It's that time of year again - where we update CB and add loads of new features! CB4 will be the biggest update yet in our history! Since there'll be tons of changes around here, I thought I might let you guys know beforehand. =)

There's too many new features and improvements that I'll have them prepared when we launch CB4. For now, here's some previews. CB4 will go live in the next couple of days!

As you might have noticed, we're adding subdomain support for CB, where every member will get their own username.createblog.com subdomain with a profile, blog, and photos page. This means that your username must be alpha-numeric (and dash) to conform to the URI standards. If your username contain characters that are invalid, go here and change your username. You can only change your username once, so please consider carefully before choosing your new username.

Well, that's it for now! =)

....subdomains!

This is exciting! :D
The previews look awesome. I love the feel of it.

Aw, Jusun, we miss you!

I think the whole subdomain thing is cool!

wow this is great.
i like itt. and the idea of geting to change your username. :D

Wow, it definitely looks like one of the best. The look and feel is totally modern and organized...Subdomains are an excellent idea!

oh wow. this looks great! So is the arcade coming back?

Shweeeeeeeet. Love the subdomain idea.
And the new layout looks really clean.

.. LOL. The first graphic in this picture is my ugly avatar!
Okay, time out. I just realized someone else submitted it.

^ hey, the submissions you see in the previews are for developmental purposes, not the real content. i tried uploading one of your animated avatars to see if support for animated avatars worked.

Too freakin' cool!

I'm excited!!

Hey Jusun, mind listing what special characters are allowed?

I love everything about this. I cannot wait. I guess this means I need to change my username.

sorry i completely forgot about it. heres the list: a-z0-9-_.!~*'(). i updated the first post.

i wanted to see what the forums would look like, but this is a big change and i like it, but it's not so much my taste. you are however nothing short of a genius.

arcade? night time skin?

the forums will look similar to the rest of the site. acarde and night time skin will follow shortly after the initial launch. would you have any suggestions on improving the user interface?

Yay!

What if I.. like my username and don't want to change it but still want a subdomain?

Hey You (to Jusun)

Glad to see you announcing it then I know it has to be close

it's nothing that really needs to be fixed, just adjusting, i guess.

This is gonna be super awesome! I can't wait!!!

Woah, everything looks great! Hehe... there's a myspace div category now!

Ooh that looks good. I'm excited to see it.

Goodbye suddenly she.
and hello... pixiedust! ?

Woahh it looks great!

Can I keep my username though?

Hey, micron we need to talk.

Yes, you can.

Only ones that need to be changed are the ones with spaces.

o0o this is exciting =]

Wait .. is my current username "themarkster" or "The Markster"?

wait. what about periods at the front?

Subdomains?! I'm so stoked.

Ah, this is so awesome.
it looks so awesome.
And subdomains? Niiice.
if only my username was something better, LOL
I'm excited

^ Well right now you've been given the opportunity's to change it, only one time though so be sincere with your choice!

wow! it looks amazing, i would miss the one we have now, but i really do look forward to the new on.
Subdomains and a real profile, thats nice.

Oh wow. It looks really different, but I like the new feel of it.
Exciting.

Yea, I think it goes either way Yan

which sucks, I've always liked periods at the end of my user names.

Mine is changed... I assume there is still no character limit on usernames?

I have my reasons for not wanting it to be simply "falsetigerlimbs"

=/

Anyway I agree, this is very exciting! :D

YES! For the subdomains. Ha, you've got me all excited now.

Mm, I noticed some grammatical errors on the front page's preview... In case you'd like to fix them, it's supposed to be "community-driven" and "one-stop blog resource website."
*Slinks her grammar Nazi self away now*

CHYEAAA CB4!!!! So excited, and can't hideeee ittt.

I don't care too much about people having the same bogus as I do anymore. My aol username is "suddenly she" and one of my friends thought it was a cool idea and made a new one that said "suddenly shih", haha. Shih is both of our last names.

I guess I wouldn't be too bothered? Who knows

Can the current and previous moderators continue to keep their subdomains on cbstaff.com?

im excited!

^I do exact same thing lol! I almost missed the bus this morning because I checking createblog to see if cB4 was up yet.

Ahah, same! I'm so friggen` excited for it.

I can't wait for this, ah it's happenning so soon. This'll be my first change of cb. woo hoo i'm excited the previews look so cool.

I'm getting excited already. The design looks awesome! I can't wait.

oh poooo.

I like my username with spaces :(

Swear to God, I dreamed I came onto cb and cb4 was up... what a looooooooooooooser.

I had that same dream, Elba.

I did the exact same thing the night before last!
Wheeeeeee. I can't wait. Is there a specific date for the new version to be released? or?

I'm now tempted to go on to cB every morning before school to check...

Can we change our usernames even if we have A-Z? Please??? I have never changed my screenname before.
