Artisteer Announces Support for Google's Blogger(TM). Automated Web Design Software Allows Bloggers to Create Blogger(TM) Templates in Minutes

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 10 // -- Extensoft today announced a new 2.3 version of its automated web design product, Artisteer, now with support for Google's Blogger(TM). Artisteer enables non-technical users to create great looking web designs in minutes. Thousands of web design professionals already use Artisteer for quick web design drafting, idea generation and small to medium design projects. The new version now enables everyday bloggers to take advantage of the automated web design technology without HTML knowledge or CSS coding experience, while producing professional looking blog designs.

Leonid Evstafiev, product manager for Artisteer said in a recent interview: "With the newly added Blogger support we aim at helping writers take complete control of their blog system, including all aspects of blog design. This eliminates the technical challenges of creating professional web designs, while extending Blogger's design features."

Artisteer 2.3 also finalizes the recently introduced support for the DotNetNuke(TM), bringing the power of automated web design to this popular Microsoft ASP.NET based content management system.

Artisteer simplifies tasks such as designing the menu layout, changing colors, text, header image, backgrounds, and buttons, which can all be configured with a few clicks. Prior to Artisteer's introduction, tasks such as these have taken hours, often requiring a high level of experience and tedious work modifying HTML and CSS code. Artisteer simplifies this process by cutting the time required in creating a web design from hours to minutes. Artisteer's easy to use interface utilizes the Microsoft ribbon interface most notably used in its popular Office 2007 suite.

Artisteer created templates are standards based and WC3 XHTML compliant, solving compatibility issues with all major browsers while offering compatibility for most plug-ins and modules.

Artisteer 2.3 comes in two versions, Home and Standard edition, with a starting price of $49.95. The Home version of Artisteer supports creating web designs for Blogger(TM), WordPress and HTML publishing. The Standard edition of Artisteer adds export support for Joomla, Drupal, DotNetNuke, ASP.NET and CodeCharge Studio. Artisteer runs on Windows XP/Vista/7 and a Beta version is available for Mac OS X. A free trial is available for both editions at http://www.artisteer.com .
