BagOfCrisps 24 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 SJfolk, I know you said that you are making preparations for future updates. But, do tell more. Seeing as though you are taking away some Forums time every now and again. Seriously, what are you actually doing when they are turned off? Link to post Share on other sites
SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted June 17, 2011 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted June 17, 2011 Sorry about that Bag! Well, come early September - as that is the plan - we will be turning the Forums off for a few days and they will after that be turned back on again looking a bit different and with lots more stuff to play with. It's more of a complete rebuild than an update really and because of that, we'll need to bring over everything that is here now into the new Forums. So there's a lot of preparation, and we don't want to get it wrong and make a mess of it. Today was a bit of a dry run to make sure things are in place. Sadly, it's not a time to sit back with a coffee. Link to post Share on other sites

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan#Andrew 6 Posted June 17, 2011 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted June 17, 2011 Originally Posted By: bobby12 I want it to display better on iphone... Just to respond to this point bobby... I think you should find the updates will display better on mobile devices, or at least have the option to be more suited to the small display.

I have a very strong BS filter when it comes to the web, pretty much everything on the forum index page apart from the forum threads is like a blur to me. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, Snowjapan really go way over the top with the advertising, google ads, banner ads and cheesy marketing slogans on their forum index page don't they! Oh, hold on a sec.... there's so totally, like, NONE of that. Link to post Share on other sites
