The Islander - Weekly Newsletter
He Says… She Says…
With the launch of our new website, it’s been all systems ‘Go Go Go’ here at Tropica HQ. Over the past few weeks, the whole Club Tropica team have shed blood, sweat and tears in order to deliver a successful brand new version of our website in order to improve your experience with us. As you may have noticed, we are still lacking a client – but NEVER FEAR… Although I cannot give too much away right now, I can let you all know that we are steadily making progress and it is looking much better than many of you will expect!
Having recently launched the new website, we’re currently on the look out for any bugs or glitches that may have reared their ugly heads – so if you have spotted a bug, PLEASE let us know.
Kill That Bug!
Bruno,
Site Producer
CRASH, BANG.. ZAP!Word on the Tropica Tannoy is that Bruno’s PC blew up leaving him unable to publish last weeks newsletter. It has been confirmed that this is exactly what happened… Our sources say there was smoke and everything!
Coming Soon
As promised, with the new website our technicians have been working very hard to develop brand new features for everyone to use. Although still in testing right now, our users will soon be able to ‘Tag’ their photos so that you can link visotirs to either your friends Club Tropica Profile or even their very own website!
