Distributed Image Block

To help your Marketing Cloud Engagement business users personalize a message, they can choose their own image using the distributed image block and select the image to use in a message. Options include traditional images, offers, head shots, and more.

Keep these design considerations in mind:

  • Distributed Marketing only supports HTTPS images. Configure your custom hosting domain to serve up HTTPS secured links.
  • Images default to scale-to-fit, centered in the block area. This setting can't be modified.
    Note
    Note There's a known issue where Outlook doesn't respect scale-to-fit and displays an image's true dimension.
  • The first image in the block is the default image, which is used when the business user doesn’t specify a different image.
  • Users who provide a custom image via a URL can define a custom redirect link URL. The redirect opens when the recipient clicks the image.
  • If the admin enables this option, users can add images from their computer.
  • Image Content Block Options
    Admins can set up an image library for users to choose from up to 12 images. Or, to add their own, they can use a URL or upload an image from their computer.
