Welcome to the New Bitstrips

Welcome to 1.2 - our first major upgrade since our launch back in March.

Here’s what’s new on the site:

New design. Bitstrips is ready for prime time with a fresh look and improved navigation.
• New art!  Check the builder for new props, effects and scenery.  And new clothing will be released throughout the summer!
• Real Names. Find your friends easier by searching for their real names!  NOTICE: If you don’t want your real name to be visible, you can opt-out here.
The “Cartoon Cannon”.  Check page one for our revolutionary new tool - making comics has never been faster.
Kudos ratings - for all those strips that are amazing but not necessarily ha-ha funny.  Also suitable for strips that are both funny AND extra-awesome.
Default to Super-Builder - skip the Easy Comic Builder for faster loading - set it here.
Character Directory - check out the lastest and greatest stars of Bitstrips!

And if you haven’t been here in a while, here are some new features we’ve added since our launch:

• Scene Builder
• Improved Search w/tags
• Flagging/Content Filtering
• RSS feeds

And there’s still more to come for 1.2 this summer - next up is new clothing, which we’ll be adding regularly over the next few months! Expect new upgrades to the builders and more special features, coming soon.
