title: Weird frame around the image in MS Outlook 2013 (Windows 7)
body: <p>I'm using the image as a background in my HTML-email, to get the ability to allocate text and button over the top layer of the image and it is working fine for every email client beside the MS Outlook 2013 on Windows 7. </p>
  
  <p>For some reason, once the user got the email and click on the button (or wherever image area) there is weird frame appears around the image and that frame looks like user can edit that image (rotate or resize), but he can't, it's just a frame. </p>
  
  <p>I can't figure out how can I get rid of that frame. Another problem is the Litmus doesn't show any issue with the code so it's kina like impossible to fix without actual sending. Please help!</p>
  
  <p>Using all header as one image isn't an option because the client requires the ability to change the text over himself. </p>
  
  <p>Below the part of the code for the header only but here is the link on the code of the entire email <a href="https://pastebin.com/edYR2eVm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://pastebin.com/edYR2eVm</a> and the Litmus project <a href="https://litmus.com/builder/da4ef27" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://litmus.com/builder/da4ef27</a></p>
