if you have not moved your images to the new scratchupload.org domain (all you have todo is just change .xyz to .org) please do so soon.

if you need any help please let us know!

thank you so much

-# please share this around so people see, a huge % of images are still being served on the .xyz domain

This is a bugfix update - not a lot of changes made to the UI/Front end code and few new features have been added

This is going to be the last update for this month, we are going to be holding on updating anything more until a bit into July, but we should have gotten a lot done by then.

as always please keep reporting bugs and issues you have! we are here to fix them.

thank you so much, and stay safe out there :)

This weekend we are going to be pushing out a bug fix

**with this update** (so this weekend) you will no longer be able to access the dashboard or ScratchFront from the .xyz domain, it will show up with a error saying to use the .org domain (ScratchUpload.org)

__images will still work__ if you haven’t moved them over to the new domain, we are moving up this up by a month so we can make sure everyone is on the correct domain.

The member bios have a max length of 4 Billion characters (that’s longer then both the Odyssey *and* Iliad combined)

After *months* of work, the full rehual of the UI is done!

CHANGE LOG 1.6.0

Also as a bit of transparency - we make absolutely nothing off of this project. We don’t even get enough donations to cover the servers month to month.

Also

Who ever attempted to doxxed us, that’s not going to stop us from continuing to work on our project, we care too much for something like that to stop us. While it’s sad to watch and read what some parts of this community say about other devs like the devs of SP an octocon. There is no reason for that much hate to be directed at anyone person who is taking time out of their day and life to build something for the community only to have said community rip you to shreds and or threaten you. Thats not okay. Thats why projects get shutdown is because of how the community As a WHOLE acts.
