What do you want fixed on WinCustomize?
Monday, November 16, 2015 by T-Man | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hi All,
For those of you who do not know me, I'm a developer here at Stardock. Actually one of the original developers of WinCustomize.com.
As you have seen, WinCustomize has not had many updates recently. So, I'm looking to try and clean things up a little bit here. Starting out by fixing a few things. So, I'm asking you, what issues on WinCustomize have really been bugging you that you would like to have fixed?

That's another thing that could use fixing.
I could be wrong, but I don't think that is a bug. I believe it's the nature of a hyperlink.

Just letting you know that I have not forgotten about this thread. The updates I will be doing will be on my own time, so they probably will not be timely. Its taking me more effort to get motivated than I had anticipated, so I haven't done much yet. I do appreciate all the fix-it suggestions.
But, I did managed to do a small tweak to the searching. You should be able to search on multiple terms now. Its not much but is a very small step forward and I will continue to tweak this over time.

Thanks for the update.

Have a look at this page: https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/all/pagesize/350/view/list/author/2of3
I have said this before, the Author column is totally useless. I know who the author of the skins are because it's a page for my skins! Instead I would like to see that column dedicated to skin type (WB, rainy, wallpaper etc). While you're fixing this section you could add the feature to click on the column headers to sort them according to size, comments most to less etc.

P. S. The word IS spelled correctly but the usage was incorrect. Spellchecker doesn't help with context.

OK, major request here. How about adding the ability to upload screenshots directly into forum posts and skin comments. This would be EXTREMELY beneficial for the site, as other graphics related sites have that ability.

I agree 100%. There is no good reason that I can think of for not having an image button for uploading a photo from our computers, heck even small sites like varagesale that I am a member of has that option.

are you talking about varagesale.com? that site is a lot bigger than wincustomize.com.
but yeah, anybody can use phpBB and have a working forum.
Really? I did not know that seeing how it was started here in Canada only a couple years ago. In fact I never even heard of it until a friend told me about it a few months ago.

sure is. compare: https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=wincustomize%2C%20varagesale&date=today%2012-m&cmpt=q&tz=Etc%2FGMT-1
also compare their website, mobile apps, etc. with here. here maintance is done by one guy on his own time and according to himself, it's taking him a lot of effort to get motivated. (i can fully understand that, i would want to get paid for this job)

So here is a question for Skin Authors. What would be a good feature/fix that you would like to see that would be beneficial to you, as an Author, on WinCustomize?

That's odd. When I rate a skin I see it right away.
