This Information appears to be outdated
Following these instructions, as of January 2008, does not provide the options expected in the site actions drop down. Instead of seeing and option for advanced design the option is to active third party tools. The information on this page appears to be obsolete.

Actually the information was ahead of its time
Try it again. I think you'll find that the option is there now. It was added as part of the last upgrade.

Option NOT Showing

I currently operating in the "use your own design software" mode. When click on "Site actions" I'm only given the following two options:
* Site Administrator
* Activate the Microsoft Office Live Small Business Web design tool

I'm not provided with "Activate advanced design features" indicated above...

I've been using Office Live Small Business for about a year... do I need to setup a new account?
