AOL does not support HTML email (stationery)...there's a weird workaround (see http://everythingemail.tripod.com/emailbasics.html for instructions), but it doesn't work on all AOL browsers & in effect takes stationery & turns it into an attachment & defeats the purpose. If she wants to use stationery for her emails, then that same page lists the major email programs in which she can do so (there is a link on that page for her to go to the home page of Outlook Express for Macs, which does support HTML mail), she will also find a lot of info on email (although mostly PC-based) at that site (home page: http://everythingemail.tripod.com ) HTH, Lady Wistfulee P.S. The site is optimized for IE4+ & nn4+ since those are the browsers come with email clients that support HTML mail & yes it's mine, but there's no reason anyone else should have to go through the 100's of hours of research I did : ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin McCarthy" <roland(at)ninehells.org> To: "Karen Stafford" <webmaster(at)noteworthydesigns.com>; "HWG Techniques" <hwg-techniques(at)hwg.org> Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2000 9:36 PM Subject: Re: file extensions and going from PC to Mac : Try gif or jpg.
