It's Friday morning, and again I seem to be having the perennial client hand wringing discussion ritual because people can't see the client's lovely email images because they have images switched off in their email client.<p>It doesn't matter how many times I tell the client to just send nicely written plain text emails. Clients love seeing their logos and products in massive size and multicolour.<p>There seem to be no stats which can reassure clients, most studies seem to suggest roughly 50% of people don't see images. A stat I will avoid burdening clients with as it will only worsen their marketing paranoia.<p>So, HN, is there any argument or reasoning I can use to convince clients that they should just get over this compulsion to shove images down people's virtual throats?<p>Or at least a way to end these discussions as soon as possible so I'm not wasting time babysitting corporate egos.
Calm your attitude, they made a decision on what is important to them, just as did you. Their deciding differently doesn't make you right and them wrong.<p>Give them the statistics and let them decide.
