Gallery Widget V2, Upload Widget V3.0.3 - Release Notes - Jan 3, 2013
The gallery and uploader widgets work great as standalone products, but together they are a tightly integrated UGC solution.
The latest release of this dynamic duo improves producer usability and portability.
For the producer, we've reduced the effort required to re-deploy a widget. A widget can be re-assigned to a specific campaign by changing a couple simple parameters in the embed code.
In order to achieve a balance between revenue and user experience, we've rebuilt the navigation to load within the widget (not a page refresh) while adding the ability to refresh advertising on the host page.
Other stuff:
Uploader

- If the uploader is being used with a companion gallery, the user is redirected back to the gallery after uploading
