I just decided to try and use it, and the new account page is not to be found. Is Bryce Talk still operational or is it a casualty of MetaCreations? Ackbar

Somewhere in April 2000 Metacreations sold Bryce to Corel. The page you are referring to was on Metacreation's site and therefor doesn't excist anymore. As far as I know (but someone correct me if I'm wrong)Corel didn't take over the whole Bryce-talk-thing but maybe there's some information about this on corel's site. ---------------------------------------------------- But IMHO this is just one of the customer-unfriendly strategy Corel is currently creating for Bryce users: another example: you first have to purchase Corel's Bryce4 before you can upgrade it to Bryce 4.1 , ....or was this fixed?...can't remember,

corel does have a "javascript" chat online, but its not user friendly at all..and you can not register nicks with it. I think the registered users of Brycetalk can still log on, but there is no way for new people to register. BT

you can upgrade any version of Bryce 4.0 to 4.1 because I have a metacreations version adn the upgrade worked just fine for me

Actualy, being a Bryce talk 1 and 2 member, You can goto the Bryce updates sections at Corel,and Get the chat update file. This will alter the link inside bryce to goto Corels new (Java based) Chat room. But as Ken pointed out it is a lame fix on Corels part. The Old interface was much nicer. Anyways the people who usualy do frequent Bryce talk, are those from BT1. and they are a great bunch of people. Also there is a solid following of Bryce Chatters at the Delphi site too, these people are more frequent than those of BT2. But none the less great people to chat about bryce with! Hope to see some of you there some time! ~Blacksteel
