I just started to use Constant Contact. Once I can get my newsletter to work (I am not very html wise, and the ByRequest newsletters don't work w/o tweaking), - once the newsletter will work, it saves me soooo much time in sending out! I do love seeing how many, and which people open it, click on things/links from my newsletter. It is very cool.

LOVE By request's look and content. I'm starting to think I need to choose one or the other? Does anyone use Constant Contact with another newsletter without problem? Or have another email service? Before constant contact it would take me about 2 hours to send out newsletters (and I hated/dreaded) having to do it. Then there were the bouncebacks...

Just wondering what everyone is doing
Susan :)

Susan, I just got your newsletter email and none of the pictures show. They are just boxes with the little red stars in the corners that happen when a picture isn't displayable.

Yup, I'm frustrated. Took forever for them to accept the newsletter and the pictures don't work. *sigh* Not sure why not. The customer service won't give me tech help.

I use Constant Contact with Tasty Tidbits. I just use the info from Tasty Tidbits and format it into Constant Contact. It is time consuming.

Debi, do you have to do alot of formatting? Mine says it doesn't except the "..." code, so then I have to try to remember how to find it. This time the pictures didn't work b/c of something I did.

*sigh*

I guess I do. I cut and paste the info into one of the newsletter formats in Constant Contact. When using Constant Contact, you can't add pictures unless you upload them, copying won't work so I don't use all the same pictures. I select pics from either Consultant's Corner or Microsoft Cip Gallery.

It just means I post a lot. I think it shows up at like 75 posts.
