And back with more news! This time, finally some good news again! So, there were problems with custom backgrounds hosted from Photobucket not working on some browsers. The issue likely isn't gonna fix anytime soon, so I've been working on moving over my custom backgrounds to a new host, imgur. But not only that, there's also a whole NEW collection of Custom Backgrounds available for use, ranging from grassland to outer space! Now making it 10 Custom Backgrounds hosted on imgur so far. Check out the list here!

More good news, as a bonus, all of the Super Mario Flash 1 default backgrounds are also available for use as custom backgrounds. Check it out here!

There's even more good news, SMF2 Custom Background Collection #2 will also be releasing at the end of the month, with 10 all-new custom backgrounds! Stay tuned!

Since there are issues with Custom Backgrounds going on, and that some games aren't loading properly sometimes, I decided to make a current issues page, where you can see all the current technical issues related to the site or the games that you should keep in mind! If you found a technical problem, let me know and I will update the page! I will also be looking into the issues and fix them when I can, and trying to keep the list as empty as possible! The page can be found on the forums anytime, under News & Announcements. If you are experiencing any problems, be sure to check this page first! If you are experiencing problems that aren't on the list, the problem may be on your end. Check out the help section for more info and possible solutions.

Some of you may have noticed that my Custom Backgrounds designed for my SMF2 games don't work on some browsers anymore. Don't worry, the problem is not on your end! The host of these backgrounds, Photobucket, has changed the way pictures hosted from their website are displayed on other sites, which caused the SMF2 Custom Background feature not being able to load Photobucket images. Don't worry, you can still use pictures from (supported) other sites, for example imgur. I am going to work on moving all of my backgrounds to another host, and they should be available again shortly! (You will have to update your background in the level code). I will keep you all updated on this news page about the Custom Background issues. In the meantime, you can use another browser, like Chrome.

Standard backgrounds from the games themselves are unaffected by this issue.

Super Mario Flash 2: Jungle Edition was one of my SMF2 editions, themed about the Jungle. It was fully finished last year, but it never got released due to PG's inactivity. However, now the community is active again, I decided to release it to the public so people can check it out! History lesson over, here's what Jungle Edition's all about:

-Create levels in the in-build 9 enviroments:

• Jungle/Forest (Day)
  
• Crystal Cave
  
• Poisonous Forest
  
• Temple
• Jungle Beach
• Ocean
• Dungeon
  
• Volcano
• Jungle/Forest (Night)
  

-More enviroments can be added through the Custom Background feature.

There are also lots of tilesets to work with, including: Jungle, Beach, Snow, Beehive, Temple/Dungeon tilesets, Tree, Pipes, Atlantic & Volcano tilesets, including the tilesets that fit with multiple themes, such as Water/Poison, Harbor, Stone tiles and of course, blocks. Enough reading, check the game out here! 

The news section is now live, check back every once in a while for new news! If you're wondering what kind of news you can expect to see here, it'll be mostly SMF announcements (updates, new releases, etc.), changes to the website and other other announcements related to this site & its games. There will be some other kind of news then just this too, so if you're a news + SMF fanatic, this is the place for you! Since this section just launched, there may be some issues, if you came across any, let me know in the comments or on Level Palace.
