out the URL and submit your changes.

:: 20 and 25 Favorites Now Available For Double Column! ::
Premium Members+ using our Double Column feature can now increase the
number of favorites displayed in the right hand column of each page to 20
or 25. As the number of favorites increases, the amount of blank space between
each decreases. Showing 10, 15, 20 and 25 favorites take up about the same
"browser height". To set this preference, visit your My Account page and click
to change your Preferences.

:: Scrolling Messages Trivia ::
Members can sponsor Scrolling Message Trivia Games for everyone to play!
Game players will try to answer the questions that you set for them. The first
player to correctly answer the question will win the Gift Point prize you have
provided for this game. Each game that you create runs only one time and it
runs as soon as you create it!

Our Scrolling Messages system is a great way to meet other writers and the
games system makes it also a great way to win Gift Points! Sponsoring
games is a great way to get exposure for your own portfolio and help make
yourself known while supporting Writing.Com and your fellow members!

Scrolling Messages is part of our IM Console which can be launched from
your Member Tools pull down menu. To sponsor a trivia game, click the
[G] link found in the Scrolling header section.


:: How Many Per Page? ::
Installed a few weeks ago, our Per Page selector is available from the paging
system on the item and author listing pages as well as forum message listing
pages. This feature will be added to other paging systems in the future.


:: New WritingML: lPost (LPOST) ::
Our new WritingML tag called 'lPost' (L for line post) displays both a post link
and a byline for the post's author. For example, {lpost:942191} will yield:
         "Invalid Post"   by A Guest Visitor

New to Writing.Com or WritingML? Further help using and learning WritingML
can be found in the WritingML Help section of the Author Tools pull down.


:: Vote In Poll Then Rate/Review Error Fixed! ::
Anyone who's ever voted in a poll and then rated/reviewed the poll immediately
after has experienced the "Item Not Found." error. While the rating/review
were always recorded correctly, members were returned to an invalid page.
I'm pleased to say this error is now fixed!
