    Yes we have. First a suitable mobile version for the site is coming and then a mobile app.

    Is there a way to comment on the Blog posts with your Cantina profile? It would make things easier when it came to commenting if you could do that rather than typing your "name" every time or whatever.

    Yes I thought about this. The problem is that our comment section on the blog is pretty complicate because of the anonymous option and some other bits. I think we can think of an entirely new comment section. Too much stuff to do in the future and too little time. :)

    Other forums I'm on have a news section on the front page that work similar to the blog but it makes it a forum post for a new thread. Look at smashboards.com as an example

    How about an image gallery with several sections?
    Leaked Photos
    Concept Art
    Fan Art
    Official Releases
    Actors/Actresses
    etc...

    How about an "I agree" or "Rodger, Rodger" button with a battle droid. And quick question; do the great post, wise, original, informative, optimistic, funny, or friendly buttons give you a credit like the "like" button does?

    No, they do not. The add-on for this feature is limited in this regard.

    As for the "I agree" idea, the premise of the buttons that we provided is that IF you agree with someone you will rate their post accordingly to the range. For example green means you like or agree and then more specifically you find the post informative or funny or wise etc... And vice versa.

    Hey, just wondering if there are any plans to start posting to other social media sites as you do on Facebook? Seen.is seems to be picking up quite a bit at the moment and doesn't censor your posts or position them as to popularity, which means that anything that you post will be seen by all your subscribers, instead of just some of them. (Basically what I'm trying to say is, Facebook are a bunch of scumbags and I'm trying to move away from their site so that they know less about my life, whilst simultaneously keeping up-to-date with all the awesomeness this site brings. ;) )
