose who you want to send it to, click reply. In the reply message box go to toolbar>>message>New using>'select stationary' then check ' create new' there you can browse for your image and choose the settings you want. Geeze, ya may even be able to save it for future use...can't remember. Anyways, try that.

Colin, i just went and checked it out...i do remember doing one ages ago but really didn't have the details. Using that wizard you have options on how you want your notepaper to appear and stuff....then it does save it for you so it will always be there when you choose to use the staionary option. You can just do it through the 'message' in toolbar of the basic outlook screen under 'new messing using'...then choose the 'select stationary and browse for your image.
