[Pro] Email - click to show images

I hope I am not being redundant here…

What do I need to do to create a “click to show images” button for email blasts?

Thanks!

Usually, a text link to a static Web page somewhere on a public
server. “Want to see this message with 800K of wizzy graphics, instead
of text? Click this link here: …”

If a person has disabled images in their e-mail software, then nothing
you do or ask them to do will un-do that preference. And if you make a
graphic button for them to click to visit the all-singing-all-dancing
image-heavy message, then it’s a Catch-22 – they’ve disabled images,
so they won’t see your pretty button, only (maybe) the alt text for
the image in an empty rectangle.

Their software will probably show a button of its own, asking if the
user wants to display the images, but that’s a part of the mail
software, not your message content.

Thanks.

Let’s forget the word, “button” and use hyperlink instead…
