The usual rapid-fire style…
We’re sporting some new tabs that are faster and require fewer requests (plus they’re smaller file size).
We’ve torn out the old crop tool for a totally different one.
For the few members that noticed it existed, we squashed the pesky little bug where your crop was totally inaccurate.
We switched to Rackspace from The [...]

We found out that GIFs weren’t working for a lot of people, and PNGs for a lot of others. We hacked together a fix, so now things should be working better with background images of all types.

I just added 9 new fonts to the banner maker, including long-time designer favorites like Meta, Georgia, and LTUnivers (the movie poster credit font), 2 grunge fonts, and a few other ’special’ fonts. Check ‘em out!

Okay the FAQ has long needed some additional work, and I found some time this morning to put that work in. Here’s a list of the updates:
Easier visibility. When you click on a question at the top of the page, all of the question/answers at the bottom disappear except for the one you clicked on. [...]

Not really a HUGE change, but definitely one that I’ve been eying for quite a while. The font picker now lines the samples up in tidy little rows and columns so they’re easier to traverse. Plus I updated a tidbit of JavaScript related to the picker that should boost performance a slight bit (less reading [...]

It’s been causing some issues when you have zero banners under your account, so it’s disabled until I have the time to go back and add it back in. It’s not exactly a priority at the moment, though.
