I found out the problem. The OL stationary resides in the stationery folder
under program files but for some reason NEW stationery is put under
Documents and Settings. When I put the GIF file in the same folder as the
new stationery I created, it worked.

Thanks to all who took the time to respond.

Hello all
I created an HTM file using the edit stationery option off the tools menu.
The file looks ok when I open it in internet explorer 6 but the gif file
does not show up when I open it up a new message with outlook. I just get
an empty picture box.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Thanks in advance
Jonathan
