What's new on Lavish Made
The latest updates and new features, newest first.
This week we're giving you more control over your content and more ways to make it beautiful. Plus, Summerween is still brewing if you want to get weird with it.
New post layout options
Your posts can now be more than just text and images. We've added layout options that let you control how your content flows and feels.
Choose from different arrangements that highlight your photos, create visual stories, or just make your posts feel more intentional. Because the way something looks affects how it lands.
Delete your posts and blog posts
Sometimes you want to take something down. Now you can delete your posts and blog posts whenever you need to.
We believe you should have full control over your own content. Post with confidence knowing you can always change your mind later.
Summerween still haunting
Our Summerween Contest runs until September 22, with $250 going to the most atmospheric entry. We're seeing some genuinely unsettling creativity already.
Post anything eerie, strange, or beautifully haunted and tag it #summerween. Winner announced September 27.

Mobile experience, totally redesigned
We've overhauled the mobile layout with a cleaner header, bottom navigation, and touch-friendly creation tools. Lavish now feels smooth and intuitive anywhere you go.
The new Moments view
Want to scroll without distraction? The new Moments section gives you a focused, minimal view of the latest posts, perfect for catching up on what your friends are sharing.
Rich embeds in comments
You can now embed YouTube videos, Spotify tracks, and other links directly in your comments. They auto-preview, so conversations are richer and clearer.
No more "click this link to see what I mean." Comments now speak for themselves.
This week we've focused on refining the experience: quietly smoothing out the rough edges, tightening up how things feel, and making the platform more comfortable and expressive to use.
Unified feed (optional)
If you've enabled Single Stream View in your profile settings, you'll now see a View All link bringing all your posts, blogs, and deep dives together into one flowing feed. Simple, chronological, and fully yours.
Prefer tabs? Toggle between Tabbed View and Single Stream View anytime from your profile's Display Preferences.
A better Deep Dive, now in your pocket
We've improved how deep dives feel on mobile. Whether you're exploring long-form posts or scrolling through photos, it should now feel smoother and more natural wherever you are.
Smarter, simpler image uploads
Gentle improvements to how images are uploaded and previewed, so things just work. Clearer feedback when something's off, faster handling when everything's good to go.
Cleaner post editing
We've simplified the edit screen: only tags and mentions appear now, with embeds and media staying neatly in the preview. Editing should feel more focused and less cluttered.
Smoother messaging
Typing indicators, real-time updates, and better auto-scrolling now make conversations feel more present. Messaging feels like a real exchange, not a delayed one.
Faster image loading
We've quietly upgraded the way Lavish Made handles image delivery behind the scenes. Your content loads faster now without compressing the creative soul out of it.
We've been busy making Lavish Made even better. Here are the latest updates.
Tag members in posts
Now you can tag your friends directly in your posts. Type @ followed by their username to mention them. Tagged members get notified and can easily find posts where they're mentioned.
"I Made This" page
Show off your creations with the #imadethis tag. Posts that use it appear on the dedicated "I Made This" page where the community can discover and celebrate your work.
Enhanced Deep Dives
Deep dives just got more visual. You can now upload photos directly to your deep dives instead of being limited to web links, for richer, more engaging collections.
