What's up guys, it's me, dycaite, and you'll no doubt have noticed that some BIG changes have been taking place around the wiki of late! To that end, we feel like enough has changed to warrant classifying this as the site's third revision and it brings many improvements and user-wanted features with it, including:

* A brand new skin, customised from the ground up specifically for the LMW
Hey guys, dycaite here! Just a quick one today because I'm a bit under the weather at the moment (both mentally and physically, if I'm being perfectly honest) and have decided to take a break from the site/community for a few weeks (and also from social media in general), to better recuperate my health. BUT before I do there's a couple of things I have to mention! Starting with:
* A much more responsive mobile layout
* Improved video embed code
* Improved comments extension (you can edit and delete your own comments now!)
* Many smaller and behind-the-scenes errors fixed
* All new 'Featured' section
* More!


There are still tweaks to be done and fixes to be made to certain things, but the skin and upgrades are developed far enough along that we are comfortable releasing them to the wild :D
* Dean Alioto's [[U.F.O. ABDUCTION aka 'The McPherson Tape' (found mockumentary film; 1989)|''UFO Abduction'' (aka ''The McPherson Tape'')]] has received an official re-release! Now available in its digitally remastered form (on DVD or downloadable copy), the notoriously eerie found footage mockumentary can be purchased via it's official website, [https://www.ufoabductionmovie.com/ ufoabductionmovie.com] and the DVD also contains the ''Fox Encounters'' special on the film! I would highly encourage anyone who is a fan of this film, or of "lost" films in general, to grab a copy of this; I have already purchased mine because I am a big believer in supporting artists when they put their lost content out legitimately, and I would like to think that most of you would feel the same way and would also show support. Thanks to Dean Alioto for letting me know about the release (and also for signing my copy :D)!


There are two people that, without whom this wouldn't have been possible, and those people are Anton (the highly talented MediaWiki pro on Upwork who put everything together for me and who has been more than helpful with ideas and in getting the wiki up to the standard I envisioned for this new iteration) and Commander Santa (whose hugely generous $1,000 donation following the uncovering of [[Clock Man aka "O Parádivé Sally" (found Czech animated short; 1976)|Clock Man]] was used and will continue to be used to finance these upgrades), I can't thank you two enough, I am absolutely blown away by the results and I think most users would agree that its a vast improvement over the old version.
* Randy has released 3 new episodes of the Lost Media Chronicles! This time he covers Winsor McCay, ''Souvlaki'' by Slowdive (in a crossover episode with Adventures in Vinyl Land) and ''Blue's Clues'', respectively; check 'em out via the above embeds, there's nearly an hour of entertainment here!


Special thanks to [[User:Reynard|Reynard]] for the new logos!
That's all from me for now, take it easy guys and I'll catch you all in a few weeks time after having myself a little vacation!
 
That's it for now, if you come across any bugs or anomalies with the new skin/upgrades (like I said, it ''does'' still require a small amount of work) please let either myself or another staff member know; thanks guys, catch ya's next time!

Hey guys, dycaite here! Just a quick one today because I'm a bit under the weather at the moment (both mentally and physically, if I'm being perfectly honest) and have decided to take a break from the site/community for a few weeks (and also from social media in general), to better recuperate my health.
