We've shifted focus a little this week and improved some of our World of Warcraft specific features available on the site.

Enhanced Item Tooltip
Previously, we had used the item information made available from Allakhazam to show item tooltips. With the release of item information from the Armory we have updated our tooltips to pull data directly from the armory, which provides several advantages: item information will never be outdated or not found, and we can show much more information in the tooltip.

To show the difference this makes for our item tooltips, we've included a screenshot of our old tooltip and its information vs our new one

New Item Tooltip:


Enhanced Armory View
Along with enhancing the item tooltips, we spent some time enhancing the Armory character view as well. It now shows more information, has an improved layout and looks more polished.

We've created screenshots of the old vs new armory character view as well:

Excellent upgrades :)

Is anyone else having an issue responding to forum posts atm?

Hi Reiko:

we made some changes to the layout with this update also, and an element was incorrectly moved to cover the edit/delete buttons in some forum posts >_< it is now fixed though =)

Are there ANY plans at all to change "Polls" so that they can be visible only to certain members? For instance, a voting thread for a probationary member, shouldn't be visible to that member... Any plans for that?

Hi Allannaa:

Our next update to the guild sites will be to the polls section and we can likely add privacy levels as a feature with it =) I have added it to our list of features to look at during the update.

Cheers,
