[animated_guy]

We've got several projects on the burners but until we get more staff in we're just letting them simmer for the moment.

Hmmm.
like what?

YES! Eventually.

Nice to hear I'm dreaming about some nice tiny RSS based animated-news widget so I can place it in my dashboard and keep an eye on it

What would you like for them to be?

[Christian]

Hmm, we used to have an RSS thing.

RSS is definitely on the radar. A release date calendar will be coming soon. Plus some other big things we're keeping under wraps for the time being.

I've mentioned this elsewhere on the forum but let me add it here since it relates to our timetable for new features. My wife has been offered a new job in another state. So we are currently in the process of relocating. Hopefully we'll be settled in by the end of August or beginning of September. Once that is done look for us to be ready to implement some cool new stuff!

That was a test that didn't work out so great!

Here's one small new feature for the forums to tide you over for now!

You can now post YouTube videos directly into your forum posts! When you're writing a message just put the YouTube video URL between the following tags, by either typing it out or using the new YouTube button on the formatting bar!

Code: Select all

[youtube]YouTube video URL here[/youtube]

Here is a what it will look like: example post.

We do have a few rules that must be followed and will be enforced.

- No videos that are obviously copyrighted.
- Animation related videos only.
- Family friendly videos only since children may be present.
- Post only in the INTERNET forum unless directly related to another forum topic.

Yes the site was down for some maintenance today, but because of some of the changes that were made to the backend of the site we will be able to bring you some new features and fix some broken ones! Look for the search engine and archives to be up and running again later this week!

And new today, FINALLY... an Animated News RSS feed! Check it out here:

Err, what's an RSS feed?

And yay, new features!

Any hints, James?...
