Just a quick heads up. Any URL to a map on ..::LvL will now allow you to see a small preview of that map.

For example,
..::LvL Q3A - 20 Years - lvlworld.com/review/id:2401
Wicked (cpm1a) - lvlworld.com/media/id:701
Mustaine Madness - lvlworld.com/comments/id:2

When you move your mouse over the links above you should see the preview.

NOTE: You will not see the "map peak" info on a preview of your post or comment, but you will once the post has been made.

Edit: Map "insert" has been added as well now, so you can make your comments easier to read.

I like this feature. It's a big time saver, at least on PC.

Following up on map peaking, is the new option to insert a map in to the comments by a search on the map name. For example, this next line was added by hitting the new Map option in the edit bar then searching for April:
Quake Shareware by id Software

The Map option is available for comments and forum posts. Please report any issues.

Amazing stuff!!! Great addition. Love the small preview. Makes a big difference. Thanks.
PD: suggestion: can forums become right-clickable? (to open thread in another tab, for instance).

@raspatan : Wow, that was an oversight about the lack of right mouse option for the forum threads. You can now right-click on the thread title or the last column. Thanks for the heads-up!
