emailbg.net, created by Stig Morten Myre of Campaign Monitor, is a nifty site/tool that allows you to create cross-client background images in a short amount of time for your email marketing campaigns. The resulting code works in quite a bunch of email clients, listed further below.
The way it works is like this:
– You have your background image hosted somewhere.
– You specify a fallback color (in HTML) .
– Copy and paste a bit of VML and HTML after the <body> tag, and an ending div before your </body> tag.
Done, you now have cross-client background images in many email clients. A simple yet effective way to improve your email marketing.
The supported email clients are:
- Android Mail
- AOL Web
- Apple Mail
- Gmail
- Hotmail
- iPad Mail
- iPhone Mail
- Lotus Notes 8
