I used to be able to do this. But now it seems to have to be a YouTube video to click that leads readers to YouTube to watch. That's cumbersome, when all I want to do is insert a quickie video or GIF.  Is this possible?   If you don't mind, here are my other gripes about the "new" newsletter format/tools: I do NOT want to have my newsletter automatically in the mobile format when folks view it on their phones. I want it the way I design it from the get-go and want to have the option to keep it that way for all views. When I do a newsletter now, the mobile version's single column layout is not aesthetically pleasing.  I don't like how I have to preview it and then also check the mobile version to ensure that my fonts aren't all whacky (different sizes, fonts). They look fine when I create, but I know they're messing up in the other views unless I check and change them. I wish we could copy any text block and paste it.  Can we? The older version of CC was that way, but I don't see that option easily now. I hope that you take these comments to heart. I have been a customer of yours for more than 10 years and I am now less confident and more frustrated creating my newsletters.   Thank you, Lisa Sperling ... View more

My experience with the new editing/building tools for the newsletters is that it is not as user-friendly and does not allow me to make a newsletter the way I like and did before.  What I hope you'll do is: ALLOW ACCOUNTS/USERS TO DISABLE THE AUTOMATIC MOBILE VIEW. The thing is, I don't like the way the mobile version puts everything into one column. The layout looks bad. Please allow me to disable it so folks can see the newsletter the way I build it, whether they view from a desktop or phone. I don't like how adding images can only be done so in stacked blocks. We used to be able to insert an image into the layout and have copy around it. When I make the newsletter issue, I now have to go into preview and then click mobile view to see how it'll actually turn out. In most cases, I have to correct fonts and spacing.  Please consider these very key changes. I've been a longtime customer for many years and absolutely hate the new way Constant Contact works from my end.   Thank you.  ... View more
