Flipbooks
Ever wanted to make little animations with your pawprints? Introducing Flipbooks! This new system lets you put together draft pawprints, change the timing/speed, and create animations. You can try this out with the new flipbook button on the sidebar, below the journal button. You will need draft pawprints to use (the 'draft' checkbox in pawprint settings or when drawing something) but I may later increase this to work with any of your pawprints, I want to see if it'd cause spam.
At the start this will only allow up to 16 frames (you can use the same image more than one time, if you wanted a reverse effect) but I may increase this later if needed. Flipbooks will use all the tags combined of each pawprint used, a bit like how pawzzle tags work, and the rating will always be at minimum the highest rated pawprint used - so you can't rate it general/SFW if there's an NSFW pawprint in one of the frames.
- Added the Flipbook system.
- Added a Flipbook tab on the homepage, next to Pawprints.
- Added a Flipbook collection on profiles, to see all flipbooks created by a user.
- Allowed tag/rating editing.
- Added an 'onion skin' selector next to where the parent selector is when drawing pawprints. This will set the background of the canvas to a slightly transparent version of whichever pawprint you select, good for animating.
Other Fixes:
- Fixed default collection not loading on profiles.
- Fixed the bulk pawprint selection.
- XP calculation has been optimised a ton so it's 10 seconds faster to run.
- Text-only pawprints no longer show up on the homepage or count for XP, to stop spam.
- Added new badge conditions so I can make badges for more things.
- Fixed notifications for comments in flipbooks.
- Fixed templates not copying.

Manual Draft Saving
After some recent issues I've made a decision - drafts will no longer be automatically saved. Instead, much like a drawing program, there is a save and load button. The save button will flash when you're able to save (to stop people from just spam saving the same thing), and this will save a draft like before.
If you were wondering why the site was slow before, the auto saving drafts accounted for most of it as some bots/rogue individuals decided to exploit it to almost crash the entire site. This solves many issues (such as drafts not saving correctly/at the right time) and lightens the load on the site quite a bit.

Polls!
I've added a poll system to journals, meaning you can now hold polls alongside them :3 it's not fully tested, so things may go wrong.
To help test, what is the best?

Marks Gifting/Tracking
If you click the marks count in the top right (the lil' heart) there's a new page for gifting marks to other users. You can also see a new transaction history with marks - ones coming in and going out, with a new option in the privacy section of your settings page to make them all anonymous in others transaction histories.
In addition: marks are now permanent. You cannot unmark a pawprint once it is marked, to stop any issues occurring where you give away all your marks and then someone unmarks and leaves you in the negatives.
