Hey friend,

I trust you have been well and enjoying your summer (or winter if your on the other side of planet!).  

Just a quick update... if you haven't noticed the forum has been updated (Yeah!!!).  You'll notice a much cleaner look and feel and a better mobile experience.  

OH!  and of course we just launched PT+Pro Monthly.  Busy week!

If you happen to find any bugs... feel free to post them into the support forum and we'll get them taken care of.  

Speak to you soon!

Alex

Change is ok, if it's a step forward...but altering a website so it's "mobile friendly" isn't a step forward, it's just an example of going to a "one size fit's nobody" style.
Not sure on the really light colours, in fact, as i'm typing this I can barely read what I've typed as it's showing up as very light grey against white...

Not convinced...

So, I've just gone in and had a look around...


um...you really need to change the text back to something you can actually see against white...it's awful!

I can barely read anything...

I'll come back in a week and see if there's an improvement...

I'm not digging the light text either. It needs to be a shade or two darker.

Thanks for your honest feedback.  Just want to let you know... our aim wasn't to create a one size fit all.  We improved the layout for all platforms.  Prior to this, our mobile was horrible.  So how it is right now is leap forward.  

I agree, the font color has slipped and is far to light.  I'll get that taken care of.  Stay tuned!

Whoa!

What a change, Alex!

I didn't log into the site since 2014... Everything looks different now. Lots of things have changed since then. 

Totally killing it!

Congrats, mate!
