Email design treasure troves

Thanks to Ivan Brezak Brkan for pointing me to what looks like a fabulous new email design resource...

Spam Meltdown is a new blog created to "showcase finely crafted HTML emails."

The first few posts already highlight dozens of designs, including a comprehensive look at welcome messages. The latter have picked up a lot of media attention recently, as surveys show many marketers still don't use them. Even though they are such a low-hanging relationship fruit that you have to bend down to pick them.

The latest BrontoFire has evaluations of four sample welcome messages. And remember that even those of you without big company tools and resources can still send effective welcomes.

Spam Meltdown means we now have a triumvirate of design galleries to draw inspiration from. The other two are the Campaign Monitor Gallery and the new-look Retail Email Blog.

Also check out the wider list of email marketing blogs for those that regularly feature design critiques.

Thanks for mentioning SpamMeltdown. I like the two other galleries you mentioned. I love how they focus on a single email and talk about it. Obviously I focus on collecting lots of samples. I think both methods have value.
