Welcome to WinCustomize 2005!

Bear with us as wel get settled in..

Tuesday, December 7, 2004 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

The new WinCustomize is here!

Bear with us as there will no doubt be issues that we have to work through over the next couple of weeks. But we hope you like what you see so far.

The new site is designed to be more steamlined for both new users and power users. It also has a lot more content than the previous site and provides a bunch of new ways for users to participate (with more ways to come).

Let us know what you think.  If you're running into performance issues, let us know. That's the part that's the trickiest to resolve since WC has so much traffic (millions of different users per month) that even one bug can cascade mightily.

Not looking bad so far, just some broken images and I find navigation to be a little iffy. I'll send you a screenshot and description of what I mean later.

I have been experiencing some intermittent errors trying to reach the wincustomize.com home page, as well as some of the skin libraries. But these are probably typical hiccups when migrating a website (especially a large one like wincustomize). I'm getting used to the new site and am liking it very much! Looking forward to using it on a daily basis!

Very nice Frogboy and Staff, and even smells brand new! We've walked through most of it now and can't seem to find the coffee room, nor the RESTROOM.

After seeing this with Tiggz' site, and seeing how the other sites mesh smoothly into this... I don't mind at all.

Nice site. Only thing is you can't get to it from Mozilla:

This is what appears in that browser:

Glad it happened. This is just what the doctor ordered for those of us that can't get enough of this site. It's sick, wicked, cool, groovy, all that, the bomb, and I'm down. It's happenin' too.

uh .......I like it.

It's been slow(moving around in here)but once the novelty wears off, it will get back to normal......I hope! This site will take a little to get used to, I still like my Wincustomize
