Extensoft announced a new 2.4 version of its automated Web design product, Artisteer, now with support for Google's Blogger™. 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 2.4 also finalizes the recently introduced support for the DotNetNuke™, 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.

Conclusions
We installed Artisteer Standard Edition on a Mac mini in just a few minutes. After opening the program a complete theme was displayed and all we had to do is click the "Suggest Theme" button to get another theme. Once we found a theme that was close to our desired output, we were able to fine-tune every element of the template using "suggest" buttons for individual settings such as background or menus. Delving even deeper, we were able to update individual colors, fonts, layout, background, sheet, header, menus, articles, blocks, buttons and even footers. After creating a great-looking template, it was simply a matter of exporting and uploading to our website and blog. It doesn't get any easier than this!
