We've created a demo site so that you can see an example of what can be created in a matter of minutes at Home for Artists. If you watched the "5-Minute Web Site" video, we followed those exact steps to create this. After that, a few posts were added and some settings were changed. And you can see that we have a great web site with blog posts, pictures, comment system, etc. We even changed out the billboard image at the top - this image can be anything you like.
The first step in creating a revitalized Home for Artists is complete. We think you'll find the new design to be cleaner, easier to navigate, and more efficient. More importantly, it provides us with greater opportunities to add more functionality.
That means that new features are on the way! In particular, we will be adding many new community features to the web site, allowing our customers, along with other artists, to communicate, collaborate, share ideas and criticism, aid one another in

The days of having to jump through hoops to register for a site are behind us. Think of all the times you've seen a blog post, wanted to comment, but chose not to because of the anticipation of filling out a form, waiting for an email to confirm, then finally being able to go back to the site, log in, and post. Now, at Home for Artists, you can simply click the 1-Click Sign In button and use your social networking accounts to sign in here. Then you can do all the things any other member can
Today we have added the first of a series of new features that were referenced in our last post - a Frequently Asked Questions section.
This new FAQ replaces our old knowledgebase with a more robust system that we created for easier navigation and increased helpfulness. Not only can you browse the categories and questions, and see the answers to those questions, but you can now submit your own questions to be considered for inclusion, and you can comment on existing ones.

With a great deal of work and effort, we have rebuilt the site with an entirely new back end management system. This will allow us to do much more with our system, with much more flexibility to be creative.
The first thing we'll be adding is a new comprehensive FAQ (to be expanded over time). Not only will it answer many of your technical hosting questions, but also will offer answers, tips, and advice for building and maintaining a successful web site. These questions will be answered by us,

We also appreciate referrals to our community on Facebook, Twitter, our blog, and our forums!
