Cookyx has recently received a few new features and and a ton of ways to received cookies. Not only that but there have been a lot of fixes done through out the site and I'm sure you're all very happy.
First thing's first. New User Panel. I know it's not much but people have been saying it was kind of monotone. But, people, you have to realize, Cookyx is a single-serving website. Anyway, the user panel now shows a bit more information of when you login.
Secondly, go ahead... go to a forum topic... or maybe even go the leaderboards. Then login from the top-right. What happens? You log in and go back from you last were! Yes, a feature long-requested and I have found a way to do it. However, when you login from login.php directly, you will end up at your User Panel.
Thirdly, Referrals. Yeah, Cookyx surely needs people to stay alive. What better incentive is it that if you refer someone, you get cookies. This referral system has tested my limits but I think I pulled through. Definitely one of my favorite works and most challenging. You will find your referral link at your User Control Panel. Give it to people, and you can earn cookies. To read more about referrals, click here.
Fourthly, Avatars... Before, only the standard version of the signature supported PNG avatars but now you can upload PNG, JPEG, and GIF avatars! Don't feel like uploading? You can select from one of the three avatar galleries.
Fifthly? Go to any forum topic like Introductions, or Suggestions. What do you see? I have finally found a way to put in forum markers inside each topic to better distinguish what topic has a new post. Of course, since this is new, all posts are marked unread. But don't worry, I'll soon be making a Mark Unread on All feature. I'm just tired, at the moment.
Lastly, communication is a key in a part of any website success. That is now why from here on, you get 1 cookie for every post and 2 cookies for every topic. Be warned, I will not be soft with spammers.
Well, that is all for now. If you find any bugs, be sure to post them in the forums!
