Comments: exposed!
At some point, somebody (or a group of people) asked me if we had a page out there that displayed all of the comments they left across the site. Of course, that feature did not exist at the time, so I added it to the list of components to create. Yesterday, I stealthily updated the site to include said functionality.
A brand new polling function and slight improvements to the private messaging system headline our latest set of changes.
Hi every-body! I must apologize for the delayed release notes for this latest changelog. Somewhere around 10PM EST yesterday I released the actual changes to the site, but did so silently. I'm sure some of you have noticed them already, particularly the minor upgrades to the private messaging system.
Private Messaging! Notifications! The ability to hit the Enter key to log in! All this and more in today's changelog.
If you were up (for whatever reason) around 1:30AM last night, you might've noticed that a new feature stealthily dropped and hit the home screen. That feature is the frequently requested Private Messaging system! But wait, there's more!
Been losing blogs due to being logged out? NEVER AGAIN.
Howdy PixlBit friends! Your friendly neighborhood director-man stopping in to lay a quick changelog on you regarding tonight's update. While there are certainly a number of items on the plate, I wanted to address this one first, based on some feedback I've seen scattered about the blogs.
New features incoming!
Howdy PixlBit friends! As you know, the site is in need of a few upgrades to improve its usability. As such, I've been working hard to roll these features out as quickly as possible. Today's changelog isn't too hefty, but I think it's a good starting point for some of the bigger stuff coming down the line.
Only with your help can we make PixlBit great.
I am humbled. It’s impossible to feel any other way at this particular moment in time. Well, maybe just a wee bit overwhelmed. I feel that too. After three and a half years of running the site, we’ve never seen a response quite like this. I too mourn the loss of 1up, but I couldn’t possibly feel more proud and honored to have all of you refugees claim this site as your new home on the Internet.
Come in, kick your shoes off, and set a spell.
Hello there. I’m Julian, and I’m ostensibly the previews guy around PixlBit, but lately I’ve been doing a lot of reviews, podcasts, and features, so that’s kind of a less than truthful title. I’m writing this piece, and it’s a bittersweet thing to do. On one hand, we’re seeing an influx of new members to PixlBit, and I couldn’t be happier to see that. So, welcome, one and all! I just wish that influx wasn’t the result of 1up getting shuttered. With that being said, I’d like to explain a little about our roots in 1up, and take you new readers and contributors on the grand tour. Please, join me.
