‘Thewlis Rox’ is now ‘The David Thewlis Network’

[Amanda]

After operating this website for five years, I’ve decided to re-launch it and start off on a new page. Due to our constant improvements on the management and overall professionalism of the Site, the new layout has been skillfully re-designed for simpler navigation and an overall refreshed interface. The appearance and functionality of our Website demonstrates our eligibility to receive press passes and other forms of content-related permissions in the future. In addition, applying under our new title has already granted us more responses and reception from media outlets as we hoped. The further 'official' and 'exclusive' additions we apply for and receive will enable us to provide more features to David's fans. We still enjoy hailing under the ‘Thewlis Rox’ title, which has not expired, but has become our trademark nickname.

Below, I've listed all alterations and further changes that will occur in the near future, I will notify visitors when these features are completed.

- The 'LiveJournal' and 'MySpace' communities have been disabled. Our prime social networking is now soley focused on the Site's Facebook and Twitter, which have already proven to be more successful and popular amongst our visitor's preferences.
- In addition, our Twitter has a new username and link. If you are already 'following' our Twitter community, we welcome you to our latest version.
- Our YouTube channel will be transferring and all videos will be re-uploaded promptly.
- The 'Film Database', 'Discussion Board' and 'Press Page' are currently transferring to a new interface.
- The 'Gallery' will be re-launched over the next few months, ALL images will be watermarked (including screen captures).
- We are creating and designing an iPhone and iPad application for members to view this website on a customized interface compatible on these devices.

Any inquiries based on the changes of the Site, you are welcome to send us an email (admin@davidthewlis.net) titled 'Renovation' or send me a PM. Thank you.

Update on the progress of our Site transition;

- Our new YouTube community is up and running; Subscribe/Friend
- - However, all audio on the videos (including Facebook) is off-note, something malfunctioned with the processing. I'll have this issue fixed by the end of the week (hopefully), it's to do with the video cropping.
- The press archive has successfully transferred.
- The film database is still under construction, but I've managed to transfer a majority of it over with a new interface (and add all of David's upcoming films).
- The mobile feature has a new texting capabilities for fans (through our Twitter account) - be sure to check it out, or subscribe! Perfect for iPhone users.


Still to come...because I procrastinate .

- Gallery is still being re-constructed (haven't touched this yet).
- iPhone/iPad app. - still learning how to construct.
- Forum layout, will be selecting a template and uploading it by the end of this week - forum may be switched to maintenance mode (offline) during this week.
- The big one, UPDATES. Haven't transferred a single one yet, but more then likely will be transferring an update-a-day (during one of my boring lecture courses), I should have all of them taken care of by the end of December. You can still access our previous updates with the former template;

Tony,

No kidding, right?

I start University again on Monday, things around here will continue progressing but very slowly - wrapping up and graduating is my number one priority until I am DONE with college for good - I'm also devoted to time with family, my hubby, friends, work, hiking, etc. the site is usually what I work on my rare free time (a couple of hours every other day - or update).

I have installed the new forum layouts (will be customizing them over time) and fixed all of the audio issues with the current videos - so that is quite a large chunk completed last week. Thanks for all your patience everyone!

Free time you don't have any good luck with Uni Amanda you will be out of there before you know it cos time will fly then try & take time out when you have finished as you will need it.

Amanda you will have Letters after her name when you are finished & I can think of a few to start with S(smart)B(Beautiful) & the last letter is C(caring) I might of not known you that long but with you Amanda we are so alike we put others fist, like you did on your last day in London instead of doing you own thing & meet up with me after the show you spent the whole day with me & that I will never forget for so many reasons our spooky meeting with Anna & Joseph & our chat over lunch & above all the warmth you give out when you meet people you love & respect.
