None of my gradients are showing properly.

Neither tcat nor thead are working properly. My header image displays just fine.

Also my post icons show up asred X's.

Any ideas what I should check?

Thanks!

Use the GAZ ACP inline style info menu to set inline CSS for the newsletters, and make all image links full http:// links. Load the CSS for each style, and then edit the links you see in the text boxes. More information about this can be found here (http://www.thevbgeek.com/geeki/index.php/Styles_and_templates_in_GAZ).

It still doesn't seem to be working.

Make sure you use absolute http:// links, not relative links, do not use JavaScript, use inline CSS, not external CSS files, etcetera. Same goes for the gaz_html_header and/or gaz_html_navbar and/or gaz_html_footer templates. I have verified that if the CSS and GAZ templates are edited properly, the newsletter looks correct, though there are certain email readers that will strip out images and CSS as described here (http://www.thevbgeek.com/geeki/index.php/Styles_and_templates_in_GAZ) and there isn't anything you can do, as you don't have control over the email reader. After you edit CSS or templates, generate new data under the ACP -> GAZ -> Issues -> click issue link. If you still cannot get the images to show, try a different email reader and look at the HTML source of the page for broken images to see from where the image is being called. They need to be the full http:// link, not relative links, and if need be, consider using 'prefix paths' under the GAZ ACP settings.
