Dear All,

As you may know, discapps is officially going under on 31st of October. Nathan has been coding away hard to make new boards for us, and is gradually going to begin switching us over. Some things to be aware of….

1) This will involve importing the data from the old site to the new. In order to not lose any posts, new pages will be made active as soon as the data has been imported. Therefore, there will be two different styles of board (the old and the new) coexisting for a while – though still only one board for each location. There will be notifications in chatzy of when a particular page is being worked on.

2) If anything is wibbly or broken, please let us know

3) We had some stellar design input early in the process, for which we are very grateful. The new site has had to be a compromise of what was achievable in the time frame, and is still a work in progress. Our chief aesthetician has also been swamped lately, and Nathan and I will both fully admit to not being the most artsy. If you can see any obvious clumpiness in terms of layout, graphics, fonts – any of the ‘prettiness’ side – please drop us a line. We appreciate help with this.

4) We have tried to preserve the way things work, in terms of thread groupings, whilst making the layout neater and cleaner. We hope this is a straightforward and user-friendly switch.

5) You will need to be logged in to post, and the new layout makes more prominent use of profile pictures, so please make sure you have an account, and as many of your pictures uploaded as possible.

We hope you will all enjoy the new look site. And huge, huge thanks to those who have worked so hard to make it happen.
