HTML email bg problem

Hi,

Two images on my html email are not displaying in Gmail. These are being called by the following ways:

<body style=“margin: 0; padding: 0; background: #ff4738 url(http://www.website.com/december/images/bg_email.jpg) no-repeat center top;” bgcolor=“#f3dc74”>

<td style=“margin: 0; padding: 40px 0 0; background: #c89c22 url(http://www.website.com/december/images/bg_header.jpg) no-repeat center top” align=“center” valign=“top”>

I don’t really want to have to re-code, is there a quick solution?

Thanks :slight_smile:

CSS in HTML emails is very buggy. If you look at this support page, you’ll see that bg images in Gmail are very flaky:

Bottom line is, you can’t rely on them, and they are better avoided in email.
