Greetings all,
I figured I'd stop in to give you all an update on things: We're still working on our Summer Update, but at this point we're behind schedule. We know - not a huge surprise, right? That said, the Summer Update (yes, that's what we're calling it now) is still being worked on, and we're aiming to roll this out over the course of this Summer, starting with an open beta.
We're still waiting on a few things to fall in line before we open it up to the public.
The update is taking longer than anticipated due to several reasons. For starters, it's not just a new UI. We could easily roll that out by itself, but we want substance and enhanced functionality. Something more than just revised CSS. That substance comes in the form of coding fixes, usability tweaks, an enhanced commenting system, revising the upload process (incl. completely revising categories, species lists, tagging, gallery folders, etc) as well as small things users have requested (such as +faving journals), better journals and more features over all.. We're focusing on issues that people have long since found frustrating.
It's been a long time coming and is a long time overdue. We're hoping to be able to announce a live beta date soon, but we want to do this right. Not rush into things.
That said, it will be this Summer, and it will be huge.
Thanks,
Dragoneer
