Brand Standards: Email
Header & Banner Image
Header
- Use the white horizontal one-line main university logo centered and at the top of all emails (not your department’s, division’s, campus’s logo)
- Size, constrain to 250px wide
- Padding: 8px top and both sides, 14px bottom
- Do not scale to fit
- Keep the background default color as Aggie Blue to contrast the white logo header
Banner Image
- You may include a web-optimized image beneath the logo
- 700px wide by 300px tall for fast loading
- Choose an approved image that resonates with the audience and is relevant to the content of the email you are sending
- See USU photo standards and galleries for image selection
- If adding text to the image, keep your contrast high and your font sizes reasonable
- Keep text over images to no more than 3-5 words
- Alt Text: Required for all images/graphics
- Remember, an email banner is not meant to be a comprehensive communication piece. Instead, it's a strategic hook designed to capture attention and entice readers to explore further
