• Dungeons - dungeon lists will now generate appropriate thumbnails where the default image has not set an appropriate size yet
• trovesaurus.com/discord now links to a page, where you can see server information first and other club links, instead of directly to the invite link, set your clubs discord url using the clubs pages
• Modularised the image scroller that we use on the mod section so we can use on the rest of the site
• When pages have no image set, we will now permanently generate a random one from our list of default images, instead of having one show randomly every time
• Fixed an issue with the rich text editor, boxes were not appearing for a while.
• Added support for "Now" in the time reporting tool, 0 seconds from now was weird

Art Improvements

• To help reduce potential awkward rankings, the artists page is now more neutral, the page has been condensed and the order changed, artists are now listed in order of their last submission, active artists are considered artists who have submitted something in the last month, previews of their recent art is also displayed, more work will come in future
• Art cards have been attempted to be made less obnoxious, by removing the solid footer when there is something to indicate, we've added delicious ribbons to the top left of art for ones that have a mod note, that you like, and that are invalid for a contest entry due to a missing relation to trove field, or outside the contest time period, the buttons have also been made smaller, and the background behind them removed
• Artist ranks are now granted manually, this will be reviewed around the ending of each contest, criteria should aim to have at 3-5 well received and good effort art, and not been regularly warned about cheating or tracing
• Gallery art cards will now collapse properly on mobiles, instead of going SUPERSMOL
• Large art results (using tag [ artlarge ]) will now use the image scroller if it detects any tags in the description, this will only work on imgur images
• The art page will now also use this image scroller
• Artists requesting feedback will now announce in discord, and display in the seeking feedback list for 7 days before being removed, at the end of 7 days you can request feedback again, at the moment there is no limit to the art you can request feedback from, but if this is abused ill restrict it
• The additional art description box will no longer display if the description is not complicated (no images), added tag processing to the text displayed below the main image
