Ability to insert image slide show or collage

I insert photos in every e-mail we send (we are an event florist).  Sometimes I have to create a collage on another site then upload it because the layouts in Constant Contact don't allow for cohesive photo sharing!!  Would love an option to insert a photo collage or slideshow to showcase our floral designs :smileyface: Thanks for the consideration!:smileywink:

Thanks for the feedback everyone! We're going through the process of updating the statuses of all our ideas in hopes of making it more clear where features stand in the product pipeline. There are no immediate plans in the works for this, but we recognize and have done some preliminary research into this request. We found that many of our customers were already using Canva to create their graphics, which influenced the decision for the Canva integration. This should make it easy to create and use collages, but we're still open to feedback on whether this is enough or if there should be more exploration of a feature like this. Please continue to comment and provide any use cases that would be helpful.

Count me in as someone who would like to see this feature added.

I want the same thing for my business.  I very much want a template for a picture collage.

Ditto!

Because of how images display in an email on mobile (taking up the entire screen), it would be really cool to have a module that let you choose multiple images that then rotated/shuffled within the same area. Sometimes we want to show off 3-4 images, but then that makes the reader have to scroll for a while and can cause them to lose interest in the email. This would be awesome!

We would also like to see this feature added. Plus, seems petty to redact the name of the competitor software that does have the feature...

Please write code that will enable one to integrate photos into a moving gallery i.e. slide show.

Thank you very much.

Hi @National

 

At this time PowerPoints can only be inserted into an email campaign through a document link.

what's the status on this? Still doesn't look like you can do a slideshow. The integration with both Canva and Vimeo have been great, but a slideshow would be absolutely fantastic!

Is there an update for having an automatic carousel moving in the email? I would love to have a slideshow automatically playing without having to go the extra mile and make a gif - too time consuming.
