We’re all about making it as easy and painless as possible for you to send attractive and impactful email campaigns.  Which is why we’ve integrated color themes into the Campaign Builder in MailChimp v3.4!  Right now there are three different categories– general color schemes, colleges and soccer– with definite plans to continue expanding these offerings.

Now, even the artistically challenged can quickly and easily create fully customizable, themed emails.
