There is a new way to get my stationery.  I have not had the time to update my stationery section much recently.   So I have started a new egroup with which to share my latest stationeries with you.  For more information, click the button below to find out more about the new group.  I will no longer be sending out the stationery of the month.  All new stationeries I make will be sent directly to the new list.

    Stationery of the Month

    I am now offering a new service called stationery of the month!  If you sign up, you will receive an e-mail from me once a month with a new stationery file otherwise unavailable on the site.  Be the first to get my stationery by signing this form.  I will not release your e-mail and will not sell it to anyone either.  The only e-mail you will get from me is once a month with the new stationery.  This way you can keep track of the changes on my site also. And of course the mailing list is free as everything is on my site.
    Sign up here.
     

    My guestbook

    Post a Message in My Guestbook!
    It would mean so much to me if you would sign my guestbook before you leave.  I read your messages, and appreciate what you have to say, even if it is not always positive.
    If you need an unzipping utility, you can get a very good one that is free here: Download EZ Zip

    How to use my stationery

    Click on the picture to the left to download the zip file for the stationery. Place the contents of the zip file in c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\stationery. If you use my stationery, all I ask i that you sign my guestbook.
     

    Tips for using stationery

    Where to store the stationery
    It might help you to make a shortcut to the c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\stationery folder to put on your desktop. Open your microsoft shared folder, right click on the stationery folder, and select "create shortcut here".  A shortcut will now appear  in the Microsoft shared folder.  Drag it with your mouse onto your desktop.  When you open your zip file, you can now drag the files in it directly to your stationery folder shortcut.
    Making sure the stationery works as it should
    When composing a message, if you want the recipient to be able to see the scrolling background, or any of the other special effects some of the stationery has, you must use the down arrow beside "New Message" and select the stationery you want to use.  If it is not on the list, choose "select stationery" and choose it from the dialog box.  Using the command format/apply stationery will not include any special effects.
    Font color
    The font color I have selected to match the stationery will not be applied if you are replying to a message. You can either choose to reply with a new message or go to view and make sure you have a check mark beside source edit.  When you do this, three tabs will appear under your message body. Start out by typing the first word in your message.   You can then click on the "Source" tab and find the word you just wrote, and remove the font color="FFFFFF" tag right before that first word. Now all of your text will be the color that was designed to be used with the stationery.
    Adding a sound file
    If you are using Outlook express 5 and have a music file you would like to play when your letter is opened, you may use the format/ background /sound... command to apply the music.  If you want to use a midi file you must click on the down arrow beside files of type to select midi files.  The default sound is wav, and the default opening folder is C:\windows\media.  If you want to use a file in another folder, click the browse button to select it.
    If you have any other questions about using stationery in Outlook express, or don't understand something I've tried to explain here, feel free to e-mail me, and I will help if I at all can.
