Site Updates, API, Portfolio/Comic Exposure

Hi everyone,

Just a handful of updates to report. But they are important ones!

Site Updates

* New Feature - The API (Application Programming Interface) has been officially released. This allows anyone to write external scripts that can connect directly to the Inkbunny core without having to go through the regular HTML user interface. Mobile apps (for Android, etc), widgets for websites and other custom scripts and tools are examples of what might make use of the API.

For now the API is focused on essential Submission search/retrieve functions. More features are coming soon. Please let us know what API functionality you want for your scripting ideas and we'll see if we can get it added sooner.

Check out the full documentation and details here. http://wiki.inkbunny.net/API

* Portfolios and Comics now have their own promotional section on the front page. We have also changed the time ranges and sort methods under "Latest" and "Popular" so older work isn't hidden so fast. Hopefully this will help people find it all more easily.

* Two less pages in the upload process. "Visibility" has been merged with Submission Details, and the Pools screen is now totally optional as you upload. Hopefully this helps make it all a bit easier. More changes to reduce the number of pages/clicks for upload are planned.

* Auto-post to Twitter is temporarily disabled while we update the authentication system. They changed the way external applications like Inkbunny are allowed to connect to Twitter, so we have to update our code. But hopefully it won't take too long.

Don't forget Site News is now on Twitter - https://twitter.com/inkbunny_news

That's it for this week! Have fun! :3

I'm really glad I joined Inkbunny, this place is gonna grow beautifully I'm sure =) Love the API flexibility, not that I know how to program/code, but be sure to tell us when someone makes a spiffing new widget!
Thanks Starling :3

Down from 8 steps to 5 (6 if you choose a Pool). I like it :3 Much better that way, although I still think that the pools can be done via drop-down menu just like the privacy settings.

Did my insane ramblings provide suggestion? Or were you planning this anyways?
