When can we manage pictures in the control panel?

by Toptel 2014-09-07, 4:38 pm

Announcement by Telnic in April 2011:

One day very soon, you will login to update your .tel and see an invitation to participate in Beta testing of the all-new .tel control panel. Click the link to switch to the new interface to see some of the exciting new features and improvements, including:

Managing adverts and vouchers within the control panel
Uploading your own photos and logos
New ways to customise your .tel design
Quick links to social networks
More intuitive interface

To start with, you will be able to switch between the new and the old control panels easily to benefit from the new and enhanced functionality, like managing adverts and new template designs, or go back to the old interface for any temporarily hidden features.

In the months following the initial launch, the new control panel will be fully tested and enabled as the standard interface for all .tel owners worldwide. We hope it will help novice users discover the full .tel potential, while advanced .tel owners will have more flexibility in achieving their goals.

On the right is a sneak preview of what’s coming in the new control panel, including a new Design interface with more flexibility, new templates and better user experience. For example, you will now be able to match any .tel page layout with any icon set and a compatible colour theme in three simple steps. More colour settings for individual sections of the page will remain available too.

Another important addition to the .tel control panel will be the Adverts tab for easy management of various .tel adverts. You will see where your advert fits on the page and what it looks like. In addition to text advertising options available today via system interfaces, the new control panel will include a new type of advert, the Voucher, for showcasing coupon codes. Small businesses will be able to use this simple tool to attract more sales.

We look forward to receiving your comments on the new interface once it’s out. If you wish to comment on the Beta control panel, please write to us at community@telnic.org

.tel must have an extremely complicated technical platform if it wasn't possible to deliver this undeniably most important feature within 3 1/2 years!

Please read the title at http://telnic.org/newsletters/dottelegraph-apr11.html#features

Then it gets clear that it wasn't a serious announcement:

Shhh! Can you keep a secret?

@Toptel - one thing I learnt a long time ago - just because it's printed in a newspaper doesn't make it true or ensure it's going to happen !

BTW you need to add another option in your poll - NEVER - then I, and probably several others, will vote !

TIME TO BE PATIENT NOW - those involved in the .tel project are used to that - and just wait for the takover/whatever that may happen when the last of the $35,000,000 is spent on salaries/expenses/costs and the cashpoint is dry.

AND TO HOPE THAT:

1. The existing Telnic shareholders don't pump any more money in, which will just prolong not cure the myriad of .tel problems.

2. A dynamic go-ahead well-funded 24/7 type of internet company takes over, and that assuming they get it right there are still enough users/registrars/domainers/developers interested in the .tel extension.

3. The noise from the new gTLDs doesn't drown out a .tel revival under the new ownership.

4. An alternative - perhaps FREE - option that offers .tel functionality (existing and Phase 2) achieves "critical mass" even though the data is not stored in the DNS.

PS. USERS DON'T CARE WHERE DATA IS STORED !

A lot of conditions for future success!

@4444 - got to agree with you on that - and then I added point 4 whilst you were adding your post !

I just wish Kash would "wake up and smell the coffee" as Henri Asseily and Justin Hayward have obviously recently done !
