Hey everybody!

We're in the midst of a ton of awesome new projects here at CoffeeCup HQ, and I thought I'd let you all know what's going on (and hook you up with a free gift).

The HTML Editor:
After lots of coding and polishing we released the new HTML Editor a few weeks ago, and we're hearing lots of great feedback from happy users. If you haven't gotten gotten your hands on it yet, we're extending the special deal we offered when it first came out.

Go here to pick up the coolest HTML editor on the planet
(plus equally awesome themes and graphics at a great price)!

The most popular feature in the HTML Editor is Website Projects, which help you create a flawless Website structure. Thanks to this great feature, you've all said, "Goodbye" to broken links and images, which brings us to our next bit of news...

The "Schwow" Graphics Deal:
1900 professionally designed Web graphics for $19 is a great deal no matter how you slice it. We've offered this deal twice now, and both times, thousands of people have emailed us asking why it expired. We gave it some thought and decided to extend this awesome deal one more time. If you want to do like so many others and improve your Webpages with these rad graphics, it's not too late!

Go here from now until September 23 to get 1900 graphics for a penny apiece.


Website Access Manager:
We're currently brewing up a new version of this popular tool, and it's almost done! (Keep an eye on the forums for a more detailed announcement later this month.) Website Access Manager has quickly become one of our most popular programs — and with good reason. It provides comprehensive password protection for all or part of your Website using the power of .htaccess. Which brings us to...

What the heck is an .htaccess file anyway?
Glad you asked! .htaccess files are the driving force behind Website Access Manager. This little app does a great job of simplifying an intimidatingly cryptic technology, and makes it easy to password protect your Website. But if you're one of those people who prefers to do everything by hand, the prospect of learning how to use .htaccess files is daunting, to say the least.

That's why we've kept our resident word nerd Brooke in our basement for the past few months, putting her to work on creating a handbook that explains in plain English how to protect your Website using .htaccess files and Website Access Manager. It’s comprehensive, it’s easy to understand, and when you’re done, you’ll feel right at home with .htaccess files.

Shopping Cart Creator:
Some big, huge, ginormous things are happening with this program... but we can't say what ;) Let's just say that if you use this program, you'll definitely want to be one of the first to know about these new developments. If you're an existing user, you'll get the first one automatically delivered to your Download Center in... hmm... how does a week sound? And if you've been thinking about getting Shopping Cart Creator but haven't had a chance to yet, you'd better get your hands on a copy so you can be a part of this special surprise too! Go here for instant gratification and a shiny future.


Visual Site Designer:
Pretty soon, all you Visual Site Designer users out there are gonna be the happiest campers on the entire Interwebs. Why? Well, use your imagination. Just imagine an update that pleases the eye, eliminates two enormous headaches, and will make everyone who uses Visual Site Designer spontaneously join hands and start singing "Kumbaya." Keep imagining... and keep your eyes on your inboxes for further developments.

Is that all? Heck no! We are always hard at work brewing new and exciting stuff. But we'll focus on all the things we just mentioned for now, and give you another update in a few weeks or so.

Now it's your turn:
What are your thoughts, your suggestions, your predictions? Let us know — we love hearing from you! ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Great to know about this big changes!!! A year ago I asked you if you needed some help translating your software to spanish, you replied yes and that I'll be contacted any time regarding it, but, 1 year after, no answer.
Can't wait to see the improvements on the software.

First of all, I LOVE the new HTML editor! And I've been using your products since the late 1990's!

Secondly, if you guys made it possible to open Visual Site Designer files in the HTML editor, or, made the VSD more adaptable for editing the HTML files, I will give you GREAT BIG HUGS!

We had hoped to move a bit quicker with translations, but there is a lot to prepare for before we could start the process. The good news is we now have dedicated staff working on translating our software into a few different languages. We will post more information on that later. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

How about updating Photo Gallery to include the cover flow type application or 3D wall look for albums?

Please!

We are planning to release Macintosh versions of our software in the future. I do know that many of our OS X customers run our software through BootCamp, Paralles, VMWare and CrossOver. At least that can keep you going while you wait ;) ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

We have talked about that feature for sometime, but due to the way Form Builder was designed, adding calculations is no easy thing. I am sure someday we will figure out a way to tackle that project, but it most likely wont be something you would see anytime soon.
