Thanks everyone for your amazing design submissions & great feedback!

Based on your suggestions, we’ve just...

1. Simplified the process for getting advance advance: When visiting the site, simply enter the invite code in the popup that appears, then login using your account username/email & password. This replaces having to remember a separate beta username & password, in addition to your account login.
    
2. Made it easier to share your designs, profiles, & advance access to Abantu Apparel: Though we’re still in our advance access period, we’ve learned that many of you want to invite friends to check us out, vote on your designs, and join your fan club. So we’ve decided, if you’re cool with someone, we’re cool with them! Feel free to share with friends who’d be interested. We’ve upgraded our sharing tools to make this as simple as possible.
    
3. Added more email notifications: We think it’s great for artists & fans to stay in the loop! In addition to knowing when people comment on your posts, now you’ll also be the first to know when someone your a fan of posts something new, and when items you’re interested in are updated or commented on. You can always modify your notification settings from your my account / edit profile page.
    
4. Increased visibility of new designs & members: to help ensure everyone gets their moment in the spotlight!

Check out our new features, and as always, we’d love to hear from you—whether it’s the good, the bad, or the ugly ;)
