The Templated Competition

Our latest competition on the site is to make the best site templates of November. Contestants are asked to submit a site template file by the end of October (so you have a little more than a week to get in there!) and then during November we'll see whose files sell the best. There are lots of prizes up for grabs:

• Apple 8 GB iPod Touch - worth $300
• Belkin F5D8232-4 N1 Vision 4-Port Wireless Router - worth $180
• Halo 3 - worth $60 each
• A temporary 10% increase in FlashDen earnings during the month of December

FlashDen Support .. Back Online

During September and early October we regretfully had a series of issues with the FlashDen support system which resulted in us losing quite a number of queries and some of our valued customers not getting the help they needed.

We've now switched to a new system which for the last two weeks has been working out really well. With Jun at the helm and Bobocel, Collis and Ryan answering tickets as well, the support system is now moving along well.

If you had a support request which didn't get answered, please send in a new one and we'll make sure everything gets answered. Sorry about the problems and we regret any inconvenience it may have caused.

Site Updates

As FlashDen has been growing faster and faster, we've been working hard to keep up. Both traffic and sales have been hitting new records and the growth looks to not be slowing down.

FlashDen is currently hiring new developers to boost the team. But in the meantime Ryan has been working with freelancers and running fixes and improvements across the site. You will notice small features popping up like Daily Stats for Authors and Documentation Quality Rating on Files, but also a lot of work is being done on the internals of the site as we brace for even more growth.
