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.

Colour scheme is no good, can't read the red on the blue.

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.

Preferred the old version on the IP communities app for the iPhone. The new version doesn't seem to be any difference between the app and just using a browser. Anyway just some feedback.

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.

I like it, it will take a little while to get to know how to use it properly but it's got a nice 'feel' to it.

Good work

Posted

Thanks mate again for the great site! I haven't forgotten about becoming a paid up member either, will do that soon.

Posted

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.

Edit post doesn't appear to work in IE8, when I click the Save Changes button nothing happens, same when I click the Use Full Editor button.

Yeah, isn't that funny. Got IE at work.

I prefer Chrome at home.

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. :)

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
