Hi Mede8er Beta Testers
The release is V2.0.0 Beta1 but the Setup screen still shows V1.0.4 BETA. This will be corrected on the next release.
Although we still have a few GUI screens to update we have decided to release this Beta today as we really want some feedback from you. We need to get the final of this release out in October so we really dont have much time. You will find some demo backdrop images on the FTP and some txt instructions.
The 'Set to Skin' option is completed and working and we will release a skin pack to those who are interested in customizing the skin. Once this release goes public we will launch a competition with some nice prize for the best community skin design.
