Lili or Matt or the wonderful web team, can something be done about the headers of emails sent from the community? They are ridiculously large and that shade of blue overpowers everything.
Here's a minute's worth of work in Paint of a before and after:
Even without changing the color, just removing all the empty space and aligning the text to the logo is enough to make this much better.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi tst,
We are taking a look at this. I was wondering what program you are using to view these emails, as the look does change depending on this.
For instance, what I see in Outlook 2013 is fitting with your request.
Thanks,

This is Gmail on Firefox, but I also see the same thing on IE 10 and it's on two separate machines with different resolutions and zoon levels.
This is the HTML for this section:
<table style="border:solid 2px #ccc;background:#dadada;width:100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding:8px" height="58px" bgcolor="#065FA3" valign="middle"> <h1 style="color:#ffffff;font:bold 22px Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin:0;display:block!important"> <a href="https://decibel.ni.com/content/index.jspa" style="text-decoration:none;color:#ffffff" target="_blank"><img class="CToWUd" src="http://www.ni.com/images/global/neutral/sbs/community_logo_24x24.gif" alt="National Instruments" style="padding:8px 8px 4px 4px" height="24" hspace="0" border="0" vspace="0" width="24"><span align="middle">Community</span></a> </h1> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
If I change the height on the TD element and the padding on the image, it looks better (although still not as nice as I would like), as you can see in the attached before and after HTML file:

This is how it renders in the Gmail app on my phone:

Hi tst,
Just wanted to let you know we're working on simplifying the header and testing it before deploying to production. We'll update here when it's live.
Thanks,

We updated the email headers in production for the user group community. Does it look better in your email client?

Yes, that worked. Now it looks slightly weird, but I'm sure I'll get used to it quickly.
Thanks.
