Looks great but I have the same stretching image issue.

So the first dev diary was on 7/6. Shouldn't we have another one by now (2 weeks)?

I was wondering the same thing. We should be due for another one by now.

Surely this is marketing 101, ensuring a regular publishing schedule for promotional material?

Especially as we know Erik has actually completed the diary for last week. Someone just hasn't posted it.

I was just informed it will be posted around the middle of next week. There are a few other things being completed to go along with it.
