Here's the little prank we pulled. Hope no one got too distressed out!
Okay... let's try not to panic! The forums have been hijacked and taken over by a hacker. We have NO clue who it is. He ended up demoting all of the staff and promoting all regular members to admin status. PLEASE go to the forums! Try and look through the admin panel and see if you can unban some of the admins! And try to ban the hacker! His username is, uniquely enough hacker. :K Once you have been able to do something, please post in the comments! And since we still have control of the news, we'll be able to post updates. We really thank you for all your help!!!!!

Referral System Completely Revamped!

Thanks to Galem for pointing out that the Referral System has been completely revamped!
The prizes have now been changed, and not really for the better! In order to get a basic paint brush, you need 50 referrals. However, if you want an "exotic" paint brush, you need a whopping 100 referrals! To see all prizes, see the link below:
Another change is that you can now see the users you have referred. Frozen and Unactivated do not count towards your referral count. Though this new feature seems a little out of whack, as some of the Unactivated accounts are still counting. You can find your referral list at these two links:
Oh, and if you're looking to sign up with a new account anytime soon (like a gallery or side account), click the button below!
