New Stuff 2 July 2010

[TG]

Yes, I know you're rolling your eyes, thinking "wtf has he broken now?"

Hopefully not much this time.

Besides enabling the CMS and Blogs functionality again, I have mostly figured out how the CMS works. I have changed the layout slightly so it doesn't look so squished (Well, the sidebar doesn't look squished now). I've had two volunteers for Staff Writers so far, but I'm hoping to see more of you, or at least, some decent submissions from time to time. Bear in mind I can promote blog posts to articles as well. In fact, I think I can do the same with forum posts, too.

Besides those enhancements...

New:
If you go to your Settings page, and Edit your Profile... down by the Instant Messaging section, there is a new field, Steam ID.
If you put your Steam ID in there, it will enable some additional functionality for managing your steam friends list. You will get a 'Steam' tab on your personal profile page with your Steam info for your friends, and people will get a Steam icon on their post bits and possibly profile page where you will be able to Add them to your own steam friends list, message them, etc.

Another new thing, which I have not enabled yet because I still need to test it, is a game monitor. This theoretically will have a listing of the BFBC2 servers (and potentially other games), where you will be able to retrieve player listings etc.
Keep an eye out for the button on the Navbar up top.

I think at this rate I'll have to create a 'Features' tab and stick all the cool stuff in a menu under that.
