Hi @VanessaS28. There's a bit more information that we'll need to assist you:
It is in Test/Preview mode and I am using a laptop to create my e-mails so no app.
What app are you using to view the email - as in when you check the test / live sendout, are you using the Gmail App, Apple Mail app, Outlook app, etc.?
Are you using dark mode? Is the background something that would be actually seen with the very thin sliver that most email apps let through when displaying the email?
We’re here to help you grow. With how-to tutorials, courses, getting-started guides, videos and step-by-step instructions to start and succeed with Constant Contact.
