For all you designers out there, Microsoft is launching a new beta program that will feature the newest design program. Go to Microsoft Connect, click Available Programs, and sign-up for it.

More information about the product at: http://www.microsoft.com/expression/web_designer

Oh yeah, it's a limited CTP, only 5000 users.

Signed up for it as well.

The program's homepage makes it sounds interesting, let's hope it is. :)

How do you sign up????

RE: Designers, new beta from Microsoft to sign-up for by user27089 on 03-29-2006 at 06:52 AM

I couldn't apply :s Everytime I put my email address in, it said it was being used by another person? But who the hell else would use traxor@gmail.com :-/.

Then when I do get the email right it says "Invalid Object"

There's a video about it on the Expression site which covers the 3 programs. It really looks promising, especially because of the support for standards.
