Description
Can anyone recommend a theme that will produce a view that i can import into Campaign Monitor and display correctly (in all the different email readers)? My current Zen sub theme shows up blank in Outlook... I don't want to have to copy and paste my content into one of Campaign Monitor's pages.

Sorry for not answering this earlier. I doubt that there is a theme that will automatically be imported without trouble. Email clients are seriously antiquated and will need tables and inline styles. Even some styles don't work in some clients. Unfortunatly, you will just have to take the theme you are using, and create a newsletter template that will work for email clients, that looks like the theme you are using, but is done in a way that works for email clients.
Campaign Monitor itself has tons of help on creating newsletters. Here is a link to the css that is allowed in email clients http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/.

Thank you. I have found that theming a Campaign Monitor template and then pasting in my Views contents was not as painful as I had feared.
