Hello guys! After getting back home from the holidays I've been working hard to bring some much needed updates to just about everything! So, here's a post to let you know what all has changed!


 

Zen Nexus:

Homepage

  • Social Icons Relocated and Updated - This was a small quality of life change but I find it looks and functions much better than having them in the banner.

  • Intro Text Updated - Since certain aspects of the site have updated, I needed to mention those!

Mobile Site - [Edit 1/10/2020]

  • Quick Action Bar Added - Now you can quickly access my Email, Patreon, Twitter, Telegram (art channel), and Chat from any page using the menu located in the bottom, right hand corner.

  • Back to Top Added - When scrolling down, a new button will appear next to the Quick Action button to take you back to the top of the page.

  • Terms of Service Updated - While the rules haven't changed, they have been further clarified.

  • Added Commission Guide - This guide helps explain how to go about commissioning me and what happens.

  • Added Drawing Preferences - To help you better decide what to commission me for, I made a list of things I prefer to draw and things I won't.


Fur Affinity:

  • Padmouse Account Closed - I decided to finally close down my Padmouse account. TL;DR, I don't want to separate my audience and the account has been inactive for a year.

Discord:

  • Voice Chat Added - The Mischief group now has a group voice chat!

Other:
