how to integrate html email templates in gmail

Question

I have made a html email template and I want to use it by default with gmail. I want when i press 'Compose mail' button the new email starts with html email already there and I just write some thing and send it and it is sent as it is.

One thing more that I want is when I click on 'reply' then again that html email gets inserted and I reply into html part and send it.

Tell me how, that can be possible and if its not possible what desktop email client should I use to achieve this.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
