Blog Changes + Dragon Drop WIKI!

If you have ever been on this blog, then you may have noticed some of the recent changes made. If you haven't, then Welcome! 

Here is a quick recap of the site changes.

Site Header- We have inserted our new signature into the header position. Hopefully this looks more classy than before.

New Font- We have chosen a new font for all that is written on this blog. 

We would appreciate feedback on these changes.

Dragon Drop Wiki- You can check out our wiki located here.We have begun working on many pages that will help you learn about our project. Any Suggestions are appreciated. 

Sincerely,

Social medias

We now have set up 4 social medias for DragonDrop with (maybe) more to come!
The team working at DragonDrop have now created four social medias for sharing updates on the development. The four are YouTube, Instagram, Twitter and Google+. Today I have pictures of all four social medias set up with links underneath!

We NEED Backend Coders!

Hey guys! Thank you ALL for your support to get Dragon Drop started :). It is much appreciated!

The one thing that surprised us most, is that when we rolled applications for Dragon Drop out we got so many amazing applications to help with Dragon Drop! We loved this, because we knew we would be able to get it done pretty fast because we had so much help :). But after looking at how many awesome people were on the list, we noticed one job that there weren't enough Scratchers for. This job was the Backend Coder job.

Although we only have slightly more people doing the other jobs (QA's, frontend coders, translators, designers, etc.), the backend is a project that takes many more people to complete. Without backend coders, the editor wouldn't work!

That is why we are reaching out for your help! Although we have closed up applications for many of the other jobs, we need AT LEAST five backend coders to have the site out on time, and currently only have two. If you get accepted as a backend coder, you will now get a shoutout on the HOMEPAGE (and the credits page) for a month, AND you will get a follow from both golden-scratch and I on Scratch. You will also get a follow from me on Github :)

So what are you waiting for? All you need is a couple accounts, coding knowledge, and a bit of time!

Help us turn a dream into a site :)

Thank you,

QnA for our FAQ!

We want to see what you have to say!
So, we're trying to create our FAQ page on the website, however we need some legitimate questions asked by people. So we decided that we will make a blog post on a QnA. You go ahead and comment any question about DragonDrop you have in mind and either me or Coke11 on Scratch will answer it for you. You'll get credited in the source code if your question seems like one people would likely ask now and then!

Thanks for all the support you guys have given us along the way, we're amazed by the amount of blog views we've gained so far!

Teaser sneak peek!

Take a sneak peek of the website in it's progress!
Hello there, I am happy to inform you that we have a great sneak peak of the front-end website on your way! Our front-end (and back-end) developers, designers & QA's have worked so so hard on making DragonDrop what it is in such little time. Your probably getting bored of reading this, so here are the screenshots! 2 for today, more later.

This isn't all of the homepage. We have more in the works and I can't wait to show you! All the text will get improved over time!

This is the team currently when this post was posted. Please ignore the extra navbar in the middle of the screen, That isn't actually there, it's my website page screenshotter, it takes the navbar twice...

That's it for now!
