    Gone are the days of needing 25 posts and an account for 10 days before you could share links and images in a post.

    We're trialing a lowered restriction for new users, which means just 5 posts and an account that's 24 hours old are required to be able to share the latest cute, funny, etc. pic that you've stumbled across. And it's the same for links, which means new users can get involved in the Bargain Alerts competition much quicker than they would have been able to previously.

    This is an experiment and something that we'll be keeping an eye on. If it works well, we'll continue with it, but we can adjust or roll it back if required.

    How can I? User's guide to some features on the new site

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
