1) Added RSS! The hidden 'link' should be on all pages (so if your browser has a plugin to detect when RSS feeds are available, it should detect it). Also added a link on the main News page (upper-right corner).

2) Gave Skull a custom icon.

3) Gave CocoMonkey a custom icon (whether he uses it or not is up to him).

4) Fixed bug where custom icons weren't displayed in edit profile page correctly.

5) Fixed bug where users could specify icons they shouldn't have access to.

Hah. Just as I was talking to Leprochaun yesterday. ("Wait, since when was there an RSS link on the news page? I never even look at that page...") It's empty right now, though, according to Opera's built-in reader. Even though I can clearly see news items appearing in the raw XML. Will figure out more once I can be bothered to do so.

It's not as if I compulsively check the board anyway. No, sir. Not me.

LATE ADDITION: I should note that I *did* see entries in the feed (Opera's built-in reader) yesterday/last night. They were all dated the same, though.

Seems like the Dink Network just exploded with activity these past two days!

I've always imagined Sabretrout as a trout with a sword sticking out of it's stomach. <.<

EDIT: Give Robj a cookie jar so we can stop worrying, and he can steal from a more camouflaged position?

Liquid, don't forget about the contest. You'll have more dmods at the end of the month/early march

There should be quite a few too. This year is not going to be like last year for dmod releases!

I find it both impressive and surprising that someone with only one dmod -which has a score of 5.8 - seems to have what I think are the most popular tutorials. Just so no confusion happens this is meant to be an endearing post, not one of its antonymous equivalents.

"I find it both impressive and surprising that someone with only one dmod -which has a score of 5.8 - seems to have what I think are the most popular tutorials"

This is mainly because the dmod I have was made when I was first learning how to make dmods, there was nothing planned, so it was a dmod I made up as I went along to test things out, and then I released it. I haven't released a dmod since, but when I do, it will KILL my previous dmod.

"RobJ's tutorials are fab. I watched every single one (that was out at the time) before I started working on Malachi the Jerk."
Thank you. I am glad I can help people.

heh, I can still remember when I last played Robj's one and only uplodaded Dmod... Good times were had.

Combined with all of the Let's Play videos and Tutorials, the few other miscellaneous clips (such as the three-year aniversary video) still show a form of improvement as well, mostly in terms of gameplay and video-editing skills.

Unfortunately, in the above mentioned anniversary vid, he mentions two Dmods. Will it be one, both, or neither that he'll release? Or will he indeed release the Tutorial mod, along with several suddenly uploaded additional tutorials? DUN DUN DUNNN... time will tell.
