Headings and screenshots also need downsized in email

Hi @Jason Stone (Logos) .

Thanks again for adjusting the size of the Logo in the weekly digest email.

Apparently it was not applied to all areas though. Here is a sample from this announcement which completely fills the viewing window in Outlook, causing me to have to scroll completely horizontally and vertically in order to read it.

.

Another issue is the view of screenshots which completely fill the viewing window in Outlook, causing me to have to scroll horizontally and vertically in order to read it.

Too soon old. Too late smart.

    @Bill, the email banner would be different than the banner found in that event — two unique designs there. And given our event calendar just went live this week, we may have a couple of bumps (such as designs in the email notifications). We'll watch and make improvements. Thank you for mentioning the need for revisions there!

    @Jason Stone (Logos) thank you. Did you see I commented about screenshots having the same problem?

    @Bill, do you mean screenshots in your email? Are you able to forward an example of this to community@logos.com?

    FWIW - I've been biting my tongue for months now regarding the new look graphics that have accompanied the other recent changes in the platform (much of which I see as good for everyone involved). It's not just the email content, it's also the entire website, including the new Community layout. Everything is TOO BIG.

    I get that this approach is fashionable these days, but you need a monitor the size of a barn to navigate the site these days without feeling claustrophobic. More pointedly, you need to run your monitor(s) at 4K resolution unless you want to be constantly scrolling your screen back and forth to try to see things, or setting your browser zoom so small you can't read it anyway.

    I don't know what percentage of the Logos/Verbum user community is running 4K graphics on their desktops - or especially on their laptops! Probably not all that many, frankly. But is seems likely to me that the Faithlife web design people are, and maybe they think everyone else does, too??

    @John W Gillis, would you mind attaching a screenshot of what you're seeing when you have a moment? I want to learn more. Thank you.

    I see! That image came through your inbox as large because it was uploaded to the community as large. When uploading images, users can adjust their size (e.g., Small, Medium, or large). I'll see if we can adjust the default upload size so as not to disrupt browsing experiences on the forums and in our inboxes. Great catch!
