two theme questions…

Hi, heres my site http://bringingbalance.co.uk/dir/?page_id=102

I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to turn an email address thats displayed into a link that will open up the users default email to send a message.

And secondly i was wondering if anyone knows how i can use this image in the footer
