If you go into your account menu by clicking your name on the right side of the site header, and from there go to "Account details", you can edit the about section there as well as all other forms of profile customization :)

An issue I'm having with banners is after it's uploaded and you then line it up, it doesn't stay in the boundaries of where you selected.

Fixed! It will still center on posts but that's by design since the height of posts can vary. On your profile page, though, it will now properly respect your custom position :)

Exceedingly minor nit: When composing or editing a post in Safari on a Mac, one can select text, however the selection is not shown. It's as if the highlight color is black. Doesn't seem to be an issue in Firefox or Edge.
 
twitter and youtube posts are working great. :) i tried to make a post from my instagram account, and the media icon says error, instagram is not listed in the media menu. i was wondering if you were adding that, in the future? :)

All right, tons of updates today! Modernized a lot of design elements, and made the site overall far more mobile-friendly. In addition, ToS can now be used as a PWA - if you view the site on Edge/Chrome on desktop, or on any mobile browser, you can basically install ToS as an app if that's something you prefer. Of course, that is fully optional!

I looked into this a bit and it seems like Instagram is restricting embeds a lot more these days than they used to, so it might actually be a bit tricky. Basically it only really works reliably if you're logged in with an Instagram account, which restricts the functionality a bit. That being said, I'm looking into a third party solution for this which will provide at least partial functionality, so stay tuned!

All right, Instagram is now technically supported as an embed link - that being said, it's still very restrictive and may not show to people if they don't have an Instagram account and are logged in. Nothing I can really do about that on my end, unfortunately!

Made some design changes for the site frontpage - namely, I broke the forum list out into its own 'Forums' page. The goal for this is to have the Home page be more of a hub where you can see all the latest updates, and then the Forums page be where you can easily delve into individual forums.

If you prefer the older approach with all the subforums right on the frontpage, you can simply bookmark the Forums page to go straight there every time. There's also a big button right on the frontpage to go there as well! I might still revert this if it's wildly unpopular, but I think it might make sense since most of the times you visit ToS it is specifically to check for updates.

In addition to this, I added support for Featured threads, where specific threads can appear right on the website frontpage. This is very useful for major news and updates since it makes sure everyone sees it easily :)

I like what you've done with the front-page Eltu, easy to navigate, lets you see what's new on your visit, also still very easy to go right back into the forums if one wishes to avoid that page.
