I've implemented the new cloud generation form that is much more (I hope) user friendly than the old one. So I hope it is easier to create clouds with Tagul now.

Sorry for not replying to you for long time but I'll appreciate if you be more concrete in your requests.
1) What does it mean your tag cloud isn't rotating? It isn't designed to be rotated. Do you mean your tags don't rotate?
2) What kind of error you see. Could you please send it to me?

When you set up the link pattern you should re-fetch your tags and re-build your cloud. To check whether everything is OK you can click on your cloud tags in the finalize tab.

You are right. Currently all words less than 4 letters are cut off.
You can use api mode then all your words will be shown.

JessirOx555,

currently only cloud, heart, star, triangle, pentagram, circle and rectangle shapes are available on Tagul web site.

Any custom shape can be done via API

I've checked your cloud and it seems ok. Please find the below code that works fine for me.

It looks like you didn't save your cloud or there is some mistake in your embedding code. Could you please send me the embedding code you use and I'll check it.

I doubt that any font used in Tagul contain Chinese characters. If you know some good free Chinese fonts please advise

Your xml is malformed. I've deleted redundant "</tags>" substrings. Here is the correct xml:

joranelias, there is a problem with clearing your browsers cache when your clouds are hosted on my partner's cdn (softlayer). I cannot control its cache headers. There is way to eliminate this problem by hosting cloud file and flash swf renderer yourself. Then you can control your cache headers. You can explore this example to see how to host and embed the cloud yourself.
