Two Backroom Dashboard Improvements

Members you've subscribed to are now listed in alphabetical order in the backroom. This makes hopping from portfolio to portfolio that much easier.

In addition--and this is a much bigger update--you'll start to see a category news feed for all categories you've subscribed to. So if you subscribed to our Naruto category, every time a new Naruto fan work is added, it gets beamed into your backroom. This is a great feature especially for those less often-updated categories, since staying on top of them is difficult.

The category news feed addition is still in beta so comment here if you run into any problems or issues with it; or if you have any suggestions for how to make it better.
