<p>This plugin makes it easy to display the featured images of your posts in mailchimp RSS newsletters.</p>
<p>Once activated this plugin will add the following to your sites default rss feed:</p>
<p><strong><em>To the rss name space declarations:</em></strong></p>
<pre><code>    xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/"
</code></pre>
<p><strong><em>To each individual item (if it has a featured image):</em></strong></p>
<pre><code><media:content url="[url]" type="[mimetype]" medium="image" width="100%" height="auto">
    <media:description type="plain"><![CDATA[title]]></media:description>
</media:content>
</code></pre>
<p>The featured images are not inserted directly into the content of your posts, so you have full control over where and how to present them.<br />
If you send out newsletters using a Mailchimp RSS based Campaign, simply place the *|RSSITEM:IMAGE|* merge-tag in your mail template where you want the featured image inserted.</p>

I love the simplicity of this plugin. Just read the form code from the service you're using, make sure you put in the action and the field names (precision is crucial) and you're good to go! Then you will need to set up, at the service itself, the pages for the confirmations and other notices.

Very simple wrapper for adding in your form action for various services
