Email Standards Project: Bring the Bling
Now that we’ve officially launched the Email Standards Project, we want to spread the word as far as we can, so the right people hear about it. Every person who believes that email standards are important needs a way to show it on their site or brochure or forehead.
We thought about creating some ‘I support Email Standards’ type badges on our own, but then it occurred to us that we had tons of talented designers who probably have some fantastic ideas for pimping the project. All of that talent should not be wasted!
So this is your chance: Create a website badge, come up with a great tagline, design a t-shirt, sticker or tattoo - be as creative as you like in coming up with something that you and other people could use to spread the word and show support for the Email Standards Project.
You can grab a copy of the logo and get cracking, just make sure to keep it positive in nature. Send your work to us by email or leave a comment on the post and we will share them here. Whether you design something yourself, or just use someone’s design on your site, your support is really valuable.
This project is fantastic and well worth the effort! Having to explain to my client why we can’t make nice e-mails in Lotus Notes, or even if we do, it won’t look the same in any other client, gets old after a while. I will be checking up regularly!
Please upload a vector version of the logo so I (and other designers using Illustrator or Inkscape) can get started on some badges and such. The png won’t translate well for different sizes and media (t-shirts, etc). Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words Doug, much appreciated. We’re working on the vector version now and will have it posted shortly. I’ll make sure I update the post as soon as it’s available.
We can’t wait to see what you guys come up with.
Hey Doug, you’ll be pleased to know that 3 vector version of the ESP logo are now available for download. Make sure you let us know what you come up with.
Thanks Dave! The format is perfect. I will be sure to show you some ideas as soon as I have them done! Thanks for getting this up so quickly!
Dave -
So psyched to see this launch. The badge is on my <a href="http://iamyellingcanyouhearme.com>blog</a>, nothing fancy, but once I launch my business site, I do something better ... I also see T shirts in the making ;)
Wow ....
how about this - blog. The shame!
I too have had to explain to clients that their emails don’t arrive how they are sent so am an avid supporter of this cause
It would be nice to see Outlook 2003 and Express as well.
Agreed.. this is a ritous project.
I agree with Snorii Pall, It would be a great help to have outlook 2003 and express in there too.
Thanks for the kind words guys. Snorri and Sam, the purpose of the project is to help email client developers fix the current problems with their emails clients, so we’re only focusing on the latest versions of that email client so they know where to go from here.

Just found the project through the status message of a friend in skype. Interesting. RSS feed is in my reader now

Nicely done, very impressive. Keep up the good work and of course, keep sharing your ideas.
That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing, and as always, keep up the good work!
I had not heard of this project until… well, right now. After skimming through this site real quickly, I’ve learned that it’s a great thing. Excellent work!
It’s no secret to regular readers that I am not a fan of HTML email. For me it gets in the way of the actual message, and, in the all-too-common scenario when an HTML email is not accompanied by a plain-text version, leads to me indiscriminately deleting email without reading it. Most of the HTML email I get is spam anyway, so I doubt I’m missing much.
interesting
I think opening up your comments pages does get people knowing about your projects who wouldn’t normally find out, interesting?!
I look forward to seeing some developments in the ‘email standards project’ being set up by Campaign Monitor
It’s so good
thank you for helping me buy wow gold

Your project has so far reached a much larger stage.
goood
I’ve generally not been a fan of HTML email. The main reason is how much easier it makes phishing, link obfuscation, and other evil email scams. That said, I realize that it has a lot of good uses when employed for the forces of good. But making an HTML email that works as designed in Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, Gmail, and other email applications and services is difficult to impossible.
