Hi guys!

For those of you who don't know me, I'm in charge of the web development team for GMC. Kristofer has just spent two days here with us at The Farm (the company which does most of the tech work here at GMC), working with the finishing touches for the new site design! Kristofer is now on his way home, and asked me to post the following message for all of you smile.gif

Here goes, straight from Kristofer:

As you have probably noticed we have launched the new design today.

The development team will be alert to fix possible bugs - and we are grateful if you report anything you might find. The coming weeks' development work will be devoted to fixing remaining flaws and bugs.

Some of the new features such as the video chat statistics in the header involve third party services - and will therefore not work right now (but we are working on them in this very moment).

We have also done some improvements to GMC back bone scripts and software - one example of this is that you no longer need two different usernames/password for the videos and forum. These background improvements will allow us to develop very cool features in the future.

If you check out the start page you will find some cool new stuff under featured content! Some extra credits: Thank you Fran for your wiki work and Marcus Lavendell for the Lesson Oldies video medley.

Hi Canis good to see you here - hopefully people will gradually drop in! (not all people are seeing the new site with this post yet)

We will do our best to fix the bugs the coming week(s) - for now I am happy if people manage to login and check the lessons! smile.gif

edit- forum avatars and uploads should be back as soon as possible.

Hi Kris,
the new design looks great! At the moment I'm having trouble with my bookmarks, meaning the videos won't load. When I click on one of my bookmarks, let's say "power metal rhythm guitar", the site will appear, I can see the instructors description of the lesson and all, but the video doesn't load. I can play videos of recent lessons that are not in my bookmarks...
And I can't seem to find the comment-section under the videos anymore. Has it been disabled?

It works a little differently now - click the white field in the upper corner that says "Give Feedback etc"

Hi there Gitarrero. I'm yet another of the developers assisting Kris in bringing GMC even further =)

Big thanks for the quick feedback =) We found a issue with the video you mentioned and that should be fixed now.

Please give us more feedback if you have further problems and we'll get on em asap.

Hi Kris and Matthias,
thanks for your help, everything works fine now. All my bookmarks work, and I even found the feedback-section biggrin.gif
Very good work on the site and quick help, what more could a customer want? tongue.gif
btw, Kris, I just listened to your hilarious "Mittwoch"-song...great work, but your german...but other germans told you that already cool.gif
Very rammsteinish indeed, we need more of this!
Do you want a grammar challenge?
Zeitreisen werden Grammatik komplizierter gemacht haben.

After entering a lesson, the right column "reccomended lessons" shows the same avatar for each lesson.

I like the new front page design. I can't see the header in the forum section and buttons are a bit displaced. I gues some CSS fixes need to be done. I am using the latest Firefox. Nice work anyway.

Emir could you also try clearing your cookies? (just deleting GMC cookies should do the trick - you don't need to delete all of them of course)

Ok then it's probably because an old "remember me" cookie was stored in firefox from the old site - should be fixed if you remove that cookie (we are investigating a way to do this in our end so that everybody doesnt need to do it)

By the way here is how the forum should look:

Well, I meant that on Firefox it worked fine without erasing the cookies, while I did it on IE8.

I removed cookies and now is ok but the site loads very slow. Wherever I click I wait 5-7 sec for the page to open. It asked me 5 times for the username and password and it didn't go through. When I clicked on forum link it logged me in but it didn't tell me that I'm actually logged in.

Same here Emir. First log after resetting cookies I was told to log back in, did that and then got a 'site down' message. Logged back in and was then linked to the site history. Relogged twice and finally got through...

Mine however showed me as logged in.

This is on FF 3.5.5

Looks good! Going to spend some time looking around and trying things out. smile.gif
Yesterday, with the forum down, was the most boring day I've had in some time tongue.gif

The website seems a bit slow, but it might just be me. Forum looks good to me as well.
Got a "You are not allowed to reply to this topic"-like message first two times I tried writing this. I think I figured it out now biggrin.gif

When I click to edit the post, the display to choose between quick edit and Full Editor mode is displayed far off in the right bottom corner.
