http://imgur.com/a/fKv2H
I need banner with height 100px. and img inside it with height 120px. So the picture comeee out my banner for 20px;
Its for emails.
Also i need text column right before picture, so that text in column with background f4f4f4
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<img src="" style="margin-top:-20px;" />
</td>
<td>
banner text here
</td>
</tr>
</table>

You can do this two ways, one involved slicing the image into two and the other is using two more tables. I have added the code below for you to decide which one you want to go with.
Option 1:
This option has the image as one piece sitting in an outer table with 3 columns. The outer two columns have a table with white background to cater for the heads/hats popping out of the grey area. I have set the table width at 100% to show it will look.
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#f4f4f4">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#ffffff" style="height: 23px;" height="23"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
<td width="171" valign="top"><img src="http://i67.tinypic.com/sdk1hh.jpg" width="171" height="178" style="display: block;"></td>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#f4f4f4">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#ffffff" style="height: 23px;" height="23"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Option 2
For this option, you will need to slice the top part of the image (with white background) and place both the images in one table with two rows. Both images are centered and I have set the table width at 100% to show it will look.
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top" bgcolor="#ffffff"><img src="http://i64.tinypic.com/lz7f6.png" style="display: block;">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top" bgcolor="#f4f4f4"><img src="http://i68.tinypic.com/4qo1mu.png" style="display: block;"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
The final outcome for both codes should look like this:
Let me know which option best suits you.
** UPDATE **
Your question asked if you can have option 1 with image to the left and text on the right, here is the example:
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="171" valign="top" style="padding-left:20px;"><img src="http://i67.tinypic.com/sdk1hh.jpg" width="171" height="178" style="display: block;"></td>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#f4f4f4">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#ffffff" style="height: 23px;" height="23"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000000; padding:5px 10px;">This is some text for your email</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

I added colors so you could see that it was outside the table. I gave the image a height of 120px, width of auto. Made the td's have a max-height of 100px; And I left your -20px margin on the image.
<body style="background-color:pink">
<table style="background-color:orange;">
<tr>
<td style="max-height:100px; overflow-y:initial;">
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/ZESO4DT.png" style="margin-top:-20px; height:120px; width:auto;" />
</td>
<td style="max-height:100px;overflow-y:initial;">
banner text here
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>

How to horizontally align css table elements?

Trying to replicate this sort of design/structure:
Notice Below the two boxes on one side of the table and the one big one on the other!
How would I achieve this using table css? Here's my current code, which is vertically stacked:
<body>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" height="100%" width="100%" id="bodyTable">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
<table border="0" cellpadding="20" cellspacing="0" width="600" id="emailContainer">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
<table border="0" cellpadding="20" cellspacing="0" width="100%" id="emailHeader">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
This is where my body content goes.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
<table border="0" cellpadding="20" cellspacing="0" width="100%" id="emailBody">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
This is where my body content goes.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
<table border="0" cellpadding="20" cellspacing="0" width="100%" id="emailFooter">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">
This is where my body content goes.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>

</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
Any idea?:
Steven is right, in theory:
the “correct” way to center a table using CSS. Conforming browsers ought to center tables if the left and right margins are equal. The simplest way to accomplish this is to set the left and right margins to “auto.” Thus, one might write in a style sheet:
table
{
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
But the article mentioned in the beginning of this answer gives you all the other way to center a table.
An elegant css cross-browser solution:
This works in both MSIE 6 (Quirks and Standards), Mozilla, Opera and even Netscape 4.x without setting any explicit widths:
div.centered
{
text-align: center;
}
div.centered table
{
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
}
<div class="centered">
<table>
…
</table>
</div>
See this post
edit thats center this is horizontal just change the neccecery css or see here!

table colspan in emails

I'm trying to get the image to align to the right and the rows with text on the left in my table using colspan. This method usually works when the image is on the left but now I want it on the right it wont work. Please keep in mind this is for outlook email so you cannot use floats, align="right" etc.
heres my code:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600" style="width: 100%; max-width: 600px;">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="580" style="border: 1px solid;">
<tr>
<td style="font-size: 10px;">sdfsdfsdfsdfdsdfhhhhhhhhlklkjlkj</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>sdfsdf</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan="3" ><img src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/b083c967cd22e35ab4ce75e7a/images/e3c991a6-22c4-4ee2-a08d-7d23e30f8c29.png" alt="" width="400"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

You need to put the text and image in two columns (td)
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600" style="width: 100%; max-width: 600px;">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<tr>
<td align="left">
sdfsdfsdfsdfdsdfhhhhhhhhlklk
sdfsdf
</td>
<td rowspan="3" align="right">
<img src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/b083c967cd22e35ab4ce75e7a/images/e3c991a6-22c4-4ee2-a08d-7d23e30f8c29.png" alt="" width="400">
</td>
</tr>

<tr> height displaying incorrectly

I've been beating my head against a really stupid problem for the last while. Why can't I get the cell separating the two boxes to properly display at 9px?? I've done the math a couple of times and it works out, and yet in the cell w/ the arrow pointing towards it, it's adding extra height:
I actually appears to be doubling the 9 px height set for it (18px approx). Why?? This makes no sense.
<!-- BIG WRAPPER TABLE FOR CENTRAL CONTENT -->
<table width="700px" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="homepage">
<tr align="center">
<td>
<table width="681" height="451" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td rowspan="3" bgcolor="#FF66CC">Image will go here</td>
<td rowspan="3" width="9"> </td>
<td height="221" width="221" bgcolor="#3f7583">Text will go here</td>
</tr>
<tr height="9">
<td height="9" width="221" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="221" width="221" bgcolor="#CC0000">Image will go here</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- END BIG WRAPPER TABLE -->
this is because of your td
<td height="9" width="221" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> </td>
It is taking the height of your when rendered with normal font size, just remove it and it should work.
Here is the working fiddle
Instead of creating TD's for your spacing, why not just use the CellSpacing to accomplish what you need to do:
<table width="700px" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="homepage" style="font-size: 7pt;">
<tr align="center">
<td>
<table width="681" height="451" border="0" cellspacing="9" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" bgcolor="#FF66CC">Image will go here</td>
<td height="221" width="221" bgcolor="#3f7583">Text will go here</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="221" width="221" bgcolor="#CC0000">Image will go here</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- END BIG WRAPPER TABLE -->

The text I have on top in the table row is somehow affected by the second column below it..cant seem to have it take up the entire width of the table.

For starters, your first row consists of a td inside a tr that's inside ANOTHER td. If nothing else, that should probably be addressed.
Also, a bit unrelated to you original question, but it seems a bit redundant to have tables inside of your cells, when I'm not seeing any real benefit or function gained by the added code. You're styling your inner tables with the same things you can be applying to either the td or the image itself. At least in this particular application.
Just a thought.
UPDATED:
<table width="600" class="bodyContent" style="border: 1px solid #b8b7b7;margin-bottom: 20px;">

<td colspan="2">

First of all, you can not have the code looking like this:<td><tr><td>asdf</td></tr></td>. It the <tr> needs to be wrapped by <table>.

outlook 2007 ignoring cell padding

I have a table defined as
<table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="25" width="600">
<tr>
<td width="160" bgcolor="#efefef">Text</td>
<td width="340" bgcolor="#ffffff">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><img src="image.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
Here for the image I have a gray shaded area of width 210px and the rest is white.
Now this should get aliged with the first cell since it has width 160px + 50px (cellpadding) = 210px (in total)
However, outlook 2007 does not pick up this cellpadding. How can I get this to align in outlook 2007?
first of all I think your code should change
<table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="25" width="600">
<tr>
<td width="160" bgcolor="#efefef">Text</td>
<td width="340" bgcolor="#ffffff">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><img src="image.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
