Wincustomize Beta Feedback
Monday, December 28, 2009 by karmat | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
Nice to see the new website! Looking good, but I hope since it's a beta that suggestions will be considered... 1) Could you make the link "Submit Beta Feedback' in the top left corner of the homepage link to something other than the Forum homepage - maybe to a sticky post. 2) Can the amount of skins showing on one page in a gallery be larger than 18? Way too much clicking! Minimum could be at least 20, with choices of 50 and 100 (please!!!). 3) I noticed the feature of a description popup when you hover over a thumbnail is no longer there. Could that be brought back, otherwise you have to click and go to the page to find out more details? 4) To see a larger preview opens another tab like before. I thought I read it would be something like the way DA or Customize.org does a preview? 5) When someone provides links in their description accompanying their upload, on the old website it would show up with an icon and 'link'. Now the whole link is shown. Can it be changed to the shorter version? 6) I didn't see the 'Subscriber Resources' listed anywhere. I really like the larger thumbnails! So, please don't jump all over me, these are suggestions and comments, NOT COMPLAINTS! All in all, I appreciate the amount of time and talent it takes to revamp a site and hope that it can be tweaked to everybody's satisfaction. <br>
Update.....
The new site is not officially beta yet, so it appears I've jumped the gun with my suggestions. <br>
Feel free to use this post to mention what you'd like to see for the new site, or anything else for that matter.

Little harder on the eyes since it's lighter than the current site, but looks nice.

Which version, the current site or the beta?

Current by a long shot! The beta is to crowded!

How so? You mean the skins list, or the skin full preview itself?

Can't open it with IE7 but it works with Firefox. Looks good to me so far.

I did notice the top skinners all time/yesterday/last 30 days is all mixed up...
True (I thought that but didn't write it because of the same inherent contradiction in what followed)....
And WG is right....visually, it's crowded. The image sizes are large. The light background is also a bit irritating...toning down the white would help.

dang, all I saw was a blank white page. but as a suggestion before committing yourselves to making something new you could work on documenting some of your existing programs. JTOL

Someone who would create documentation, and someone who would work on the new WC website would be completely different. I agree more documentation is needed in the WC Wiki, however, the Wiki is for the community to contribute as well, and not many are taking it up.

I like it. The previews are great. WIll wait to see what more is done with the personal pages. I also just realized my sub has expired so I don't get to see it without the ads and stuff.
