5. Other Improvements released in the past few weeks:

- Released the Gift Manager to send and accept gifts inside the game

- Capability to ask your friends to send you more of a specific gift by using the 'More' button in your Gift Manager -> My Gifts section

- The 'Preferences' section located in the Account tab was replaced by a new 'Profile' section. In addition to changing your avatar name and gender, now you can change your real first name, your email and your password.

- Most pictures inside the game should be showing correctly now

- Signup feature. New players without Facebook farms can use the green Signup button to create a new account in the Farmtown website. For players with Facebook farms that haven't registered in the new website, please send an email to support@slashkey.com , we will guide you through the process of registering in the new website and recovering access to your Facebook farms.

- Capability to buy Farm Cash, we currently accept payments via Paypal or Stripe, the 2 leading payment processors globally

- New 'Restore Purchases' button in the Bank screen

- When purchasing Farm Cash, if you have some kind of browser popup blocker installed, the Paypal or Stripe page to complete the payment may not open as expected. When this happens, you now have the option to retry your payment in the same browser tab where your game is running, this way the popup blockers will not interfere and the Paypal and Stripe pages will show up correctly. When you are done with your payment, you just need to reload the game and your Farm Cash will be automatically added to your account.

- When purchasing Farm Cash, if you complete your payment in Paypal or Stripe but there is an unexpected error in the game, computer or network that causes the purchase to not be automatically recognized, you just need to reload the game as usual, and your Farm Cash will be automatically added to your account.

6. The new Facilities will be released next month since we are still busy adding features to the new website.

Enjoy!

Post Release Updates - August 24th, 4:25PM

- Update your Farmtown picture with your Facebook profile picture. If your Facebook picture changed or if you have created a new Farmtown account, you can copy your current Facebook profile picture to your Farmtown game, just go to the Account tab and follow the 3 steps in the picture section at the bottom.

If you have multiple Facebook accounts, make sure you login to the account that have the picture you want to copy. If by any chance you end up copying a picture from the wrong Facebook account, just logout of Facebook, start the process again and login to the correct Facebook account.
