Hi :)
Historical reasons really.  The company tries to avoids using anything
modern and generally prefers to do things the awkward way.

The newsletter is a bit basic in it's layout.  Generally we avoid using
images or fancy layouts or anything that might make it attractive.  Just a
few tiny things to make it awkward without having much effect on making it
look nice.

Regards from
Tom :)
