Table inception… ha! 🙂

Great points, Mike, thanks for commenting!

Also, if you want images to look good on newer monitors that have a higher pixel density then you need to save your images as 2x the normal size and then force resize them in the email and if you don’t do that right, Outlook (especially) will show the image at full size and blow up the rest of your beautiful email.

Also, please note that you can’t use an image for a background in Outlook. Outlook will instead fall back to whatever color is set, so keep that in mind when you want to drop live text over an image: It’ll look good in Gmail, but you need to set a fallback solid color that looks nice with the rest of the email. My suggestion is to avoid that situation altogether and just let images have their impact and keep the text above/below. Or, for buttons, just use a table and text.

Remember, email design is like table inception: we must go deeper.
