<p>&#8220;Season&#8217;s Greetings Vol. 2&#8243; contains templates offering Christmas greetings, invitations, wishlists for your kids to send to Santa, templates for one of those much-loved &#8220;annual news-roundup&#8221; emails.</p>
<p>Kwanzaa and Hanukkah are not forgotten.  Templates are included for those festivals too.</p>
<p>For those not in the know, Apple Mail&#8217;s stationery feature allows the app to send pre-made HTML emails, often quite fancy.  Many of the equinux templates allow for customization by the insertion of your own photos and user-definable fonts:</p>

<p>The pack costs €7,95 (c. USD 11.80) and is available from <a href="http://www.equinux.com/us/products/stationery/seasonsgreetings2.html" title="equinux - icards, ecards, Christmas greetings, Happy Holidays, Chanukah, Hanukah, Kwanza, Joyous, Joy, Mac Holidays, Apple Greetings, egreetings, Leopard Mail, Mac OS X Leopard, Snow Leopard, Stationery">equinux&#8217;s web site</a> <img src="http://www.hawkwings.net/images/extlink.jpg"/> where you can also see the company&#8217;s other stationery packs.</p>

<p>TUAW <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2005/11/30/decorate-your-mac-iconfactory-icons/">has posted</a> about <a href="http://www.ittpoi.com/sno/">Sn?É¬?</a> (a snow storm on your Desktop), <a href="http://arcticmac.home.comcast.net/apps/maclampsx.html">MacLampsX</a> (Christmas light for your Desktop) and <a href="http://iconfactory.com/SearchListing.asp?searchid=219&amp;query=christmas">Christmas icons at the Icon Factory</a>.</p>
<p><tag>Mail.app</tag> can easily join the party.     </p>
<p><a href="http://www.hawkwings.net/2005/10/17/change-apple-mails-dock-icon/">Changing <tag>Apple Mail</tag>&#8216;s Dock icon</a> is easy.  There are <a href="http://www.hawkwings.net/2005/10/19/139-different-apple-mail-icons/">lots of different stamps</a> for Mail.app, but you are not restricted to those.</p>
<p>You could use one of the icons from the Icon Factory, or <a href="http://www.resexcellence.com/archive_icons_01/holiday_01.shtml">a Christmas icon from ResExcellence</a> or one of the <a href="http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/icons_screensavers/classicchristmasicons.html">Classic Christmas icons</a> from Apple&#8217;s OS X Downloads.</p>
<p>For me, Christmas in recent years as meant (amongst other things) another instalment of the Lord of the Rings.  So my Mail.app is looking like Isildur&#8217;s Account (from <a href="http://iconfactory.com/preview.asp?type=search&amp;id=204&amp;query=LOTR">the LOTR icon set</a>):</p>
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.hawkwings.net/wp-content/wp-images/Mail_LOTR.jpg" height="125" width="410" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="10" alt="Mail_LOTR" title="Mail_LOTR" /></div>
<p>We will have to make do with Narnia this year, a fable not an epic. Oh, well.<strong>Similar Posts:</strong>
