Additional site/forum suggestions
Monday, March 5, 2007 by Bebi Bulma | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
At Fuzzy's prompting, I have a few other suggestions. I've posted a couple of them in the other threads (bugs/issues) but seeing as how they're neither, they tend to get lost and I figured a different thread would be easier.
1. Improvement for the system-wide quote system: adding author/time+date/reply number information (I believe links to specific replies is in development). Basically, clicking on the Quote link will pull in the text of the post as well as who originally posted it, when, and a link to the individual reply.
2. Email notification when a new comment is made on our personal guestbooks.
3. Adding a Report Skin for Violation link for skin submissions, as well as adding the Report option to skin comments (like what was implemented here on the forums). Should cut down on the drama that is created in the forums and keep things privately dealt with through proper email channels.
4. Automagically turn posted url's into clickable links. Maybe I'm just lazy, but it's annoying having to copy the url and paste it into a new tab address bar to view whatever it is because the poster is either too lazy to make it clickable or just doesn't know how (can't blame them, the insert url function is quite borked). It does this in the skin description section and I believe it used to do it here on the old version of the forums, I'm not sure why it doesn't anymore. If there is a reason I don't recall what it is.
Uhm that's all I can think of right now.

Blah blah quoted text and stuff. Now we'll know what all the quoting is in reference to, yay!

For andrew when you have time for it (mentioned it on IRC):
Photo album tweaks:
1. Being able to sort the images in the albums/albums themselves.
2. Album list view: display number of images in each album and the date for the newest added.
3. Image list view: display number of views in description.
4. Ability to add comments to images.
Other:
1. Add the avatar to the first post in a thread. I don't go by username so much, noticing the avatar is easier.
2. State the username when someone emails us from the forums. Right now it's anyone's guess who is actually sending the message (unless they specifically mention it themselves), personally I'd like to know exactly who it is.
Something like:
Message from (username):
Hi...wanted to know blah blah and so on.
3. In response to #12, how about the same for Find posts by this user? As well as Skin comments. I can't even figure out how to see *all* the comments I've personally made on skins, only the recent ones. Would be nice if we could do this for other users as well, since we can find all posts from a user from the forums by clicking on their name (but that requires finding one in the first place).
