Hi all,
It seems that one of the bigger companies, and one we use a number of themes and add-ons from due to it's good support and reliability, is changing it's model and no longer supporting a number of it's products. One of their products is the default theme we use on this site, another is the Donation add-on i've recently been complaining about (explains why they dont want to support it any more now... ).
Therefore I'll be spending a massive amount of time and effort over the coming weeks/months looking for suitable replacements. It also gives me time to think about site restructuring/improving (as i have said previously, there's several things i would like to remove/improve and add here). I would also like to expand the site to include things like industry releases and rumours.... to make it an all-round site, rather than just a discussion site (however the discussion part will always be at the core of this site and the community). When the time is right, I'll be reaching out to you all to find people that are happy and willing to be part of the team here... From Articles and Reviews to... well.. who knows! There will be a number of longstanding members i would like to consult on the best way forwards and what THEY would like to see from this site... all with the aim of making it a better place!
Please bear with me - I will try to minimise disruption and improve the site to improve functionality and user friendliness.
It will take a considerable time - I will keep you all updated as to where we are and what is happening. I know and realise from previous experiences that people dont always like change - Sometimes we just need to change and improve to keep up with the times.
Thanks
Paul
