New Forum Software


Demonland

Recommended Posts

I've installed the latest version of the forum software. Please be patient whilst I iron out any bugs and settle on a theme for the look and feel of the site. I know people are set in their ways and get used to the way it used to look but the update was necessary .

In the move we seem to have lost all the avatars so you will have to either find your old one or find a new one. Like the Dees this is a new beginning .

Let me know if you run into any bugs or issues and I will attempt to sort it out.

I seem to have lost the "reply" button when I'm on the iPhone.

How can I quote someone's earlier post?

You either go to the reply box at the bottom of the page or hit the quote button on the post you want to respond to which will quite that post in the reply box at the bottom. Not sure why they've done that...

Yikes, drastic! I'm flexible and adaptable to change - I'll get used to it :-)

I'm not!

But as I have little say I will go along with it.

The red bar at the top is too fluro. I'm having an epileptic fit over here!

Go for a darker red please, like the one from the old site.

As I said, it's a work in progress but attitudes like yours make it difficult to get motivated to spend hours of work to please people who receive it for free.

Well done Andy. The new model has a much cleaner look about it, and the banner is brilliant! Thanks for all the hard work.

ps. If an old fart like me can can quickly get used to the changes, then anyone can.

Please don't take me seriously, Andy.

I would come on here and post if the colour sceme was purple and yellow.

There is a reason it is the most visited fan site in the AFL.

It's a tremedous site and really well run.

Which at the minute has a fluro red band across the top...

Sorry I didn't mean to get cranky and you are a paid up life member so I guess you aren't using the site for free. Sorry about that. I'm just not feeling well today and I was up most of the night ironing out bugs in what was supposed to be a seamless upgrade. I have had to redo the skin from scratch so it will take a bit of tweaking to get it to a state that I am happy with. Also we lost all of our avatars which peed me off too.

Check out the red bar now. I have muted it a little. Also different screens will display it differently.

Anyway it's a good time for everyone to check out their profile settings and adjust you preferences to suit. Also have play around with the site as there are many new features that will enhance your Demonland experience.

Please provide feedback. I welcome it but just remember that I am working my ass off to get things look as slick as possible.

The red looks great Andy.

Just on the Avatars. It's funny, I saw mine in my profile as soon as we moved but had trouble finding it, so I saved the picture from my profile onto my comp an then loaded it again.

That makes sense trust me. Everyone has their avatar in their profile I would wager, if they 'save picture' onto their comp and reload it - all would be fine.

So if you lost your avatar check your profile!

The site colours appear significantly different on my iMac as compared to my other computers.

Also, in re-doing my profile I realised I had listed a bloke who, apparently, left our club last week.

Thanks Andy.

I appreciate this site, and its given me a way of putting Ideas out and learning from others. My only downside has been the derogatory comments from some postors.

But generally it's been beneficial and I've learnt, and caught up in areas I had fallen behind, after turning my back on the game in the past.

The ideas that can be generated from these sites has to be one of the positives that can influence our club to get back up on it's feet & become relevant again.

There is a lot of passion & interest in The Dees and this site helps to promote this.

Lets keep it positive & constructive.

Mine was lost and wasn't in profile. Had to reload.

Good job on the banner Andy. Looks good.

I'm fiddling around with Zoom to see which read feels better. Definitely checking my preferences. :)

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
