Outline MotM/Updates
S E P T E M B E R


Member of the Month at Outline rewards a member whom we, as staff, believe has set an example for members to adhere to. This member would be kind, helpful, and just overall someone everyone enjoys. We also give great consideration to members who contribute to Outline a level that upholds our mission to provide evolutionary resources and designs.

MotM this year has been fairly spotty as we've watched and looked for excelling artists and community participates over the months. This month we believe we've found someone who is almost a textbook example of what we love to see in a member. From active exhibits, posts, and topics to creating design interviews, this month's recipient has been an all-around participant in the community here. He has a great attitude and has been very willing to improve on his design skills. Congratulations Retro for being September's MotM!


As much as I hate sticking other updates on to MotM topics, sometimes it's inevitable when you need two important topics to not fight each other for index real estate. This month we have a very big announcement to make, one that may not be pleasurable, but it has to be made nonetheless. Unfortunately, we set ambitious goals for the end of September/beginning of October, and because of that we did not meet them. With school picking back up and some staff complications, we simply didn't get to the point we expected. It's unfortunate, but it must be accepted and we must move forward.

As for the future, we intend to make up for this delay. To begin, we're going to be running a satirical version of Scooby Doo to 'find out who stole Outline's updates'. Check that out here! Second, very soon you'll be seeing a major release in to the Outline theme database as a show of good faith: Outline Nova. That's right, we're going to be releasing Nova. In October.. All we're waiting on is a few graphics that we just have to gather up and then we'll be ready to push the theme out to the public.

We intend to make a lot of progress with this extra time. Our current hope is that the delay will only be a month, so hopefully we'll be ready in early November. However, if we feel we're not ready, we won't push it. We want to close out this year on an extraordinary note, so we may need more time and you may not see these major updates until December. The reason for this is that we're trying to coordinate many things to work together intuitively: the revamp, month-long contest, Member Weekend and the theme (light and dark with mobile versions of each).

We hope you understand our situation and don't think too lowly of us for this delay. We want to give you the best possible experience. I'll close out this post with some statistic updates at the bottom. Ah, and check out the breast cancer banner in Adelyte!

It's a love story, baby just say yes
Congratulations Retro, definitely deserved!

Stats look nice overall, it's good to see the Web/UI forum overtaking General Chat. (y)
Consider this statement my permission to convert my themes to other platforms. Please link back to http://geoffreykoester.com. Be sure to rehost all theme images on the new platform as we do not know how long they will redirect. Also some boards hosting theme/skin images may not survive the move.
