🔥 Character effects
Characters in Design now have a "Character effects" group. The effect is its own layer placed right under the character: hide it, rename it, duplicate it (several effects on one character) or delete it.
- Light and shape: Light, Backlight, Sticker, Double, Shadow.
- Animated: Haze, Fire, Sparks, Aura, Sparkles, Neon outline, Glitch, Hologram.
- Realistic fire — living flames with sparks, smoke and a warm glow on the character. Works with any colour, so blue or green fire is possible too.
- Every effect has colour, strength and a "Speed and smoothness" slider.
All animations loop with the scene, so the finished showcase has no jump at the seam.
🌸 Sakura, lightning and snow — for real now
- Sakura: real petals that tumble in the air, drift with the wind and fade into the distance.
- Lightning: branching bolts with a flash of the sky.
- New "Soft snowfall": soft flakes at different depths.
✨ A new editor
- Process and Design now use the full screen width.
- Once you pick a background, the page settles on the editor and stops scrolling, so nothing moves while you work.
- A new look for every panel, icons and clear slider values.
- The same colour picker everywhere: Auto, ready colours and your own.
- Frame shapes are easy to see in the picker.
- The Templates item was removed.
🛠 Around the site
- The Showcases page got a translucent look, and its Achievement showcase card now animates with real letter achievements from Steam games.
- In the gallery, clicking an author opens their public profile or all their works.
- A tidier site header: language, notifications and account buttons.
- Language switching now works on the News, Support and Account pages.
