Community Manager Introduction - Erycil
 Aug 19, 2008
Hello all!
This is Erycil, the new Community Manager saying hi.
I've joined the Magelo team around the end of July motivated by my passion for games.
My first multiplayer RPG was Diablo2, which I started in 2001. I moved on to Ragnarok Online for a few years and then started playing World of Warcraft in 2006 (still addicted) and began EverQuest recently.
As an avid gamer, I hope to bring a fresh perspective to the Magelo community and keep the communication lines open between everyone and the team.
My main tasks will be to improve our communication with everyone and to help you with our features.
Of course, I will always be available to answer to your questions. Dont hesitate to share also with us your suggestions. Your ideas and feedbacks are always welcome as our goal is to bring you the best service we can!
See you soon on the forums!

New Signature feature and website speed improvement
 Aug 14, 2008
We are proud today to offer our new Signature feature! We also pushed live some speed improvement and fixed few bugs.
Dynamic Signature
Link your character profile wherever you want using your own dynamic signature!


- The signature will be created and updated automatically when you sync your character.
- The signature will show your character's level, server, class, race, guild rank, guild name, talent point and tradeskills. Five statistics will also be displayed in a row.
- The signature is customizable as your profile!
- You can choose a background image and a color theme. Browse our gallery, you can even match the background image and the color theme of your profile!
- You can also choose the 5 statistics. Show off your critical rating, your spell critical rating and other advanced stats in the signature!
- Finally you can choose the font and the color of the font.
- The character thumbnail portrait in your signature is automatically generated when you Sync your character.
- Clicking on the signature will open the characters profile.
- The signature is smart – anytime you update your profile, the statistics change (if any) will be immediately reflected in your signatures, wherever they have been posted.
- Post your signature in your favorite forums or in your website using the appropriate codes.
Manage your signatures as you manage your profile in My characters section (Manage character > Customize > Signature).
Website performance improvement
A lot of change have been made on the website to improve its performance, you should feel it. Everything will load faster now!
Bug fixes
- The amount of gold your character has will now be correctly displayed in your profile. You will need to Sync your characters again before it is properly shown.
- The default thumbnail portrait of your character will be updated with every Sync session.
Other updates will be coming up soon; we are going to work on several other features and fixes next.
Enjoy your new signatures and have fun!

Magelo mentioned on the official WoW website!
 Jun 12, 2008
Welcome to the Magelo WoW Beta!
 May 22, 2008
It has been quite a challenging adventure, and we had to slash a few things along the way, but today we are pleased to finally share with you our quest to bring Magelo to the World of Warcraft community.
So welcome to the first phase of our Beta which introduces the Magelo WoW profiles, full database and preliminary guild tools.
  
- Magelo WoW profile allows maximum customization and details for each of your characters. The WoW profile also serves as a gateway to our contextualized database and guild tools.
- Use our client Magelo Sync to create and update your profile with one simple click! Magelo Sync ensures instant accuracy of your characters gear and progress, and allows you to sync whenever you want, as much as you want!
- Our rich game database lets you explore the game and provides many illustrations. Give it a try - it's fun! And don't forget to run Magelo Sync as you play to help us populate the database.
- Guild leaders can use our preliminary guild tools to organize and manage their guild by analyzing members strengths and weaknesses. Guild leaders can also set recruiting requirements and criteria to look for qualified candidates.
- You can also browse through guilds with open recruitment. You can place a LFG announcement on your profile to advertise your candidacy. It will also promote your character to guilds looking for members.
For more information and an in-depth demonstration of our profile, please check out our introductory video above. The video provides a quick tour of the profile features and introduce our client Magelo Sync. You can also visit our Discover Magelo section.
During the Beta, you can use all premium features freely, have fun!
Additionally, we plan to launch many more goodies before the end of the beta phase like alternate profiles. Feel free to check the In Development section of our website to see what's next in the Magelo pipeline.
Please keep in mind this is a beta, so we apologize in advance if there are few bugs here and there. If you happen to find some, please take the time to report them in our Bug forum.
Finally, I would like to take a moment to thank our dev team which worked very hard to make this happen, so a big thank you to Krogh, Loulina and Kimahry, we would not be here without you guys.
Enjoy!
The Magelo Team |
