Quick Tip: Testing your email design with images turned off
Posted by David Greiner on June 19, 2005
As a follow up to the last post on dealing with images not loading by default, Damien Buckley sent in a great tip for quickly testing how your email design will look with images turned off.
Using the Firefox Web Developer Extension, you can disable the images in your HTML with 2 clicks. This makes it really easy to update and preview your email on the fly as you work towards a design that works with images on and off.
There are loads of other cool features that this extension offers web developers, so if you haven't already, download it now.

Internet Explorer testers don't have to be left out in the cold - NILS has their great Web Accessibilty Toolbar also.

For any web designer/developer who doesn't have a developer toolbar of any kind (which you should), you could temporarily rename your images folder.
Got anything to add?
