The first image, with Fourmtalk on one row, not with talk below...

Just my thoughts tho...

Thanks for clarifying. I actually prefer it on one row too, but I thought the second image might be better suited for a square image, which will be used for the app icon and tile for ForumTalk. I am using the one-line image for the splash screen and inside the app.

I like them both, you can use the top one for the Panorama Banner perhaps?

Anyway, it'd be cool if you can set the tile to use accent-color as the background. That green would look foul against my blue background :D
Thanks for feedback, I actually am currently using the top one for the panorama banner, in fact, that's mostly what it was designed for :)
I will probably make the accent-colored tile an optional change (similar to my app Next Browser if you've seen it), but my only concern is the orange used in the text is very similar to the accent color 'mango' which could be a problem.

i like them both, the square is perfect for the tile!:cyclops::laugh:

Awesome! Thanks



Also, status update:
I keep going back and forth, but I have finally decided that beta 1 is about ready. I still have some other things on my list, and I'm sure I will find a lot more while testing tomorrow, but I will release it soon. Unfortunately, it is decided that this beta will not be capable of logging in to any forums due to a very annoying, but fixable, but annoying bug I will have to overcome in the future.

BTW, I can't make any promises, so I won't give an ETA. Sorry.

Thanks,
Johnny

By the way I love it when people post to this thread, it encourages me, so if you have questions or comments, feel free.

Both logo's are nice. As you said, first one will be apt for Panaroma view and second for live tile.

I would also like to stress the request to make the live tile supports accent color of the phone.

Waiting for the hands on of Forum Talk ;)

Keep up your good work!

If anyone is interested, I'd like to share a quick update:

I got a lot done today, I was hoping to release ForumTalk Beta 1 tonight, but it's not quite there. Hopefully tomorrow morning I can submit it, meaning after the 4-8 hour delay that always follows, it should be ready for download around 2-6 PM Mountain Time.

Thanks!

Awesome, you're on beta. I'll let you know when I have a download link.

And about the phone, really whatever works best for you is ok. Honestly, the Focus and Quantum are the same to me, being first-generation Windows Phones. I have a Lumia 900 too, so one of the first gens would be best, but I don't really care which phone you choose.

Okay, I just submitted it for beta. It says about 24 hours, but I think it will be available sooner. If you want to try earlier than that, go ahead and click this link. I think it works better from Windows Phone than it does using the web marketplace

EDIT: changed link

    Hey everybody, it got passed! Here is the download link: http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=ffd93649-b9bc-4d37-bf9b-825847befa42

    If by chance your country or device is taking awhile for it to actually process the download, please give it time. Also, remember everything I said in last post. (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35130673&postcount=164)

    I'll post a link on the front post later.

    omer_hyltz and mozza54, you're added to the beta.

    Do you have any time frame before the beta starts ?

    Not sure yet, it's really hard to say. I am aiming to have something up by this next Friday/Saturday, but it really depends on how much time I have.

    New Demo Video Available

    I know, it isn't the prettiest, or fastest, but I've been working hard and it's time for me to show you a video of ForumTalk in action.

    A few things to point out:
    • I am not really asking for feedback based on this video yet
    • The choppiness is because of the emulator, it runs much better on my Lumia 900
    • I know XDA-Developers is in my recent forums list 4 times... :D
    • The UI needs work
    • This is only to show you what you signed up to test
    • I know it needs a lot of work - it's not even close to beta quality yet

    Find the video here: http://youtu.be/fAUwTK00DEI

    Thank you.
