Magento – Magento transactional email shows and old template even after styling it

email-templatesmagento-1.7

I made some inline styling changes on a Transactional Emails template. My changes are visible when I preview the Transactional emails template.
but the problem is when I send a test email to a gmail I still get an old version of the Transactional email template. My new changes don't show up.
I cleared the cache and I did Reindexing. but my My new Transactional email template doesn't show up.

Is there a step that i'm missing? or Is this problem related to Magento or the Server?

Make sure the emails you've edited are choosen under System > Configuration > Sales > Sales Emails > [type of email] > [type of email] Email Template / [type of email] for guests

Other emails like the one for welcoming a new user are spread out over the System > Configuration, for example under Customer Configuration > Create New Account Options. You'll have to locate the email templates you have updated.

By default all these dropdowns are on [...] (Default Template From Locale), select your modifications name from the dropdown
