Skin Fix

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:13:14 -0700

If our default skin was glitchy to you before, that problem has been fixed! You can now view our default skin in it's full glory if you have older browser versions. But you are still welcome to choose your favorite of the skins through your account settings. Enjoy!

Change for the World

Fri, 07 Nov 2008 18:07:14 -0700

I never post anything here unless it has direct correlation with IceCaves.net, but this is HUGE.
Elections for the next president of the United States closed Tuesday night, Nov 4. Traffic in New York City stopped as the people cheered. The people of Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington D.C took to the streets to cheer. Kenya, Italy, China, Germany. Around the world, people cheered, clapped, hugged, cried, gathered, and celebrated. The United States has chosen a new President and a new direction.
The world welcomes President-elect Barack Obama.

--------------------------------------------

To celebrate, I have removed the requirement of 200 unique visits on affiliate applications! If you wished to become to an affiliate before and this prevented you from being accepted, then now is your chance! We will now affiliate with basically any website that still complies to our other requirements.
