Jason Bahre Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 Hi, I'm trying to send a small thumbnail in an email and Im not able to. I've been trying to get this to work for literally hours and still this just keeps happening. Everything looks fine in the email preview but when i send it to my self to test it i get this: I have check to make sure images are being displayed in gmail and it still wont show up. I've even tried Base64 encoding and it still keeps giving me a long string of code instead of linking directly to the image. Here is my html code for you to look at: <p style="line-height: 20.7999992370605px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:16px;">{member_name},</span></p><p style="line-height: 20.7999992370605px; text-align: center;"><big><span style="font-family: 'lucida sans unicode', 'lucida grande', sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Welcome to <b>The Makerboards!</b></span></span></big></p><p style="line-height: 20.7999992370605px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: 'lucida sans unicode', 'lucida grande', sans-serif;">Thank you for becoming a part of our growing maker community!

Im integrated with mandrill if that makes a difference. Please help, this is driving me absolutely crazy. It seems like such a simple thing to do but it absolutely refuses to work after sending.
Jason Bahre Posted June 10, 2015 Author Posted June 10, 2015 Bump. Anybody know what's going on here?
Jim M Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 What email client are you using to view the test in? Dummy question that has to be asked: in the client, are you enabling it to show images?
