Picture resizing when sent to Outlook

[Smitty]

I am trying to set up a new company e-newsletter using Word 2003 as my
"editor." (sending it via Word's File|Send To|Email Recipient -- it will be
sent via a merge when it is final)

My problem is, I have an image as my "header" (cool snazzy thing) that
resizes itself depending on what computer the email is viewed on.
I read in this Group the suggestion to change the Tools|Options|Web
Options|Pictures measurements, but that doesn't appear to make any difference
in the resulting email. The picture still resizes itself. I cannot make it
fit my header area.

Any help would sure be appreciated!!

File: 8.5x11 w/.6" margins. Table (newsletter is contained in one overall
table with nested tables inside) is 726px wide, the jpg is 726px wide, and is
set to fit "In Line With Text"
Computer: XP3, Office 2003

If you want to be sure of the layout of the newsletter, it would be best to
send it as a .pdf file.

Well drat. No, sending it as an attachment is not an option. My company
wants to send it out as embedded newsletter. (nothing extra for the end-user
to do, just read) If I could've done an attachment, I would've made it look
way cooler than what I'm doing in Word. :-(

No other ideas/suggestions as to the why the one image is resizing? --no
other image in the document is resizing itself, just that first one...

Thank you!
