Ok, playin' catch up to all the posts here. First off thanks for all the kind words! Glad you like it! Off to a bit of a rocky start but I guess that should be expected when trying to launch a new site AND switch to a new host. (I wasn't quite anticipating all the "fun" it's been )

 

To your points/questions:

@ Jay - the "dealer area" currently consists of multiple areas. Eventually that may all come together in some fancy portal however for now that means dealers see the reseller forum which has some stuff added over before, the reseller downloads area and the reseller blog.

 

@ Justin - avatars weren't brought over however we've opened it up so you can add your own. One less thing for me to do

 

@ Keith - If you think the front end requires a training seminar... count your lucky stars you can't see the back end! Regarding the time, I had to make a small adjustment so the site knew what the new native server time was. It's showing up correctly here. If it's not for you, be sure to use the member drop-down menu (upper right of the screen), choose settings and the first option there is to set your time zone.

 

@ JMC - Not yet, but there will be. We had some issues getting the book images in the store with transparencies to work. I ended up re-uploading all the images multiple times and just a few days before launch got the issue fixed but the temporary fix had been to put the grey background behind each image. If we were to allow colour scheme changes now, that would look ugly. Once things settle down I'll re-up images with transparencies so it won't matter what colour scheme or "skin" is used. this will always be the default but we do want to offer choice. I'm thinking at least one even darker one (mostly black) and a lighter variant.

 

@ gavetta - regarding emoticons: definitely. I'm not fond of the white... blobs around them. I know the default set is meant for a light background. Again, with time we'll be adding more - probably more complete packs! Just wasn't sitting to high on the priority list

 

@kunfuzed - welcome
