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 $19 a month Plus program. - Email Templates coming to ThemeForest
If you’ve ever designed HTML emails you know how painful it can be even with programs like Litmus. But soon you’ll be able to pick up affordable, high quality newsletter and email templates over at ThemeForest! - Brand New "How to Be Awesome at Work" blog … a
One of our most enduringly popular sites is FreelanceSwitch a site to make you better at freelancing. Well we’ve been thinking, what about everyone else – they probably want to be awesome too! So we’re launching a brand new blog called WorkAwesome.com. FreelanceSwitch editor Joel Falconer is at the helm and is compiling content for the new site for its imminent launch. - 2 New AppStorm sites about Web Apps and Air Apps
In 2009 thousands of Mac software junkies have discovered our little Mac Apps blog – Mac.AppStorm well we’re expanding out into two new areas – Web Apps and Adobe Air Apps. Look out for the first of these next week! - 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!

#1 .. wow, sounds great .. can’t wait.
Kewl :D,
I’m really curious at the new Marketplace design and functions, great job and keep them coming
Can we get a teaser image for the new marketplace design?? I am dying to see how it looks! Also, is it an overhaul of everything? Perhaps even *author rates increase* ? :-)
can’t wait! especially for the marketplace redesign !!!
I don’t know which one of the new things coming out is my favorite, they all sound awesome! :D
I think I might just have to choose the marketplace redesign because that’s going to be awesome. Wonder if that “it’ll be here next month, then repeat for a couple months” thing will happen. :P
In french, we would say “Longue vie au réseau Tuts+ !” (envato included)
Seems like you will never stop, and guess what…that’s what makes you above all !
Thanks again for such quality, keep on !
I’m looking forward to the “How to Be Awesome at Work” blog!
wow awesome!
Nice work, I can’t wait for the redesigns.
Everything sounds great!!! I like how the workawesome.com blog looks right now (how it looks like a regular wordpress blog) but not for long! Can’t wait!!!
=D
Sounds very exciting! Is there a way to submit content for any of the new blogs?
awesome!! specially the Marketplace Redesign :o
Did you know that envato made over $100,000 off the birthday bundle?
5000 * 20 == 100,000
Envato is very, very clever they made over $100,000 in about 3 days, amazing!
Oh really? smart guy.
I’m not criticizing them, I’m just amazed. ;)
where did you get that information ?
That’s Business. Advantage at both sides.
Yup. :)
Now calculate their bandwidth bill! ;)
@Meshach Unfortunately that’s not all profit lol.
Can’t wait for the workawesome blog!
looking forward to all the new features !
looking forward to the new marketplace and the blog!
I really did wish when i logged into theme forest that all my details our automatically entered on the comment section as well etc..
Just an idea!
Can’t wait to see the marketplace redesign!! I noticed web.appstorm on the Envato sites menu the other day looking forward to that one!!
Did they really need a new design? can only tell after seeing the new design.
I like Envato!
Looking forward to all the great new things coming out of the Envato thinktank.
