Everyone loves Constant Contact.

It’s a simple easy-to-use tool that I have used to help many clients communicate periodically with their customers.

One of the drawbacks of using Constant Contact though is that the subscriber forms they are  just plain ugly.

Fortunately, Constant Contact has made it possible to create  a  normal-looking webform, and put it on your website through the use of their API.

Details available at http://developer.constantcontact.com/ – you just need to sign up to get your API credentials.

With a little manipulation of the PHP, a little HTML, and a little .CSS, I was able to make the subscription form for my client match their branding and seamlessly integrate with the rest of their website.
