Seriously! What is with this site!?
Thursday, March 11, 2010 by WebGizmos | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
First off...let me just say I love the hell out of this site!
Ok...having said that...what the hell is with this site? I have never seen a site with so may loading and code problems. Now I can't log off...I can't rate skins...the library bar can't be moved over to the left....again! I mean seriously...why can't this site run as smoothly as every other site I go to? It's like a crap shoot almost ever day...it either loads or it doesn't. Some days I can't even get passed the front page.
I would think that a site that sells software would want these issues ironed out once and for all...I know I sure as hell would or someone would get fired.
Ok there...I said it. Now fire away! Just let me get out of the way first.

uploads arent working properly either, on this site or the beta, i keep getting a red x instead of a thumbnail (i know ive already made a post about this but putting it here probably helps others too if they have the same issue)

Ain't that the truth! 
P.S. The new site is crap as far as I am concerned. Hard to navigate/find anything.

Rose-coloured glasses, guys. I can recall older permutations of the site being considerably more buggy/flawed, whether it's the WC site itself or the forums.... they have almost always had an issue or two at one time or another.
I also remember 'sister' sites in the skinning world....ones that suffered 'total' database loss and expired permanently, and others that went offline for months with a site redesign and rebirth.
Personally I'd rather a few bugs...

Hey, we could all just piss off and then there would be no need to fix anything!

Some of this stuff must be area specific, browser specific, or PC specific. Sure, I get some of these problems, but I don't find it anywhere near as bad as all that.
Funny how some things work for some people, but not for everyone.
I can't remember the last time I had an upload error.
All my skins are always there.
My stats and counts are there, but don't really mean squat anyway....
I seldom, if ever, get double posts.
Now I do get those annoying ads a lot. And lately I've seen a few video ads that speak!! EGAD!!!
Sure, the site is down some, and slow as hell sometimes, but this thread reads as if the site is just barely running and I don't see that.
Now, the new site sucks IMHO and I wish we could just stay here and fix this one.

For the beta site loads ok....it's just a pain in the ass getting to anything. And the libraries are sorely limited in what you can find. I hope the hell they add a "Next" button to move through the site.
