It's been over a month now since we launched the new Lionhead community site, complete with blogs, forums and galleries! Pretty cool stuff. Back when we launched, we said we'd keep working on it, taking your feedback and suggestions into consideration where possible.
In the last couple of weeks we've seen the first few changes, but mainly in the background, under the hood so to say. Smaller visual improvements have also been made to how the site look. If you like lists then get ready for some really hot stuff:
- New [ quote ] boxes
- Wider message areas (the borders scale with the window size)
- Different looks for the different blogs
- A nice drop shadow under the middle area of the site
- Bug fixes, optimization and clearer descriptions
Of course we will keep working on this site in the future and resolve issues that might already exist or come up in time. For next week we've got the two features planned;
[UPDATE] Custom Titles and Skype contact field have been added. We've found a better way to display the TMO badges, so they'll be added later.
A lot of people have been asking about the recent badges that some people have received and how one could be awarded these. Once a month the administrators and moderators talk in private about any member that deserves recognition for their contribution. The former High Karma's input is then also taken into account in another private conversation and when they are finally handed out they stay with your account for life, unless you get a permanent ban. Some badges only last for a specific time before it gets passed on to someone else and some of the available badges also give someone access to the Private Member Boards.
We've also got a nice image explaining all the different sections on your forum profile, or postbit info as we call it;
