    I'm writting up some guides

    alot of them came with the upgrade and so as such came in one go

    some of the features are

    photo albums on your profiles - you can upload images of whatever you wish (within the sites rules)
    Visitor messages on profiles - you can receive or leave public message on each others profiles, almost like a buildings guestbook for people to sign :)
    $GC - are like fairground tokens, theya re fictional "money" used to play arcade games and unlock new features at GC, this feature is still being put together how nathan likes it, as i'm just a Tech, i can't say exactly how much it will be used for

    at my own forum there ae over 100 things you can use the points for

    even a Stock Trader simulation (uses real stock values in a fictional setting allowing people to own fictional stock that changes value with its real world counterpart, stock is bought with $GC.. aka also fictional money earned by posting, every post earns a few $GC))
