Yep, we went to BST (British Summer Time) last weekend....not that you could call our Summer's summer or sunny, more like the rainy season with a couple of sunny days here and there. Although in saying that, the great mystics at our weather centre's have said this year will be the hottest summer for years

I think they say that every year to try to boost tourism.

Last years Indian summer stayed in India!

My apologies - it was nice to be one hour closer to the UK for a few weeks - I often deal with folks in the UK and this gave me a little bit longer to be able to contact them.

The next set of images are planned for 2-3 weeks time and will probably show season/episode selection with filtering, missing episode's, TVDB auto updating etc.... this may change of course and we could show a different area altogether.

Any chance for another teaser

Hello,

I lost my mojo over the past couple of weeks and needed a break from the usual grind of UI bashing......other members have still been hard at it but not much has changed on the UI front.

Anyway enough of the bleating and time for a couple of boring screenshots but none the less an essential area. The nice thing about the weather is the animated graphics....if its raining then you'll see an animated image showing rain falling.

That's about it until the next time when we "MAY" have a video or two to show.

Cheers

Ben

They may be in a more boring area, but they look fantastic! Keep up the good work and can't wait to see a video or two?

We are getting close to a private beta version but there are still numerous bugs/additions to be worked out/added...... t

You should expect this from me by now.

We will be posting a few more videos as we get closer of the other areas, such as TV, etc...

We hope you enjoy the show...

I agree, that music is excellent! Any idea who it is?

Regarding the Ortus preview, HOLY SMOKES! I had no idea anything like that was even possible with Sage! I've gotten used to having architecture that is leaps and bounds better than ANY other system, but have felt a little '2nd rate' in the looks department. Now with Sage7, and moreso with Ortus we are really moving into the limelight!

GREAT JOB to ALL the developers!
