So it's now almost 10am (GMT) Sept 2nd, and still no Spymac

[edesignuk]

As most of you probably know, Spymac have been touting "Spymac 4" for a while now, and the site has been down for days for the upgrade. Site still says it goes live Sept 1st, but it's now 10am GMT Sept 2nd and nothing has changed.

Typical :rolleyes:

I only use spymac for the cool desktops. It has been missed.

I only use spymac for the cool desktops. It has been missed.Same, I only go there for the gallery.

[Wes]

I visit there maybe once every few months when I feel stupid and it helps to remove that feeling.

yeah, yeah, yeah... traitors!!! :eek: Off with your heads... :eek: :p :D

[EGT]

Same, I only go there for the gallery.

We need more high res stuff like the ones you uploaded. Some nice sky pictures would be cool especially with this nice weather we're getting.

*nudge nudge wink wink*

Seems to be up now, although the email hasn't arrived yet and the services are offline.

Looks much better!

[iJon]

Much improvements over last version. Doesn't look like a huge Sunday ad circular and I can actually fit the whole sit on my screen, amazing :)

[edesignuk]

Well, it's back, and it looks cleaner....but NOTHING works!

[Lacero]

The gallery is filled with junk after all those foreigners signed up for free email accounts. It's not even a mac community anymore. Their site 3.0 sucks!!

[swy32x]

I visited daily to gawk at Mac setups.

Theres almost a page of new setups a day!

Then, if I'm feeling dumb, I venture into the forums ... I quickly snap out of it.

[subwarm]

I'm not all that impressed.

[Darwin]

Just checked it out now, still not everything is on yet but it does look a lot nicer then version 3

[edesignuk]

still not everything is on yetLooks to me like NOTHING but the home page is up.

[AHDuke99]

typical spymac, their management is terrible. it might be a few weeks before the forums and gallery is done. they had this date announced for months and yet still couldn't deliver.

Hilarious -- I love the way you get right to the point, Lacero :)

I, on the other hand, actually like Spymac. Granted, I was pretty pissed and stopped going shortly after their 1GB mail and population surge, but I since returned and actually enjoy it again. I love their gallery and community, but I prefer the Macrumors forums by far. There are a lot of trash posts there due to people wanting a higher post-count, but I don't really sense that here at all.

I think Spymac 4 is a giant improvement over Spymac 3. I can't wait to see the rest.

Fishes,

[mac-er]

I like how they say that Spymac 4 will revolutionize the Internet. :rolleyes:

[Freg3000]

I really wish it were not left justified...I generally don't like when websites are designed that way, although there are some exceptions.

I seriously doubt they will revolutionize the web.... :rolleyes:

[ham_man]

Like SpyMac for the cool pictures, and hated its layout and forums. Now I just hate the forums... :rolleyes:

[edesignuk]

Still a whole lot of nothing going on over there... :rolleyes:

[Nermal]

Why doesn't that surprise me? :rolleyes:

[Lacero]

Geez, nearly 10 days and services still don't work. Idiots are running that site.

[edesignuk]

Geez, nearly 10 days and services still don't work. Idiots are running that site.heh, yeah I keep checking back. I used to like having a browse around the gallery (once you got past all the **** posted by their wonderful members, and all the stupid comments :rolleyes:), but still everything is...

[edesignuk]

2 whole weeks later and still nothing :eek: :eek: :eek: Awesome.

[thequicksilver]

Do you think they're weaning the users off slowly before announcing the closure of the site? :D

/me is ex-Spymaccer who has since seen the light.

/me is ex-Spymaccer who has since seen the light.If there is a buck to be made out of it...then yeah.

[EGT]

I know the galleries are free and all that but surely this is beyond a joke now?

[edesignuk]

I know the galleries are free and all that but surely this is beyond a joke now?heh heh, I was wondering the same thing. Still the only part of the "community" part of the site that functions if the forums. Where art thou Gallery???????

[el greenerino]

Sad, the gallery was the only reason for me to visit Spymac :(

[Darwin]

I also like the enhanced security when logging in

Having to pick three symbols on top of your standard password

I have, of course forget the code and they don't have a way of sending it back to me yet, as far as I know

Anyway what with the Gallery still down doesn't seem much point in going there :rolleyes:

[Lacero]

I think those symbols are a terrible idea. I almost forgot mine. Isn't my 6-letter password enough?

Anyway, I still got to rant about their gallery still not up and running. And their forums seems to be lacking a search function. Seems they spent the time developing the Avatar Machine. :rolleyes:

It's been nearly 2 months? OMG. I have pics in my gallery I want to access. Hope they didn't lose any of it.

[Darwin]

For an update on our favorite website SpyMac

They allow you now to retrieve your forgotten symbol code, but the gallery is still offline so no point :D

[mms]

Ha. Good riddance.
I've never really liked SpyMac.

[denial]

Never been to the site before. Must nip over and see what the fuss is about.
