Gabriels message from before the update:

Ssup people!

We are in mid summer here in Buenos Aires and both dp and I are slowly 

roasting in the heat.

We
 are staying in the outskirts o fBuenos Aires, so for a change, i get to
 see some green grass and trees, and some nature, away from the concrete
 city of Bueno Aires.

Being here without city-like distractions has made this Kaya.gs first 

 summer camp, one we hope, of many.


We
 are 27hs away from the 0.5 release and with that release comes the 
change of Founder to Supporter. Founder accounts have not yet been 
designed but are very well documented in the server, and we have been 
thinking of what could we add to distinguish them. 

I liked the 
idea of a brick icon next to the nickname, as founders is asimilar 
concept to a builder. We are very flexible on this idea so its the best 
moment to suggest, as a Founder, how would you like to be showing in the
 server.

Palapiku said that a 72pt flashing banner was expected, but i'm afraid 

 that would be a bit too invasive.

The
 best places to add something are user lists and profiles. With your 
suggestions bare in mind though, that people that aren't founders 
shouldnt feel secluded or left out.
 
Also 0.5 will have the first easter egg. We added something special that 

 we hope those that find it will cutely enjoy :)

We
 are extremely happy with our work, and we have a really good pacing. 
Each week brings a whole new set of features and functionality, along 
with a great number of tweaks and fixes. I must say that the Tweaki is a
 great invention at the same time it is our doom :).

Stay tuned 
guys! and give an opinion for how you would like your founder accounts 
to show in the server, its your recognition, your brand!
