These upgrades come from your suggestions, as well as fixes to some of the bugs we have all found on the site since it went live.

Here's a list of the some of the changes that went live this morning:

- Reinstated the ability for users to add polls to FanPosts

- Fixed issue with Shift-A keyboard shortcut for comments not working properly in large threads

- Fixed issue with logos that break out of the circle getting cropped

- Fixed issue where new comment count was incorrect on FanShots posted from another site

- Fixed issue with filters not working on FanShot index page

- Fixed Facebook login issues

The tech is already back at work on the next set of updates for the site, with a lot more of them focused around the recommendations coming from the readers of the sites all around the SB Nation network. When they send out that next update, I will let you know what they have changed in that as well.
