Some of you have noticed that there is now an active community forming in the Fourtheye Forums. Many Toolarmy readers, craving for a desire to communicate, have taken up residence. However Fourtheye readers of all types are welcome to join in the fun. A feature I have just added this evening (indeed this post is designed to test it!) if post synchronisation. In the News forum, you will find all… Read More »Forum Update
With the recent influx of Toolarmy, and the increase in off-topic comments that comes with it, I figured now might be as good a time as any to start a Fourtheye discussion forum. Theoretically, your Fourtheye login should carry over into this new forum. Please let me know if you have any problems related to this. When I initially planned Fourtheye, I never expected to start a forum, and to… Read More »Forums Open
Ok, as the update progresses, I’ve had to export the current data for import into the new system. What this means that any comments from this point onwards, won’t be seen post-upgrade. There also won’t be any further news until the upgrade is complete, cause I don’t want to have to type stuff in twice (I’m lazy like that). Enjoy! Update: I may well keep recent comments, so don’t use… Read More »More Maintenance Details
Firstly, welcome to all of those that have recently joined due to the Toolarmy outage (no sign of it coming back up any time soon). A few of you have posted about missing comments and such. Be aware, there is no conspiracy at hand – all new members have to be moderated before they can post comments. Once this first one has been approved then you free to post as… Read More »Dear Toolarmy n00bs
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water….. Recently, I’ve been considering how to best use Fourtheye as a more social site, and how to best give readers a method to communicate more freely with each other, and also to share their opinions on items that aren’t neccessarily covered by Fourtheye. To achieve this, I have been contemplating installing a WordPress plugin called Buddypress, which… Read More »Fourtheye Maintenance
As I’m sure many of you have noticed, Toolarmy is down (Toolband seems ok though). I’ve heard nothing about the length of the downtime, and hopefully we’ll see service back in due form. In the meantime keep checking Fourtheye, or any number of alternatives such as Toolnavy or The Tool Hotline.
Those of you with a sense of humour will appreciate the latest design up on the Fourtheye Shop! Â Buy one now!
After much procrastination, I’ve finally decided to open the Fourtheye Store on Cafepress (for Australian buyers use this link). Â On the site you’ll find a range of designs, including the Fuck Blair joke I came up with a while back, as well as some artwork created by Fourtheye Readers Rohan Dawes and Michael Thurman. Profits from shirt sales go directly back in to server costs, which just happen to be… Read More »Support Fourtheye – Buy Stuff!
As I’m sure most of us anticipated, the Tool gig in Dallas at the Nokia Centre sold out pretty damn fast. Nice work to those who got tickets, condolences to those that didn’t. No doubt there will be much discussion about scalpers and the like – something I won’t go into at this stage – and we’re all aware on what negative impact they have on ticket sales to needy… Read More »Dallas Sold Out!
Just a reminder post for any readers who may not be aware that Fourtheye has a Twitter Account. This feed offers an alternative way of getting information from Fourtheye, as every post I make is tweeted, as well as a few extras here and there than don’t quite deserve a full mention on the site. Follow me now and if I beat Aston Kutcher to 2 million followers I’ll personally… Read More »Twitter Reminder
