Site Change History (updated since post date)

Post by admin »

For security reasons, I will no longer post detailed version updates about the site. Apparently, this information could potentially be used by hackers to exploit vulnerabilities in the site. If there are any functional changes, I will continue to post those.


Site (change History):

September, 2022:
Images to display in posts (vs attachments) are now set to resolution max of 6000x6000 pixels.

Updated cookie settings to fix having to log in again if going to url without "www".

June, 2022:
Allow posts to be edited for 30 minutes after submission.

March, 2022:
Increased Private Message folder sizes to 200 messages.

October, 2020:
Some upgrades and attached images up to 6000x3000 pixels will be displayed as thumbnails in the post (instead of attachment links only).

More posting rank images added. Added "1 year Anniversary" logo.

March, 2013:
Maximum characters allowed in a single post increased to 8,000 (previously 6,000). Maximum file attachments allowed per post increased to 10 (previously 7). Floating search bar on right side of header turned off (I felt this was redundant as there is a search button on left side header as well as a pop on the "round button on the left". This will also leave the logo picture unobstructed.).
"Site News" and "Bookmarks" link button added to header.
