Annoucement Big update over the next few days

[sleepy]

We need to do some updates to the forum over the next few days. We still have a lot more features to roll out over the next few months, but coming soon:

- Picture uploading is now even easier - just drag and drop images into the post editor, or right click on any image anywhere on the web, click on copy, come back to the post edit box here, right click -> paste, thats it).

- A full editor with smileys on mobile devices

- Mobile app is updated and fixed some of the bugs hopefully

- Ability to watch an entrie forum (ie. get an alert whenever a new thread is posted in dd forum if that is what you are interested in)

- 'Bookmarking' posts / threads of particular interest to you

- Improvements to conversation manager (search conversations, delete conversations easier etc)

- Editing post titles in case you make a spelling mistake when you create a thread

- Post edit history & revisions

- Automatic saving of post replies

- Hopefully a return of the live updates of alerts

- And a million other small fixes.

It is all working well on the staging system, it will require an hour or so of downtime whilst everything is swapped over to production. We will probably do this late at night but I will update this thread once we have decided when
