News roundup - new pilot show up
This is an example I saw which is really simple and effective (ignore the shelves :P) : <iframe id="dit-video-embed" width="640" height="360" src="http://snagplayer.video.dp.discovery.com/878660/snag-it-player.htm?auto=no" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>

New Coldplaying App - BETA
Yeah, it's based on the Tapatalk API. V1 is very similar too it. The main difference being the presentation, completely Coldplaying branded, no extra Tapatalk rap forums :laugh3: and the speed. Should be able to expand on top of it in the future without any problems for V2+, would need a programmer for that though! The Tapatalk API i'm using doesn't support Windows at the moment, maybe they will in the future. Is the Tapatalk app on Windows? The forums will still be available through Tapatalk as usual so that's the other option.

Member Of The Month & Honorary Coldplayers
It's Member Of The Month time :) This month's winner is jc90. Congratulations :D MOTM is decided by the most thumbs up within each month for multiple posts. I touched on the Honorary Coldplayers rank before, when Team Members were announced. We have decided (the Mod team) that any members who have been registered on the forums for over 10 years, who are still active (and have over 100+ posts) will receive recognition for their loyalty and as a thanks to their contribution on Coldplaying over the years :) The exception for anyone under 10 years is if they have previously being a Global Moderator. Please let me know if you have a join date of over 10 years and you haven't been made an Honorary Member. Black Rose and Texasluvsjonny are among the first, as ex-Moderators. Another three members have been added (who have recently posted): [Coldplay]Andi nanda Congratulations :) I know there's a lot of you who joined during the X&Y era. I'll add you later on in the year after your 10 year anniversary, just remind me please!

New Coldplaying App - BETA
We have been working on a new app for Coldplaying. It's based off Tapatalk, with modifications and minus all the annoying stuff. I'm sure you'll all love it but there may be a few bugs so we need you to test it :) I am currently still working the iOS version which is a massive pain to even upload to the app store so hopefully that will be online soon. The Android version has just gone online (V1.0 - BETA) and you can download using the link below. I'll announce it soon and once the iOS version is online. Please post your feedback here and any bugs/glitches if you find any while you are browsing and posting: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tapatalk.coldplayingcomforum (Screenshots and all the other stuff and still in progress)

30k Facebook likes + Chris Martin quote!
<a href="http://www.coldplaying.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/B398NZVIYAAPyqV.jpg"><img src="http://www.coldplaying.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/B398NZVIYAAPyqV.jpg" alt="Never seen before - Chris Martin jokes about Ghost Stories album cover!" width="600" height="525" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-46608" /></a> Our Facebook page has hit 30,000 likes! Thank you so much all your likes, comments and shares on Coldplaying FB :) I want to share with you a funny speech from Chris Martin, which I didn't get round to publishing during the time of the <a href="http://www.coldplaying.com/insight-behind-coldplays-art-exhibition/" title="The Insight Behind Coldplay’s Art Exhibition (Interview)" target="_blank">Ghost Stories Art Exhibition in December 2014</a>. <!--more--> It involves all members of the band, including fifth member (creative boss), Phil Harvey. Chris comments on the album cover for Ghost Stories, before it was decided Mila Fürstová would be designing the artwork for the record and Guy's handsome looks. It's a gem of a quote, enjoy! <blockquote><strong>Chris Martin : "When Phil said, "Should have an album cover for this album", Jonny said it should be a picture of me! Will, our drummer said, "well, that could work, what about a picture of me?", then we all agreed on a picture of Guy, who is our handsomest, with all due respect to the four of us. He is our handsomest member and sells all of our calenders. In concert, most girls look his way! Phil said, "fella's, it's not going to work, you're nearly 50!"</strong></blockquote>

News roundup - new pilot show up
I preferred the first video you showed me, mainly because of no music being in the background. For an intro presentation, we can get some help for you on that. I would suggest to have a monitor or TV in the background, where you can show a Coldplaying logo. That will make a big improvement on the general presentation. Or even a Coldplay poster off Ebay if you haven't got one :P Other points are covered well. The content itself is very good. It would be great as a one-off video too (once a few changes are made), before a 'series' takes place, there isn't anything i'm aware of on AHFOD via Youtube at the moment :)

Apparently called, 'ID (Forever)' or maybe 1D forever, symbolizing Chris' love for that group we don't like mention here :P

Coldplay Nominated for Best British Group for Brit Awards 2015 (Feb 25)
Didn't think Coldplay would win but i'm pleased for Royal Blood, well deserved. Coldplay won 'Best Group' in 2001 as a new-ish band so i'm sure they'll be happy for them :)

It's all one big PR stunt for them, they're the only winners, probably sold an extra few tickets on their site with the publicity :P When the announcement of Saturday and Sunday's shows come, we will know for sure :)

Nah, it was Ian's and/or the mods at the time, I think. I wasn't around either or probably lurking at that time.
