What’s Coming Up in September!

It’s been a hectic 3 days for us here at Envato. We’ve had a massively successful Birthday Bundle (over 5,000 sales in 3 days), lots of giveaways, a fantastic Tuts+ tutorial set up for free download and our first video interview. Here in the office we’ve also been celebrating today with a big lunch and lots of network gaming! With the birthday all wrapped up now though I thought I’d give you a very quick preview of what’s coming up in September…

All this before the end of September

We’re on a bit of a roll at the moment, what with the birthday celebrations, the launch of the new Envato.com website, lots and lots of recent upgrades to our server infrastructure and the launch of Phototuts+ … but it doesn’t stop there. Nope, in the next 6 weeks we have a rather huge amount of stuff planned which in turn means we’re all going to be working some serious overtime! Here’s what’s coming before the end of September:

• Plus coming to Aetuts+
  Since its inception Aetuts+ has been flying along. Now Skellie and new editor Adam Everett Miller are going to be taking things up a notch with the addition of bonus Plus content for members of our $9 a month Plus program.

• Email Templates coming to ThemeForest

• The BIG one … Envato Marketplace Redesign
  This has been in development for almost three months now and finally the new marketplace design is approaching readiness. It’s a total overhaul of the look and is packed with all sorts of features, including forum improvements, interface improvements, author following, and much, much more. It’s going to be massive!

So look out for all this and more! It’s going to be a big couple of months!
