It was one heck of a Friday! Had to pick up and move YWS HQ because somehow people managed to find it even in the middle of the tundra. So we moved to this place that had this weird brushstroke feel to it, and then all of a sudden all these people showed up! It was crazy; there was a centaur, plenty of flavored water, and lots of food.

Needless to say, YWS HQ gorged itself and has thus added on an inch. Rather than letting this extra inch go to waste, we've added a new button for Groups in the header. Will it stay there? Depends; YWS HQ could always go for a run and lose it, but it's the weekend and we're tired from the crazy feast yesterday.

A snapshot taken from a YWS photographer:

*gasp* Nate! You should tell some of those women to cover up! That's indecent.

Last time it was for Action/Adventure writers, now it's for Fantasy writers. Where do we head for next time, Captain? Raxacoricofallapatorius for the Sci Fi peeps?

Perhaps it's just my browser, but the "Help & Support" button is chilling underneath "Home" and there's a big white space next to "Messages".

... Is that supposed to be there? o_O

You need to refresh. That fixed it for me.

People with problems - just press refresh. It's been happening to tons of people, including me, and refresh (strangely) works.

Ooers! The place to type is bigger, too!

Now that I have my scrolling header back, I'm loving the extra inch, Nate. Smile

Yay! Loving the Groups button - much easier.

And the scrolling header no longer shifts the whole site that millimetre to the right, either - so it's all good!

Ummm...has there always been two Register's on the homepage? Is this a result of this new inch or not? Maybe it's just because I'm paying more attention but I haven't noticed it before. Razz
