Site Update - moved stuff and new stuff

[gordy]

Greetings Planeteers,

The new paint smell is starting to wear off. It has been a crazy past couple of weeks getting all the parts of planetFigure back in order after the conversion and things are starting to take shape.

Features that are now backon:

• vBench: http://www.planetfigure.com/members/vlist Now snazzier than ever
• Figure of the Year: http://www.planetfigure.com/pages/foty/
• Scaler: http://www.planetfigure.com/pages/planetFigure-scaler/
• Wiki(partial): http://www.planetfigure.com/wiki/index/
• Events: http://www.planetfigure.com/events/upcoming (awesome features now with maps and RSVP and STREAMING live feeds!)

Still to do:

• Articles: I'm still waiting for some design work
• Front Page: Still testing arrangments for the best information
• Wiki: Restore data from the old wiki

What's New?
Two new forums:
Brutal Honesty - Critique Center
A forum for constructive criticism regarding painting an sculpting. No fighting, be Honest and Helpful!

Digis - Digital Miniatures 3D Modeling
There's minis now there's "digis". This forum is dedicated to the creation and design of 3D digital sculpting and rendering.

Stay tuned there's still more to come!

All the best,
gordy

Looks pretty cool! Haven't had the time to check in for a while due to work, but I really like the new digital sculpting area

I'm wondering why I'm a new member though?

Gordy-. When I was looking at the v bench page, is there going to be more names listed? For example, where is Ernesto Reyes v bench? Thanks, Matt

redhorse , the criteria for the label names are different levels than the preceding software, for example the old software use 0-15 posts = New Member the new system is 0-99 posts = New Member, etc (those are estimated numbers)

BigDaddy, Matt the names that are listed there are folks that have enabled them in their profile settings, here is how : http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/vbench-is-back.46501/#post-472512 either Ernesto hasn't updated his profile yet or hasn't been back in a while

You can still visit folks vBench areas even if they haven't listed their names on the vBench page by going to their profile and selecting the vBench tab: http://www.planetfigure.com/members/ernest.2497/#vbench

How come I can't see how many views threads have received when I click into someone's profile and look at threads they've started? I only see how many replies the threads have received. Obviously not necessary, but for curiosity's sake I always enjoyed it before.
