Interactive images in emails - easily tracked?

Hi community

We are going to be using interactive images inside our emails soon (for those email clients that support interactive of course). We're going to be using carousels and hotspots within email modules.

Having not used these before, I was wondering how these go with tracking inside Marketo? I'm assuming we can load individual URLS to the image carousels so that should be pretty straightforward, but if somebody clicks on a hotspot in the email, is this something that can be easily tracked?

Any info/gotchas/tips/tricks from folks who have used these before would be appreciated!

Thanks

Di

Long as it's still an HTML <a> under the hood, then it'll be rewritten to bounce off the tracking server.

Needless to say, you must avoid effects that, due to partial support, end up looking fancy but making the link too tiny/invisible to be practically accessible (much as you can make the same mistake on a webpage).
