Status: offline 		When I email my Flyer as a JPG it does not fill the entire span of the email page as an Ad should. Is there any way to correct this?

Status: offline 		Sorry, Yes I believe that would be embedded. I do not want it as an attachment as many customers will not open an attachment. I go to Compose and select photo to insert the JPG file into the email itself. When the customer opens the email from me the Ad presents itself in the body as I would like it to but it does not span the full width of the email and looks odd.

To force an image to span the width of the email, your email program must allow editing of the html. i.e. <img src="embed path of picture here.jpg" width="100%">

When you setup a new account just put in your gmail addy and password and you will get better results on your email project.

For a professional looking email ad campaign (like the e-newsletters we subscribe to), an email marketing program is required. There are online companies that provide all the tools and support you need for a monthly fee, around $15 and up. Or you can buy an email campaign program for $30 like this one:

The program gives you professional looking, easy-to-customize templates. This could give you a lot more options in presenting your material, than just embedding a JPG.
