    1) create the html page
    2) take the images that are connected to the html file and CSS if necessary and upload it to a directory on the web server
    3) change the hrefs in your html file to the directory online that you are pointing to (i.e. h t t p:// www.whatever.com/images/whatever…...

    use golive or dreamweaver to do a find and replace for all of the images. The best way to do it is make sure that when you set up the html file to put images in a separate dir... then find and replace for images/ with the actually location...

    remember the href is not relative... you have to have an absolute url...

    Then go into outlook....and setup stationery.... point to a file to use as stationery....find the html file.... click apply etc....

    Then click new.... you should see the html email..... send it to another comp not your own...not a different email...to see what it looks like and make sure you changed all the image locations....

    and then when you take the email addresses....make sure you put them in the BCC field......
