Another 4th Anniversary Enhancement!

While it may be hard to believe, those little images you see in your Closet, Trade Windows, under your Signature and other places, have now grown to be over 9 MB of data! This gives you some idea of how many items we have available now for buying, trading, sending as gifts and more!

Back when we started, this image collection was of course quite small, however at a hefty 9 MB+, which is downloaded when you enter VFK, it can slow down start up. But not to worry, we have an enhancement and a feature to address the growth of the image library over the last 4 years!

The enhancement makes it possible for only those small images that you need to see at any one time to be downloaded on demand. This means that when logging in you will load faster and you will see the images populate as needed in real time.

As an added bonus this means you will not have to refresh to see the images when new items are released.

For anyone who would still prefer to download the entire image library at the beginning, there is a new feature under "Menu > Options" you will find as "Load common icons on start up". Just check this and you will have the classic bulk image loading system.

This new enhancement and feature will be available tonight after server maintenance!
