	         |      NEW RS FEATURES! LARGE AVATARS FOR ALL!       
			
			Starting now,  everyone will be able to upload a 100x100 avatar! 
Avatars must be under 15KB, and cannot be animated.   ALSO!!! 
Everyone can upload a larger  300 pixel picture that is displayed on their profile. This is like having a super big avatar that everyone can see when they view your profile.   
It would be a good time to mention now that  profiles are now a LOT more robust than in previous years. You can now leave comments on profiles, just like a Facebook wall. Also, you can now have a friends list, and stay up to date with other RS members. You can set the privacy to show only certain information on your profile if you want.   BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!!! 
Starting now, everyone has access to their own  photo album, where they can post up to 30 of their own photos!  
These photos can be shared throughout the forums, and social groups.  
Photos must be no larger than 800px in any direction, and smaller than 50KB.  
You only have 30, so use them wisely! This isn't for the trash that usually gets posted as attachments. Rather, it's for posting pics like for the photo forum, show off your rides, show off your desktop in the computer forum, etc. These are perfect for using with the Social Groups.  
The same rules apply to posted photos as they do in the general forums:  NO NSFW PHOTOS ALLOWED IN USER ALBUMS. This is without exception. Try it once, and be insta-banned.  
Otherwise, enjoy the new features! Hopefully the ads will be a bit more tolerable now, to the non-douchebags who aren't blocking them (thanks for your support!)

I know I granted special access to some members who requested it but I can't recall who it all was now.  So, if you were able to see it before and after the next couple hours are unable to, please shoot me a PM and I'll fix it for you.
