However, the first example presumes a web based image. To use an embedded image, use the cid: reference. Here is the first example from the above link: <html> <body background="bgimage.jpg"> <h1>Hello world!</h1> <p><a href="http://www.w3schools.com">Visit W3Schools.com!</a></p> </body> </html> Here it is with the cid: reference. You can then include your background image with -embed option. <html> <body background="cid:bgimage.jpg"> <h1>Hello world!</h1> <p><a href="http://www.w3schools.com">Visit W3Schools.com!</a></p> </body> </html> Chip -------- Original message -------- From: "'Skand Bhargava' [email protected] [blat]" Date:01/01/2017 1:36 PM (GMT-07:00) To: [email protected] Subject: [blat] Stationery Hi Can we send stationery style emails using blat?
