Gallery: Tucson Downtown Alliance
Posted by David Greiner on October 9, 2006
Today we're featuring a great looking and cleverly built email newsletter from the master himself, Mark Wyner.
Designed for the Tucson Downtown Alliance, the email not only looks great, but it also includes a number of notable features under the hood. The table-less email is formatted completely via CSS and looks consistent in the majority of email clients. For those clients with poor CSS support it degrades gracefully to a simpler layout.
The benefit of this approach is a completely accessible email design that is more usable for those recipients with disabilities. For more details on creating these kinds of emails, check out Mark's article, which also includes a free template to get you started.

Gorgeous, clean design -- and I'll definitely be looking under the hood for CSS guidance.
Would it be possible to show what this design looks like in Gmail and Hotmail?

Simple and neat design... Love it! Whoever say design must be complex to look good, this is a classic example of a simple design that works!
Great job.

This design is beautiful and clean, but CSS based only and degrades badly in some online ISP email clients.
