Here are a few email design tips to help you look like a pro. --- Use Inline styles: ----------------------------- Always use "inline" CSS styles when designing an email template. Do not place CSS styles in the HTML tag, and do not link to external CSS files. Many email clients cannot use head tag CSS or external files. An example of an "inline" CSS style for a paragraph is:

Hello user

. This means your design style is always "inline" with the page elements. Inline styles guarantee your created HTML email will always look nice in all email clients. --- Use a table for the email body contents: ------- The body of your email should always be contained in a to ensure design layout consistency. All Divs, paragraphs etc should be inside the table. Take a look at the included example templates for correct layout using tables, Divs and inline CSS. --- Do not use inserted images in the reminders: --- Password Reminder PRO does not allow using images directly in the email reminders! All email clients block displaying of images, and many anti-spam gateways block emails that contain images. Using images in the email increases image size and takes up space on your mail server storage. If you need to use images in your reminder emails to users, host the images on an external web server and place links to the images in the email body. This will guarantee high-deliverability of the reminders to users and keep the message size small. ---------------------------------------------------- Thanks, SysOp Tools Dev Team
