There have been many little updates on the site recently, but I didn't make a news about them.

As you've probably noticed, some of the members on the site will be able to post news on the site; they will focus on the things happenings on the site, could it be contests or a selection of the interesting articles posted.

I've programmed a new search engine. The previous one used Google, so it wasn't really dedicated to searching on the site. I've made one that should be enough exhaustive for you to search about anything concerning Balto or whatever you wish to search. For easier access, I've moved it up on the site.

There's an automatic generator for entrance pictures. These pics used to be created by the fanart moderators when you submitted pics. The problem is that the site is growing and growing, and the mods couldn't get to make all the pics, not even mentionniong the loads of requests for changing your entrance pics. Now, it only takes a few seconds to make a new one, and it's automatic, a bit in the same way it's done on sites like DeviantArt.
Of course, the drawback is that they are less accurate than the "human-made" ones, but I've still tried to make them look like the same as before.
If you don't like and want to change your current gallery entrance pic, you just have to go to the send page, click on "Gallery options" at the top, and then go to "Change my gallery entrance picture" - just like before, but now they will be changed immediately.

Similar questions and articles are now displayed when you read one : this should help getting more information (for questions), and more interesting articles; and I must say it's working pretty well. Try reading an article and looking at the bottom for more!

I've reorganized the forum, so that it's more "tidy" - I know some of you were confused by this change, but this was becoming necessary in order to be able to expand the forums. So, I've added new sections, especially sections for Lion king and more "fan" sections not related to Balto. In a general way, everything which doesn't concern Balto has been moved out into other sections, so that now, there are "several forums in one forum"!

I've done a lot of other little changes, but it would be too long to list them so I let you discover them.
