Just a couple new goodies added to the place. Been a few days now but I did add a few extra smilies.
Plus the ability to mention someone in a post. There is no button for it, however just type @ then the persons name you want to mention and a box will show up to select the name. It gets converted to a Mention bbcode and the person will get a forum notification letting them know of the mention. Kind of a Twitter like feature. (fun fact, Fading Obsession predates Twitter)
Media is the new button close to the dropdown (defaults to Normal). It allows an easy way to embed media from several sources just by putting the address in the tag it makes. The sites I have enabled this feature to support are:
Amazon Product
Facebook
Flickr
Getty Images
Google Drive
Google +
Imgur
Instagram
Internet Archive
Pinterest
Spotify
TikTok
Tumblr
Twitch
Twitter
Vevo
Vimeo
VK
Youtube
