Hundreds of New Puzzles

This year-end update has something for everyone. Here's what you can expect:

• 400+ new puzzle images, covering a wide variety of subjects and styles, and all created by human photographers and artists. For easy access, most of these new puzzles are separated out into their own categories, such as "Animals II", "Buildings II", etc. You can see all of the new additions by selecting New from the Show dropdown on the Start a Puzzle page.
• Going forward, two new puzzles will be added each week, and will be completely free to play for a limited time.
• On the Friends page, there is now a Prior Puzzle Partners section, where it's easy to invite the people you played your previous puzzle with, to your new puzzle.
• Custom puzzles can now be generated tall or wide, as well as square.
• An "Ai" icon is now shown on all puzzles that are AI generated.
• Under Settings, there is now an option to hide all AI generated puzzles.
• The escape key can now be used to close the chat window or the sort window, to turn off selection mode, and to deselect any selected pieces.
• AI puzzle generation takes less time than before.
• Increased the quality of AI generated puzzles that are available through the Search function.
• When an invitation is received to join a puzzle, you can now join directly from the notification.
• When dragging out a box to select pieces, the screen will no longer scroll when you get near the edge.
• On the My Puzzles and Open Puzzles pages, an icon is now shown for puzzles that have auto-sorting turned on.
• When playing a puzzle solo, you're no longer asked to confirm auto-sorting of pieces.
• The Chat entry box now has focus when the chat window is opened.

(Note that voice chat in this version is incompatible with previous versions. So if you and your friends are not able to hear each other, make sure you've all updated to the new version.)

Many of these improvements started with suggestions from players, so keep those ideas coming.
Happy puzzling!
