Image Editor Overview 

The email editor includes an image editor that allows you to easily crop, rotate, resize, apply filters/frames, add stickers without leaving the editor.

Are SVG images supported?

As SVG images are not compatible with many email clients and browsers - you may see issues when using SVG images in a ContactMonkey Email. If used, SVG images may cause your template to fail when trying to insert or load it into the body of your email. We recommend sticking to JPG or PNG images when creating content within ContactMonkey. 

Accessing the Image Editor

When you select an image in the editor an "Apply effects & more" button is shown. Click on it to have access to a tool that allows you to edit the image in a variety of ways.
