Answer:
Note: Not all email systems support background images. When images are not supported in an email system, the background color will be used instead of the image. It is recommended that you design the colors of your template before applying any background images to make sure that you still like the way it looks in the event that the image cannot display.
To add a background image to a row:
- In the template editor, hover your mouse over either the far left or far right side of the template on the row you want to edit, making sure that the box that appears around the row while hovering is labeled “Structure”, then click to select the row
- Toggle the option for “Row background image”
- Click Change image
- Click the Insert button for the image you would like to use
Note: If there is no image you would like to use, you can upload one. For more information, refer to the following knowledgebase article:

- Under the Url field, select one or more of the following options as desired:
- Full width: When selected, if the image chosen is wide enough, it will take up the full width of the row. If not selected, the image will only be as wide as the content area
- Repeat: When selected, if the image chosen is small enough, it will appear multiple times as tiles to fill up the row. If not selected, the image will appear once
- Center: Centers the image in the template
- Click Save when you're done to save the changes
