Because of the way Moodle themes work courses can all start to look the same. One way around this is to use email newsletter templates (there are many free available on the internet) as a header for your course. This has been very well received by our students and definitely give a more polished impression of your course.
We use the template to provide useful information about the course such as schemes of work, who the tutors are and crucially because we have very long courses, section links to different topics.
It does require a little work uploading the embedded images and updating the src attributes of the image tags to point to the uploaded images in the files area. Tip: keep all your image files for the template in a subfolder.
You can find a variety of free newsletters here
