Show HN: Tool to Convert Images to Tables for Email
- kogir 15y agoIt actually works reasonably well too. AOL, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Outlook Web Access, plus Apple Mail, Thunderbird, and Outlook XP-2010.
- trussi 15y agoQuite interesting! At first, I didn't understand why you only wanted a 200x200 image. I expected it to cut a big picture up into smaller squares and lay them out in a table. But I was wrong! :) It actually creates a 200 row by 200 column table and changes the background of each cell to match the image's color at that pixel. I'd recommend improving the description of the service on the site. It took me a couple tries to get it to work (I used too big of a picture), but finally got it to work. Glad I did. Thanks for sharing.
- sunils34 15y agoWow this is really cool! I imagine you should be able to take an image and render it with CSS3 rather than tables. Is that the next step :)?
- kogir 15y agoMost email clients won't take kindly to CSS that isn't inline. I also tried data URLs and inline attachments before going the table route.
- egfx 15y agoIs this using the default Bootstrap site design? Like the tool. I'm using it already.
