We are glad to announce the release of Mystic 2.2.0. The new version of the skin is now compatible with our framework and with the latest IP.Services official applications (Blog, Downloads, Gallery, Chat, Nexus, Content, Tracker and Shootbox). The skin has also been revamped both design and code-wise. It now uses much more modern code.



Try it out!

New feature: Switch Views
Mystic now ships with a brand new feature that lets you switch between the list and the grid views on the board index.



Current customers can download (and reinstall) the new version of the skin through their download box. If you find bugs in the skin, please do report them in our bug tracker.

Next one is Cielo.

Very nice job. One question. On the Mystic skin, can you set the "Grid View" as the default view?

[Sebastien Penet]

It is the default actually. Empty your cookies if you made a choice (it remembers what you picked).
Views can be managed from the views.ini file, by the way.

I personally now think (after the upgrade) that Mystic is the most beautiful skin you currently got. My questions are:

1. IPB is now making a complete new skin for 3.2, will we have to pay extra to update the skins to 3.2? (If this is the case, I think I will wait till 3.2 is released and then buy Mystic, unless we could sort out some deal right now)
2. How will the new default IPB skin affect your current skins? (maybe too early to answer right now)
3. Will you try make Mystic look as similar as possible with the new skin, or will you make a completely new Mystic design for 3.2? (I know the design will vary because of the new default skin in 3.2 (which is unavoidable), but my question here is more related to layout/choice of same colors, backgrounds, and features)

If you can't answer any of these questions I wont hold it against you. I know that there is very little information out about the new skin but you might know something I dont, so I'm asking anyway.

[Sebastien Penet]

1. We don't know how IPB 3.2 will affect our skins so it is very hard to tell at the moment. Maybe Olivier has an idea, but I don't.
2. Same answer
3. Yes. Our big update has made a lot of changes to our skins so they won't change a lot until quite a lot of time.

Now that you've got a preview of 3.2, do you have some more answers?

[Olivier Turbis]

The update will be free. We really only charge when it's a huge update, like from 3.2 to 4.0.
