I would like to do some basic customisations to my Emails such as:

- Rounded Buttons (rounded everything tbh)
- Increase Logo Size on Email Digest

How can this be done effectively? I’ve already tried to input Custom CSS into my Email Styling, but that’s caused problems with Server Errors & lack of Deliverability.

This is my simple custom code:

```plaintext
a, span {
border-radius: 20px !important;
}

img:not([alt="replies"], [alt="likes"]) {
border-radius: 8px !important;
}

div div[style*="margin-bottom:25px"] div[style*="padding-top:5px"] {
background-color: unset !important;
padding-top: 15px !important;
}

img[alt="Company"] {
height: 75px !important;
}

```

I expect that Discourse doesn’t like my CSS attribute targeting, but I felt forced to do them since there are no CSS classes available in the Email Templates. Does anyone have any better method to round things off and increase that logo size?

I’m not opposed to rewriting the Email HTML if it’s no hassle to overwrite the files and not lose them via updating etc.

Have you see this? Not sure if it would work for your case, but might be worth a try 🤔
