Yup: Big news – our new version is up and running…(you can read a review about us at Techcrunch).It’s our belief that community is out there in the wider world, not centered here at Wix headquarters. As we see it, Web communities grow and change organically, with content generated by users from all over the world. That puts you, the user, at the center–you own the content, you decide when and where to publish it, you embed it anywhere–and, of course, we’re happy with any creative way you choose to do it!

Did you see our new cool features? (I guess some of you already use it, and as we can see, use it well!)
Now, you can:
• Add mini-pages that allow you to make small changes rather than major overhauls to your designs.(We also added a ton of new content)
• Animate your content, simply by using the “animation” feature; you can now decide when and where your content will appear and how it will look (how about fading in smoothly?)
• Draw from your own collection of visual content and present it in a photo album, carousel, or other creative layout.
• Control the editor and HTML background of your published Wix. When you publish or edit your Wix, you can change the background color from the default blue to any color you’d like. Just click the multi-colored square that you can find in “settings” (in the “info” section inside it) and both your editor background and your published Wix background will be changed.

In the meantime, you can see some of our favorite designs created by Wix users in the ‘Explore’ section of the site (if you’d like your work featured on Wix, email me at Amit@wix.com)On the same note, as you can see from our Artists’ Blog, we warmly welcome (and are seeking!) any content you’d like to contribute to Wix. If you’re an artist, musician, or graphic designer, we’d be more than happy to add your content to the system, allowing other users to see, use and enjoy it (you’ll retain credit for your work). Content submissions should come to me: Amit@wix.com As always, you can find us at our twitter: http://twitter.com/Wix (check it out, we’re friendly to strangers…), or be our friend on MySpace (www.myspace.com/wixmypage) (or, if you are an Artist: http://www.myspace.com/wixart ) or Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=528459119).

Update, 3/16/08:
VvComphelpvV has just informed us that due to technical issues he has to remove his video from YouTube, we will post his remake soon.

All of us here at Wix would like to wish our awesome Beta Testers a happy and loving Valentine’s Day!

And to try and get you in the Wix spirit we’ve created these Valentine’s Comments.
Spread the love by personalizing them and sharing them with your friends and special loved ones :-)

So far we’ve given access to a small group of people who are helping us shake-out the kinks.

Wix is an ambitious Web product and the entire team is working hard at getting everything ready for the official Beta launch, which isn’t far away.

We are gradually giving access to more people while increasing server capacity.

So what’s the best way to make sure you know what’s going on with Wix?

Two ways:

1. Sign-up for an early access invite on Wix.com.
2. Subscribe to our RSS.

Thanks to everyone who’s helping us with testing, feedback and in donating stock graphics!
