I have designed a nice email form for my business. I would like to a 2 gif
clipart symbols next to the heading. When I attempt to try this by sending
to myself the gifs do not show (white square/red cross). Can it be done
somehow?

Thanks in advance for your time

You can only do this with HTML messages.

Make sure that the src of the IMG element has the full path to the image
listed and not the relative path. Also make sure that Send pictures with
messages is checked under Tools | Options | Send | Mail | HTML Settings.

Thanks for prompt reply Steve,

Tried this with same result.
I have downloaded image from web to" my documents."
Opened image with frontpage 2002 and placed in document. Looks lovely. Email
to myself and image does not show. Email is sent as html being written in
frontpage. Perhaps this cannot be done.
Any help appreciated

To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you quote previous message(s)
in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.

And if you don't use FrontPage as your HTML editor [i.e., you insert/embed
the image in a New (HTML) Message using Insert Picture]?

You can email me a copy. I suspect there is a problem with the way the
image is being referenced.

He didn't have the full path to the image in there. I showed him and that
fixed it.
