Here I will post all the updates I do to the main website rather than load up the front page or twitter with what could be real minor things. This post is not open to replies just to keep it clean.

Fixed the "View by category" not allowing you to view "Crowdfunding" as it was first in the list.

Added "Editors Picks" text to articles block for when anyone stickies an article to it.

Remove "Topic Locked" and "Sticky Topic" text on the forum topics title to much nicer icons.

I fixed up other stuff too but didn't keep a log oops.

Fixed a bug when an admin approves a user submitted game sale for all submitted sales to be approved..oops!

Gave profiles content a content box - oops.

When submitting an article anyone not logged in has to leave their email, but not their name.

If someone doesn't leave their name on article submission they will be called "Guest" - oops should have done that from the start!

If an editor denies posting a submitted article they can leave an email message to say why.

Removed "[" and "]" from article urls if used in the title, oops.
