For Blurt, I tried to cheat by simply sending images, but recently learned that some recipients do not have them properly displayed. 😕 I also want to start sending weekly emails with a summary of users' writing stats, but not sure how to format the HTML to have it display the data properly. Se...

I use https://vectr.com with different fonts & add some text shadows to it & export it using SVG. Now that Vectr added ads & its irritated me, I've deleted it & switched to Sketch for making some cool logos 😜
