Launched: Bold Minded add-ons
Brian Litzinger recently launched a new site for his ExpressionEngine add-ons: Bold Minded.
I decided to put this site together after making the decision to take WYMEditor for ExpressionEngine, and my latest release Blueprints, commercial. WYMEditor started off as a donation only add-on. This was because I wanted to keep costs down and provide a competitive alternative to the other WYSIWYG editors for EE. Then I realized how much time I had actually put into it’s development and support, and rethought my plan. I believe going commercial will actually make it more competitive because I will be obligated to provide better and quicker support as well as spend time on new features to make it the best WYSIWYG editor for ExpressionEngine.
As noted above, Brian is going to start selling add-ons and is moving his WYMEditor from donationware to commercial. This includes his Blueprints add-on, which is “designed to bring a visual representation of Structure templates to the Publish Page, and easily show the user what fields are available in each template.”
And for those of you looking for a Gypsy replacement in ExpressionEngine 2, check out Brian’s Drifter add-on.
Brian was nice enough to send over copies of his add-ons for EE Insider to try out and I hope to have a post about them in the very near future.

It’s nice to see integration with the default file browser. Every other attempt at a more friendly editor that I have seen has yet to take on the challenge of making the image uploading functionality blend in with the native UI.
