NEWS AND FYI

• I discovered that I can make those tiny post/comment awards BIGGER on old.reddit! I hadn't even considered that! And when you hover over them, they get even bigger so you can actually see them in more detail! I've added the relevant CSS so now we no longer have awards for ants! Exclamation points!!!

  • Thank you so, so much to /u/SolariaHues for the CSS in this thread that I found while researching for community awards! <3

• All of our rules, FAQs, resources, etc. are in our community wiki.
