 | Pick the best image |
- Transparent Image - the transparent image (available in gif format only) has a special quality. It enables an image to seem like it's floating on the Letter. Having no border removes the rectangularity of the original image giving it a clear-cut quality. This way the image will be a much more prominent part of the Letter.

- Seamless tiling - Many background images can be constructed from a small pattern that repeats itself, much like the tiles on your wall or floor at home (which is why this technique is called 'tiling'). The huge benefit to tiling is that you can make a large background with one small image making your Letter much lighter. To tile your background or other regions in your Letter background, make sure that you choose a small image that matches seamlessly on all sides so that every edge matches. Try to make the image as seamless as possible so that all you can see is a pattern and not the edges.

- Object in image should be in the highest quality available - IncrediMail makes sure that the images used are of high quality and have an object that is focused and clear.
