Hi

A quick question really...

I have made my emails to members resemble my sites templates but I wanted to know if it is ok to add images which load from my site to the emails... I have gotten this to work but I was wondering if their was any security issues with this..?

Also I have done basic html with the images for example

Code: [Hide] [Select]

<img src="http://www.domain.com/templates/theme/images/bacgrounds/tan/btopl.png" width="14" height="40" alt="hg" />

is their an easier way of doing this ... ? can you add code in the email script so that it will pick up your sites full url..?

Thanks for any help...

Not sure if this is what you are after ?

ACP > Site >

Email Signature
This text will be attached to all emails sent from the board.

Add "example": <a href="http://themes.com/ip/"><img src="http://themes.com/Smilies/lge_calvin2b.gif" />Click Me</a>

This will add an image link to your "Sent from the Board" emails. "Click Me" is optional.

Hi thanks for the reply... I managed to figure this out... though I must learn to post more detail and explain myself better when asking for help...:)

Here is the solution I found which was already there...

In language/email/htmlhtml_mail_header.tpl

you have {ROOT}templates/common/images/bg_code_header.gif) top left no-repeat;

the {ROOT} was the part I was after as It saved me writing out the url each time...

Thanks for the help.
