Wix.com, the Tel Aviv-based do-it-yourself website development company, has acquired DeviantArt, a leading online art community with over 40 million registered users, according to the company.

Wix will gain access to this creator community, and will provide DeviantArt and its users with marketing and tools to showcase their work. Wix acquired 100 percent of the company’s capital stock for $36 million in cash, including about $3 million of assumed liabilities.
