Upload New Template in VR

Hi Josh,

Great question -- here's what we did with our GreenMadeSimple newsletter:

-- retained a designer to create the basic template we use (she used Dreamweaver to create it);
-- imported that into our VR account using the canvas tool (copy and paste under the "Edit Source" tab);
-- uploaded the accompanying images into the Media Library of our account and linked the images to the template;
-- made a copy of that template once it was set up to create our newsletter (we've kept that first template as a master, and then make a copy each time we use it to avoid any HTML "ghosts" carrying over from multiple uses of the same template).

You might want to check out the tutorials on VR's How to Do Everything site for more detailed information about creating emails using the canvas tool. Here's a link to that section of the site: http://help.verticalresponse.com/emails/

You may also want to attend next Tuesday's webinar, Getting Started with VerticalResponse, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific. Richard Huffaker, VR's Education & Training Manager, walks through the various features of VR and takes questions from participants.

If you have any questions, post them here in this Forum thread or contact Customer Support at 1-866-683-7842, Monday - Friday, 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

Hope that's helpful! --Chris.
