Wetpaint Update for December 2007 Season's greetings, Wetpainters! This is our last update for 2007, and we've saved the best for last! The headlining features debuting this month are Compliments, the new and improved Weekly Digest Email, and a generous new allowance for file attachments to your wiki. We also hope to make the season just a little brighter for educators, with a new ad-free wiki option for qualifying education wikis. Read on for the details... Fresh Wetpaint Features Compliments Make someone's day -- give them a compliment! You can now send a fellow wiki member a compliment via Wetpaint. Choose from a menu of predefined compliments or create your own custom accolade. If a user approves your compliment, an icon will be displayed on their profile page. If that user is subscribed to email, he or she will also get a notification of your compliment in their inbox. Compliments are a great way to motivate others to edit pages, participate in threads, and build the site! We are so excited about this new feature, we've even created two videos that illustrate how to send a compliment and how to approve or deny a compliment. Enjoy! Sending a Compliment Receiving a Compliment more Weekly Digest Email You can now receive a Weekly Digest delivered to your inbox every Thursday. This new email replaces Stats Flash and is designed to give you a snapshot of what happened on your wiki during the previous week, with convenient links back to specific areas of your wiki. The Weekly Digest includes: "Stats at a Glance" section, with your wiki rank Highlights from the Discussion Forum New members New pages Page edits New images If you are already a Stats Flash subscriber, you will automatically receive the Weekly Digest email. If you'd like to subscribe, go to your Profile and check the Weekly Digest option in your Email Notifications area. more Attachment Storage Increase Double your attachments, for double the fun! We've increased the size limit for each attachment to 2 megs. You can also now have 40 attachments per site! Attach away! more Invitation Reminders Invited a busy-bee and she hasn't joined your site yet? Now you can have an invite reminder sent automatically after three days. We only send a reminder once! Select this option in the invitation wizard. Most wiki members have joined because they received an email invitation from someone they know. This feature will help ensure your wiki won't miss out on important potential members! more Discussion Forum Enhancements We've made a few small adjustments to the Discussion Forum. The thread "location" is now noted on each discussion forum page so you know where the action is happening. We also added avatars to the last reply function so you can more easily see who's behind each comment. more
