First off, some news and housecleaning:

1. Four days left for our Ar Tonelico 2 contest!

2. Our Celestial Donation Drive is going well, but you can still do your part to contribute - let's see if we can break $300! If you already got upgraded, why not spread the cheer and upgrade someone else, pay it forward!

Now on to FFVIII. Not, Final Fantasy VIII, but our new thing, the FRIDAY FEATURE VII.

We now have a way for you to do quick edits or touch-ups to your pictures directly in your control panel! This is a feature available to all members, and it only works on costumes that are already on your page. When you go to the picture section of your costume in the control panel, you will see a new button under each pic, "Edit This Picture". Clicking on it will take you to picnik, an online photo editor. Now you're able to Resize, Rotate, Crop, etc. After you're done making changes, there will be a button in the upper right, labeled, "Send to ACP" (or ACE). Click on that, and your picture will be sent and automatically updated!

The photo editor requires Flash, and it takes a while to load the first time, but loads pretty quickly afterwards. It's no photoshop, but it lets you do a lot of basic stuff, right in your browser!
