These emails are intended for use in Windows Outlook™ and Outlook Express™, however Outlook™ 2007 doesn't appear to support the animation in gifs. If they work in other email clients, that's good. Please let me know.
They can be sent to other HTML email clients, but may not display fully.
For instance, online Hotmail™ doesn't support background images, so the animated stars and snow, and the repeating margin down the left will not display. Also, Hotmail truncates the background colour, so give 4 or 5 blank lines at the end of your message to be sure.
