LOL! I just found out that artwork and artists cannot be fave'd more than once anymore. I will try to fix this today or tomorrow. Favorites are really frustrating...

[Moka]

They're such a pain...but I think I got them working just fine. I'm sorry, again.

Everyone now has the option to reply to comments made anywhere in MLKFAA. You'll see a "Reply" option at the lower right hand corner of comments within MLKFAA. Completing this was the most difficult thing I've had to do yet, so it might have some errors that I haven't noticed yet. If something looks wrong, please tell me so on my journal post. Thanks to RikoDuroska for the idea!

Alright, for the most part, characters are ready to be used. You can start by making your very first character by clicking here. Once your character is submitted, it will appear in the Character tab of your album. When viewing your character, you will see the information you have sent as well as a section titled "Featured In...". This is where you can link art and characters together, by "tagging" artwork with your character in them. This particular section is not quite ready yet, so for now please ignore the "Featured In..." section. For an example of what tagging is, visit Simba's Character Profile, where I have "tagged" Simba in some of your art. I plan on adding a "Favorite this Character" option as well as a "Delete this Character". Characters are in their very beginning stages, so obviously some features won't be available. Please be patient! I'm done with them for tonight =P

Hi! Sorry I've been gone a few days xD I've been busy. I managed to put in a new color picker (yes, yet another one). This one is actually a good one and it's really easy to use. It's just like the one in Photoshop and it works great. I fixed a problem with the edit artwork table thing in your "edit my account" page. Thanks to Zeke for noticing this. I made it so you can type in your species when you make a new character (which allows for all characters). You don't need scientific names. Names like "Lion" or "Meerkat" will suffice. Thanks to Majordomo for suggesting this. I also fixed some problems with character portraits. If an artist has submitted characters, their characters will appear on their album page as tiny thumbnails :] More updates with characters coming soon!

[Moka]

Ok I think I fixed the characters. People who have submitted characters can edit them and upload new portraits, it should work :] Thanks EVERYONE for telling me it was broken *lol* If there's a problem with the FAA you should PM me! I think I'm friendly...O_o

[Moka]

There is a new option you can do with artwork: Tagging characters! You can now match (or "Tag") a character with your artwork. Tagging characters is simple! To learn how, read this document. Some of you may notice that some characters have been tagged in your artwork already. That was just me playing around with it :] Enjoy! Please report any bugs you find.

[Moka]

You can now remove characters. You will find the delete links in your character's profile page or your Account -> Characters. :]

Hello everyone! Just to let you all know - I should be back TONIGHT at MLK. I had some internet problems and couldn't get online. Through the various computers I've used to see what's going on at MLK, I have noticed that MLKFAA is very disfigured when viewed in Internet Explorer. I'm pretty sure the functionality works fine, but the layout is all messed up. I will work on fixing this within the next month. It's difficult for me because I don't have Internet Explorer 6 on my computer. If you have Internet Explorer 6 or 7, you should upgrade to the new version: IE 8. I believe Microsoft finally fixed Internet Explorer when they updated it this time. Thanks, and sorry!

Ok everyone, I'm caught up around MLK with new posts and such. I'm ready to begin working on MLKFAA again. I should be able to start tomorrow night Expect to see some changes with characters. I'm trying to focus on them.
