Conversion to an HTML email

I have the following url set as a template so that it can be updated and sent as an HTML easily:
http://www.uaetawteen.com/html/Template/Tawteen-HTML-Template.html

The problem we have is when you try to convert to an HTML email by going to "Page" - "Send Page by Email", the left and right background borders seem to disappear!

Hi MSan_UK,

An HTML email is just an email with normal HTML code.  I don't know what program is prompting you to use "Page" - "Send Page by Email"

Sorry I may not have explained the problems fully. Basically we have a remplate page (link given in my previous comment) where we would like to update on monthly basis and then convert that page into an HTML email to be sent to the entire database. We can do this conversion through IE as follows:
1) Once on the page, click "Page"
2) Click "Send Page by email"

This then opens up your email application and loads the page into the email. The problem we have when this happens is the background images are not showing! The email client we use is MS Outlook 2007
Thanks

The concerned images are all using absolute paths. The rest of the email loads uo just fine including gifs and jpgs apart when they are being used as a background image
Are the background images set from a CSS file?  Is this CSS called with a full URL (which is different from an absolute path, by the way)?
