Extension functions
Now when you edit extensions, instead of inputing a number for how many extensions you would like to describe, there is a drop-down number list. I hope this will make more sense to some people. Also the function boxes look slightly better, but I think they should be worked on a bit more.
File names
Now instead of the download file names being "num_1.zip", "num_2.zip" and on, the file names are the same as the extension names. Better, huh?
MarkUp - September
The September MarkUp Magazine is out, and with it our reviewed extension. I currently have no review for their next magazine, so if anyone would like to write one leave a shout or email me. Reviews can be in plain text, without formating.
Edit
I've actually got one now. However, I'll still accept more for other future MarkUps.

Delete Comments
Now you can delete your comments as well as edit them. This is useful when you accidentally double-post. Just now I went through some extensions and deleted empty and doubled comments.
News Comments
You can now comment on news articles!! This is a great way to give me feedback! You can test it out on this article!
Referral images
Now the extension referral images get created right away when you upload an extension, so you don't have to wait for me to re-cache them before use.
My little to-do list
These are things I will or may implant. If you ever have a suggestion for an improvement of the site, please leave a comment here and I may add it to one of these lists.
Things I want to implant in time
- Rewrite website in CakePHP
- Let users have server resend the verification code and username/password.
- Multilevel Admin system
- Let search engine search through functions' descriptions and main descriptions
- PM system
Things being considered for the future
- Smilies for all text areas.
- Admin rating system that's shown separate from the average rating.
- Extension Reviews
- A change password form
- User images
- Store User's last logon
- Generate help files for extensions on the fly
- Force the website to only show the first 7 functions or so on extension pages, and then have a link to another page showing the rest of the functions.
Screenshots Panal
Now on the right side bar of your extension pages you will see a "Edit Screenshots" button. From there you can delete unwanted screenshots that you or other people uploaded.
Screenshots
Now you can upload screenshots of your extensions! Not only can you, but anyone can actually! That's right, as long as your logged on, you can add screenshots to extensions even if they are not yours! Make sure they actually belong to the extension though. Also, there will be thumnails on the categories page for each extension.
Sorting
You can now sort the extensions on the categories page, by date, name, rating and downloads. There is also an "All" category, making the All Extensions page not needed. Thus it is removed.
