Telescope is fairly flexible out of the box. You can tweak colors for the header and buttons in the [Settings](/settings) panel (just make sure you've created a user account first).
If you'd like, you can also enable post thumbnails. You'll need to get an [Embedly](http://embed.ly) API key first, and then simply add it in the Settings screen.
### Enabling The Newsletter
Telescope can also automatically generate and send a newsletter of the best posts of the day or week. All you need to do is provide your MailChimp API key and list ID in the Settings screen, choose the sending frequency, and then enable the newsletter.
