Creating a letterhead

[Brendan]

Hi all.
I'm creating a letterhead in Word 2004 (Mac OS version) using my
company's logo and a couple of other graphics, all which were created
in Photoshop. When I import the images (as .jpgs) into the
header/footer, they appear 50% transparent. I've tried changing the
opacity, contrast, and layer order, but to no avail. What am I doing
wrong? Is there any way for the images to appear behind the text, but
not partially transparent?
Thanks!
Brendan

Are they appearing as transparent when printed, or only when viewed
on-screen?

Items in the header & footer are displayed semi-transparent (in page layout
view) to separate them from the main focus of the editing intent - the body
of the document.
