Updates on the web based portal

I'm getting quite a number of inquiries about the new web portal so here are some answers to clear up some dust: 1.) Yes, it's in production. it will take on the name "Web Platinum", "Irisheyez' Portal (with a curse)" or something like that. Nothing's written in stone though. 2.) No there are no screenshots yet. first I have to get the skeleton up and running, then i add in the styles to make it lag abit. 3.) This also means hardware/server upgrades for neomallers so when it's closer to being done, we'll go through an upgrade process which means the servers could be offline 24-72 hours depending on where you live. But for the most part, server migration should be complete within a day. This will probably happen around April/May since that's when my current plan expires. 4.) No, there is no estimated completion time as of right now. However, some basic features may start coming online as early as next week :O It will be an ongoing project like the neomallers portal pro edition 5.) It will be written in [b]php[/b] with a MySQL database backend with some javascript to speed things up, so this means, no Adobe Flash. For some of you, this is great news since flash lags like hell, especially on craptops. *pokes NC Mall and Neohomes V2* Java is a pain since not everyone has it. 6.) You will be able to import your neomallers portal data into the web platinum and hopefully vice versa. I'm also hoping to set up some kind of synchronization system (probably via manual means) but this might never happen since it's complicated and tedious at this point. 7.) Irisheyez is the greatest.... at punishing mallers. ^^

Beta testing only requires you to be familiar with how the program/web version works so you know your way around. Of course, I'll put in pointers and stuff but it helps to know your way around ----------------------------- [color=purple]Contrary to popular belief, the Irish and I are not married[/color]

I'd like to help beta test it if you still need people. It will be interesting accessing it on my iphone :D

Great :p speaking of iphones. If you create a link to this site on the home screen, we should have our own iphone icon now hehe. Ive patched some things too. Most stuff run fine on it except through the opera mini web browser ----------------------------- [color=purple]Contrary to popular belief, the Irish and I are not married[/color]

I'd be happy to help out too, and run a Mac.

Can't wait for it :) I'm sure you have enough beta testers already but I would love to try it on my ipod touch :D
