Email template facebook button

Hello
I wish to add a Facebook share button to an email template.
Can anyone help?
Is it possible?
Has anyone done it?
Thanx

This is the first link I came across through a quick google search.  You would just need to include this (and adjust the image and link as necessary in your email template).   http://provientmarketing.com/2010/09/how-to-build-a-facebook-share-button-in-an-email/

Thank you James.
It looks simple enough but its not.
How do you adjust the image as a link in an email tempalte?

Yehuda, here's a document on how to add images to VF:

To make the image a link, you'd surround it with an anchor tag.. e.g. <a href="http://facebooksharelink"><img src="urlforimage" /></a>

Thank you again James.
Here is what I did:
Upload Facebook button image to documents
->communication templates
->mail templates
->custom (with stationary)
And added the Facebook button there - img tag wrapped in an href
Thank you
