Do you love your lawyer?
Kevin Garber (General Manager) - Feb 29, 2008
by Kevin Garber, General Manager
In her article “Subscribers Speak: Email Connections are Still Welcome, but Increasingly Fragile”

Beautiful on the Inside - HTML code and your emails
Dain Saxon (Digital Producer) - Feb 08, 2008
It’s not difficult to create great looking emails <start shamless plug> especially if you choose Melon Media to create them for you </end shamless plug> but how do your emails look ‘on the inside’?
The code that makes up your HTML email is an important, yet often neglected, aspect of email creation. It dictates to the Outlooks, Hotmails, Gmails and MacMails of this world how the email should be displayed, and though the concept may be difficult to appreciate, these browsers ‘see’ the code and then render it as it sees fit. So where you see the colour red, the browser sees #FF0000.

If you want your clients to see a clean, well designed email when they receive it - read on.
