Animated design?

Constant Contact has many professionally-designed templates. However, the standard email editor can’t do complex animations like an envelope opening to reveal an invitation because of differences between different email clients (like Gmail, Outlook, etc.).

However, there are a couple of pathways you can take to achieve a similar or custom-designed effect:

1. You could try using gifs in your email

2. Take a look at some of our animated gif email templates and customize them to your specifications

3. Design a "Card" Image: You could design the invitation as a beautiful, single image that resembles a card, and then use the email editor to frame it within your email template. You can upload images to your Library first.

4. Constant Contact offers Animated Design services where a professional designer can create an animated graphic tailored to your needs.
