New software upgrades?

I've heard that the software will be getting upgraded. Just a small question.

Will this be rolled out in one package? So will we get an announcement saying it's available, we download it and everything's changed and is new and sparkly, or will new features be rolled out as they're finished?

I'm talking about things like resizing, auto top ups, more visual options such as skin colour etc etc, not things like late reg, antes etc.

Thanks.

    So here's how it normally works (once we've done he 'behind the scenes' work):

    - We will beta test the new version of the software with a group of customers
    - This will have the developments like the ones you mention
              - It will also have some others!
    - Once we're happy with this we release to all customers and announce it
              - Most likely this will be onsite, in emails and on social media etc.
    - If you play on the web version, this will happen immediately
    - If you play on the download, an update will be required

    One thing the new software allows us to do is make other improvements so effectively the same will happen again regularly, albeit on a smaller scale.

    Hope that's clear.

    Thanks

    So i take it that the new software has not reached the beta test yet?
    Last time this was 3-6 months so i take it this year launch is is pretty much out of the question.

    It is not out of the question at all.

    Thanks

    To be honest i don't think the cash side of things on this site are bad at all, maybe tournament players will disagree but as far as cash goes the only bad things on here are the auto top up and auto reload. Aside from that it's just little niggly things which don't really affect the playing of the game at all.

    Also thanks to Sky Poker for the concise update on the software.

    I know you don't like giving out exact dates but i take it from your post above that it is very possible it will be out within the next 6 months?
