Which email program are you using? Which OS?

you need to create your own stationary. check the help menu in outlook. :thumbsup:
Had a look at that , not really what i meant, need to insert a company logo, not change the background colour / boarder to a std preset.

You can insert anything into stationary.
I use it for business purposes which includes my company logo and an electronic business card.
Just makes it easier when sending emails rather than having to insert your images etc. etc. everytime you write an email

Design the format as you want it in MSWord.
Save as '.html'.
In Outlook, use that 'file as template' when creating New Sationary via 'Stationary Picker'.
tried that and the text is coming up but the picture doesnt display , any suggestions avid?

whilst on this subject, does anyone know how to get a signature to fly in from the right hand side? (using outlook).

There may be other ways, but one way that will work is by creating an animated gif.
you need to use html - create a html file with the info you want, and in outlook create a new signature, using the file you've created.
An example of a simple 'moving' signature, with picture......
<HTML>
<MARQUEE style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 33px" trueSpeed scrollAmount="2" scrollDelay="5" direction="right"
behavior="slide" loop="1">
<FONT face=Verdana size=1>
<b>
Your name<br>
Your address<br><p>
Phone<br>
Fax<br>
<A HREF="mailto:joebloggs@hotmail.com">joebloggs@hotmail.com</A> <br><p>
</b>
</FONT>
</MARQUEE><p>
<MARQUEE style="WIDTH: 500px; HEIGHT: 33px" trueSpeed scrollAmount="2" scrollDelay="5" direction="left"
behavior="slide" loop="1">
<img src="location of picture">
</Marquee>
</HTML>
So create a text file like the above, using the info you want in the red bits, and save as a html file, then use that as your sig.
