New dakka release just went up... Just a minor one...

Features:
Gallery search can now be 1 or 2 images wide to look better on mobile as per kyoto's request
Facebook promo on the front page
Anti spammer word requirement added to registration page.
Gallery pages now all support oembed (json and xml)
Changed login box location for non logged in users in forum to promote registrations and logins.

Fixes:
Mail server switched to new server, no more 'where is my activation email' emails.
Other minor fixes

The change to logging in is really convenient, now to have a root around in the gallery! Great work as always Lego

Can't say I'm a fan of the Dakka Facebook box... completely destroys the flow. If ye' could move it down the page...

**legoburner**

The facebook box is necessary in that location for the time being to ensure there is enough takeup to justify the effort involved in implementing the facebook content feed. I'll likely move it down at some point in the future though to restore the space for rotating content.

just curious why i have all these blue links to take surveys and other annoying stuff, is this part of the release and is it permanent?

**legoburner**

can you provide a screenshot jordanis? That sounds like something dodgy on your system or ISP, there was nothing along those lines included in this update.

Thanks Lego!
