Sample email using Flat Iron template in Email Editor 2

Hi there,

Has anyone used the Flat Iron template in Email Editor 2 and be willing to share an example of their creative? There is interest in using this template for  a campaign, but some folks want to see it in practice.

Many thanks,

Tori

And I'll try to find a few examples, I have chatted with a few customers who have started using this.

Justin - We are having significant issues with flat iron working across platforms.  It looks great on many OS/providers but Windows/Outlook renders everything skewed.  Any tips, tweaks, guidance or someone you can point me to?

Hey Ryan,

First, did you grab the updated file that I posted above? It's not yet update in our Template Picker (although it will be soon)?

Second, If you click that Litmus link above for "Flatiron" it's looking ok to me on Win/Outlook2010 Win/Outlook2016, Win/Outlook2007, etc...what are you seeing is the issue? One thing that is for sure true is you'll want to insert images that are similarly sized to the images that are in the template. Doesn't have to be exact but if you insert a massive image it won't work well. This is due to a product limitation that we're addressing in the next month or so.

So, if you let me know what you're seeing I can try to help you out more.

Hey Justin -

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

All the images I have made are to the exact measurements that are shown in

the sample images on the template. However here is how they look:

Gmail:

Outlook:

Unfortunately, I was not able to log into Box from that link you had

posted. Is there another way I can access the files?

Many thanks!!

Justin -

My images didn't post.  Here is the Outlook version all stretched out.

Here it is in Gmail which renders just like the draft and template:

I wasn't able to grab the files that you posted previously - can't log in to OneLogin.

Thanks!

Use this link to download new templates: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AnyeJJCbcDMjkQot_Tz-w0JleffL

Then let me know if you still see the issue when you use an image with the recommended size (640x276)
