Why are you defining a background color and image with the table if you have already defined the background for the BODY? |
|
ok, I took the background out of the main <table> and now in my body tag have:
<body marginheight="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" bgcolor="#eaeaea" leftmargin="0" background-image: url(' http://www.meadowlarkco.com/images/bf.gif'); background-color: #EAEAEA;>
it still is not showing my background image, on the color #eaeaea |

ok, I think I got it to where its showing what I want, but I added my company logo next to the part which shows "Meadow Lark in Motion" but its not aligning up correctly, could someone take a look Im not sure if the image is too large for the table its within?

You should try cleaning up a few other things first. They might help with the other problems that you perceive.

For example, your HEAD is not considered closed because you are missing a closing bracket on your stylesheet. |
|
I closed the stylesheet and this was just a template which I used and edited, so Im just trying to get so my logo is even with my "Meadow Lark in Motion" |
|
Why couldn't "Meadow Lark in Motion" also be a graphic? You could use a single image file for the masthead that includes the 'motion' and the logo. Then you could cut down a bit on the excessive nested tables. Your entire page could consist of a single table with 3 rows (header, content, footer) and 2 cols (in the content row). The extra tables you have are what are blowing your mind. They are blowing my mind too. You could do this much more simply. |
|
is there a way to do it as is...with inserting a graphic to the right of the "meadow lark in motion" text? |

"As is" is a broken state. So I'm not sure how to fix something but still keep it in a broken state. If you do not have an image editing program, get GIMP for free.
Whatever vertical text alignment (that you think you may be able to define) may not be respected in all email programs. That is why most HTML mail designers will make a masthead from an image file.
The more complex you make this in HTML, the more opportunity there is for a mail client to wreck the output. |

well I tried using a background image on my <td> and that didn't work as it looks as though its not supported with outlook. |

Why does the TD need a background image? Just drop in an image as the content of the cell. |

Hi,
try repalcing the <td> with MEADOW LARK IN MOTION in
with this :
[code]
<td valign="top" colspan="2">
<p style="float:left; padding-left: 50px; margin-top:15px; font-size: 25px;font-family: georgia; font-style: italic;">Meadow Lark In Motion</p>
<img src=" http://www.meadowlarkco.com/images/logocompanies.p..." style="padding-left: 30px;">
</td>
[code]
Havin' fun with this one!!
Steve (let me know if it worked for you ) |
