Hey Aces,
I'm really concerned about this problem of information being given by h2g2 to newcomers telling them to look for the 'My Details' button on the left of their screen. Obviously since they're in Alabaster, they're having problems realizing that it's actually the 'Preferences' button in the light blue box on the right of the screen.
Do you guys know if re-writes are getting done to address instructions for the button locations and different skins? (Same is needed for 'don't panic!' page.) I wrote Peta about this a couple of weeks ago, and I hate to bother her again.
Since some of you have been involved in the testing team, I thought you might know whether they just decided to wait until the upcoming update and get all the new stuff included, in which case I'll shut up .

I agree that the tips need to be rewritten. Newbies automatically receive the Alabaster skin, so tips should reflect that skin. They can figure out how to use Goo when they get more familiar.

These were delayed, because Mark was on holiday.
Now he's back, he's updated them, they are just being subbed, and should be up *live* on h2g2 shortly.
