Layout/Block options

I have several clients that are wanting to move to another email platform because they feel the templates are more "fresh and hip".  After watching a training in that program, I really didn't see anything it can do that CTCT can't, however....

 

One of the "block layouts" that they like is the one below....where there is a picture in the background with text/links overlapping it.  I don't see any templates in CTCT that have this type of layout.  

 

If anyone knows if/how I can duplicate this in CTCT, please share!!

Hello @EllenS41 ,

 

This wouldn't be possible without it being wholly an image- e.g. something designed in a program like Canva and then imported as an image to insert. To be quite honest, even from major retailers I haven't seen this kind of layout without the entire thing being a clickable image anyway. None of the emails I receive between work and my personal addresses have incorporated something like this- it's always something built directly into the website, or as part of an actual document.

Okay perhaps this is something I can put on my wish list for a future release.  I really do like that way it looks...and having to create it all in Canva would be time consuming, and then not easily editable for everyone.
