Images give your marketing emails visual interest and help customers connect with your message. You can add your own photos, your business logo, or a banner, and include as many as you need to bring the campaign to life.
Note
The maximum image size is 5MB with a recommended width of 600 pixels.
Prerequisites: This feature requires an Email Marketing plan.
Before adding images, set up the campaign itself: choose your delivery method, add a subject line, and pick a theme and layout. The exact steps vary a little depending on the device you're using.

Hello! Every image I upload to the header is coming up blurry, i've tried different formats and sizes. Can you give the recommended size/format for clear uploads? I have attached a screenshot for reference.
Hi Gia, what size images are you currently uploading to your email campaign? I'd recommend using images larger than 1000 pixels (width).
Thanks,
Jamie
