Creating custom mail stationary?????

I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum for this but wasn't sure where else to post...

I want to sent out an announcement to my clients via Mail and want to create an eye catching, modern looking document. All of the pre-loaded stationary in Mail is "cute" and rather silly looking to me. Is there a way to create my own or a site that I can browse and download stationary?

Thanx,

T

Apple's solution: http://www.apple.com/pro/tips/mail_templates.html
More advanced solution: http://www.thegraphicmac.com/how-create-customized-osx-mail-stationery-leopard

What I would do:

If you have any expertise in web design/development, then create a web page that fits the precise look and feel you are going for. Upload this file and all associated images to a web-accessible location. Then, in Safari, visit the page, and choose File >Mail Contents of This Page.

Tip: Keep your design within a 600px width.

Great! Thanx Andrew...
I just tried to modify one of the predesigned stationary as suggested in the link you provided (The Graphic Mac) and it worked great.... I'm no graphic designer, so it will take a few attempts for me to get something I want but that is defiantly what I was looking for! Thanx again!
