Well after just updating an image setting for the order pages they seem to be broken. I've got a ticket in with BlueSnap (they're the company that hosts the order pages for me) so hopefully be fixed soon.

I like the new look. The homepage works good on my end. I'll try the ordering page soon.

I like the darker header and depth the shadow creates.. It seems more pleasing to look at. Draws me into it!

Thanks Burr, I'm glad you like it! It's a lot less like a holdover from the 1990s now. ;)

Still have some areas to tune up.

Dear Michael,

Could you please incorporate with the Gallery to have the ability to see animation videos of our 3D creations.

Thank you so much.

Does the Release notes for each V4 beta release is different than a future What's new in V4 ?

Hi Ray,

re:

I'm sorry but no I'm not able to do that because videos take up much more storage space than images.

If I were to try and do that I would need to put in a lot of effort in managing server storage.

Hi Pilou,

> Does the Release notes for each V4 beta release is different than a future What's new in V4 ?

Coming up pretty soon I will be making a "What's new in v4" page which will have some of the same information that's in the v4 beta release notes, but it will be edited to be condensed and probably have example images and things like that.

I'll probably have that later this week once the web site redesign is complete.

For videos you could off load them to youtube or vimeo.

Hi Charlie, it's still unfortunately a lot of work to maintain some kind of automated link to YouTube or Vimeo built into my own web site.

If you have an animation you want to share, using YouTube or Vimeo would be a good way to do it, you can upload it there yourself and send out a link to it on the forum. There isn't a lot to be gained from me trying to integrate such a thing directly into the MoI web site.

And it's so easy to put a video Youtube here ;)
Just Copy Paste the "Copy embed code" ;)

No I don't expect any changes there.

Ok, now the forum has been tuned up as well. I will be adding in some more content on some pages and a "what's new in v4" page but the overall web site redesign is complete!

michael,

for me the wiki page is odd. on the left on desktop there are all sorts of links that don't seem to need to be there, unless you are an admin or something like that. for just someone viewing, you have to realize just to ignore them all. then on mobile, the wiki page is really odd. all sorts of square icons at the top.

other two sense. i don't know if there is a way to have the top banner consistent for all pages. for instance going from the home page to the forum, the top banner is quite different. not just the links but the image position as well.

lastly, for some reason the moi forum makes me constantly have to login. so i see the login page to the forum the most. not sure if there is a way to make it look more like the new site them. for instance the nice new dark blue banner color that you added.

anyways, i like the improvements overall.

oh, one more thing. but probably too hard to pull off. on the wiki there are all sorts of addons tuts etc. not sure if you could have them sorted by version. like v1, v2, etc addons. once i get v4 it seems like its going to be hard to know what addons will work with it. i know for sure i'll need the old xyz point import that you did. that's all i have planned to use atm. but i know others would find some kind of grouping by version useful. i know this would probably be a huge time killer though.
