And exactly what we needed in order to make the newsletter useful for people in the developing world with limited connectivity - they cant be going back and forth between the newsletter and the web for each story, so this way I get to offer a download of the full text version for them. Thanks. You really helped us meet a need. This is brilliant.

Or may I use this link in future campaigns?Thanks, Calin How long does the file “exists” on your server after I’ve uploaded it?

And one more thing, after I upload it, it gave a link, something like:

ttp://gallery.mailchimp.com/583c642ebba725b983bbe8443/files/filename.file

The “583c642ebba725b983bbe8443″ it’s variable? Or may I use this link in future campaigns?

Thanks,
Calin

I suspect that's the problem as I'm not seeing anything that looks at all like the screenshot. The text in the HTML section is text with tags, which implies that it's in non-visual mode.It's not a huge deal as we don't care that much about the click statistics, I was mainly curious why my screen wasn't matching what you described.Thanks,John Hi, Ben,

After highlighting some text in the welcome email, you click the link icon, then in the next window, make sure you click the "upload" tab. If you're not getting that, then we're talking about two different areas of the app, and it might be best to ask our support team to follow along and see exactly what you're trying to do.Screenshot: http://blog.mailchimp.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/upload-tab.jpg Hmm, the default when editing your final welcome emails actually *is* the visual design mode.
