Hey everyone, we pushed a few updates live over the last day.

First off, the option to create contributor giveaways is now available to everyone. Head over to the create a giveaway page, and you'll see a new input box for contributor only. Simply enter an amount, and only users that have successfully sent that value or greater to other users in the community will be able to enter. The maximum amount you can enter is twice your own contributions. For example, if you have contributed $25.00, you can create contributor giveaways between $0.01 - $50.00. The option is disabled for users that have not contributed in the past. This option can be combined with both private and group giveaways as well. Keep in mind, group giveaways look at contributions in general, not for that particular group only.

Next, the display of giveaways has slightly changed. For example, take a look at lokonopa's profile. Contributor giveaways list the amount necessary on the right side. It'll be displayed in green if you can enter, or red if you cannot. Also, group and private giveaways are coloured. Once again, take another look at lokonopa's profile, this time, the won page. You can easily see private and group giveaways highlighted. These same display options are used on the homepage and general giveaway listings.

Give us the filter to not show Contributors' giveaways. If we can't apply there why it should bother us?

Consider it encouragement to not go eight months with only eight comments and zero giveaways. If it works on even one person, it did its job.
