Retro 1.0 - Responsive Email Themebuilder Access

Header image animation and client compatibility

The header image will animate in Apple mail, iPhone and iPad, with other email clients displaying a normal header image without animation. The animation is coded with CSS3 Keyframes. MailChimp doesn’t accept CSS3 Keyframes, so the header image won’t animate in MailChimp code.

Theme Builder

Regarding the frequent question where to find the full version of our themebuilder here’s a quick explanation: In the download you’ll see a folder called Themebuilder; open it and click on the link to get access to the full unlocked themebuilder. Note: The Themebuilder files aren’t included, the download includes a link which gives you access to the Themebuilder.

Font Compatibility

Email Clients that support custom web fonts: iOS Mail, Apple Mail, Android (default client), Thunderbird. Other clients will show a standard fallback webfont.

Premium Fonts

RocketWay Email Templates are supporting the Premium Proxima Nova font. We own a license which makes it legal to let RocketWay customers use this font in their email templates. The only condition is that these fonts are hosted on our server.

Responsiveness

The HTML includes inline CSS and is coded with media queries. These media queries handle responsiveness based on the devices screen size. Attached a screenshot which shows you the devices supporting media queries.

Campaign Monitor Support

If you imported a template in Campaign Monitor, you are able to edit texts, buttons and images. We didn’t include repeater tags and layout tags so be aware not all features will be available in their builder.
