I would recommend filling in real address details in Mailchimp. After I entered my email and was taken to the confirmation page I immediately regretted it when I saw the "1234 B St LA, California 90210" address. Not a good signal for legitimacy.
Like others, I also like to see a sample before sign-up. Also, there need to be assurance that given email won't be used for other purposes/shared with others/spam ...etc.
Still looking into this. It's weird. It looks good in FF on my localhost, but I see what you're talking about when it's on the live server. EDIT: Fixed. It was a CSS bug
@everyone asking for a sample. I have no intention of spamming you. There aren't any examples because it's a new newsletter. There is nothing to show yet. I'll add an archive section to the site and post old newsletters a few days after I send them out.
Those that have signed up, thank you! You should see the first newsletter later next week.
I need inspiration at specific time and for that a periodic email is not going to cater me well. Would you consider delivering this in some other format - for example online gallery that is available when I need it?
For now I'm going to keep it as an email list. If the participation is high enough, I'll start posting people's completed projects to the site. Kind of a "completed projects" gallery
Why not make the Mailchimp archive public? Folks can subscribe if they want, get a feed, or view the archive. Content is the same either way. And that'd solve the "I'd like to see what I'm subscribing to" questions.

A preview on what to expect (e.g. The last email that was sent out) would be nice, too.
Seems to be across the board based on comments.
