Meh. I don't really... MIND. Some of the new features are fine, and I like the new additions.
I'm just waiting for them to make this site more compatible with users that view larger thumbnails.
And personally, I still think the edges are a little too rounded and bubbly and somesuch for my liking. Otherwise though, no big objections. It'll just take a while to get used to, is all.
Like the fav'd pic gallery and whatnot, though. Spiffy. _________________ [url=http://www.fanart-central.net/user-Trinity_Fire.php][img]http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e326/MomentaryEternity/sig3.jpg[/img][/url][url=http://www.fanart-central.net/user_stories-Trinity_Fire.php][img]http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e326/MomentaryEternity/sig2.jpg[/img][/url] |

The icons on the browse categories page don't load till the rollover link is clicked, and the other icons will not load at all.
Also, I was thinking we should at a background color or something to that sort to the filters area, when they are toggled.
As for getting the old site layout ghost I haven't seen it yet.
Any details on where you where when you seen it? |

As I stated earlier:
I'm pretty sure faved stories always appeared....(I got over fan fiction a while ago, so I haven't had any faved)
Anyway...I object to the whole fan's avatars being displayed on my user lookup.
My instantanious reaction was due to the fact that someone has the most blatiently pornographic picture for their avvie I've seen in a long while. I think I'll go figure out how to report them....
other than that, I see my profile as a place for art, not for my fan's avatars which are usually not even their art...just some googled pics. (No offence most of you guys) I see no relevance in having those displayed.
On a similar note, if these things are going to be displayed, or if the people I am fans of's avatars are going to be displayed (which I am a little more OK with because I respect those people, and have control over who I fav as an artist, once again, not that I disrespect my fans) they should be closer together so they:
a) look more neat
b) we can differentiate them from the art below
c) More can fit!
what does everyone else think? |

Mod'd.
Denis, you need to add a permission that controls whether a user's avvie (or profile info) gets displayed or not.
It's far more effective for dealing with minor offenses than banning. _________________ Strata here: [url=http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/242293]Nanowrimo[/url] - [url=www.fanart-central.net/user-Stratadrake.php]FAC[/url] - [url=http://stratadrake.deviantart.com]dA[/url] - [url=www.furaffinity.net/user/Stratadrake/]FA[/url]

The point to that is to save load time.
and as for your post above, you make a good point. Although I could seriously care less if there are or aren't pics, as long as I know which user I'm getting to (Since the majority of the users here can't seem to stay with one for very long...) its all fine. How ever, I do agree with you about the pornographic Avatar bit.
Thats a good call for a panel that can sort that out.
Edit:
Just noticed this,
In the browse categories page the BBcode used to change the text in the Java hover descriptions is not working, its just being displayed as text.
Also, i think some of the descriptions are missing from the script.

Ahh, yo comprendo ahora.
Anyway, I know I initially loved the displaying the avatars idea, but its location right next to the art isn't so great.
It would even be nicer if it were on the right side, where fans favs used to be listed. At least then it's seperated from the big chunk of the art that lives down at the bottom of the profiles. |

I don't know about another location. putting them at the side of the page like they used to be may be a bit of a hassle, seeing as the space limits the display of it. |

It's already limited to five across, you can't get much smaller than that. Five vertically would easily fit. |

I don't like the whole voting thing.
What's the "social bookmark picture" do? _________________ 222.

Social book marking is just that.
Its adding that picture to outside search. In this case de.lis.ious (However that's spelled ) or digg.
Basically if you think the pic is really good and think others would really like it, then you add it. This also helps the sites traffic and funding by increasing the odds that one of the ad-links will be followed or clicked.
It may also be cool for other users to see there art in a search from one of the sites there. Could start a little trend.
(Not to be mean, but add only the art that actually is really good please. Try to put a good name out for FAC on the web. ) |

I couldn't agree more!
And, may I ask: won't this promote more internet-wide art theft?
How do our copyrights stay in tact with this feature? |

(Not to sound arrogant, but you don't have to worry about my art giving FAC a rep for poor art. )
I'm still not clear on the bookmarking. ^^; Sorry. So, let's say I click the Social Bookmark on one of my pictures. It will appear on the front pages of those . . . are they search engine sites? I went to digg.com . . . but I cant figure out what this site is. Will my art appear there under Most Recent News and Videos? And then someone sees it and will click it and it'll take 'em to the picture on this site? _________________ 222.

@Blade:
Denis is working on a licensing feature for the site here. Similar to the one on DA. but as far as art here goes its automatically copyright to you, if you feel insecure about it then you just need to mark your art with a small signature or something. Usually put in an inconspicuous place that would be hard to clone over.
@Papercut_Dragon:
Yes, I'm not completely sure about digg, since I've never mucked with it.
But thats just what del.icio.us does. Of course its for more that just pics. its a collective bookmark store of all kinds of stuff that people think is just cool or helpful to someone.
So say you find a really cool bleach fanart picture here and book mark it to del.icio.us, and some one just happens to be looking for bleach artwork, that will turn up. |

Oh, I definately know about watermarking. I hate to do it, basically, the next person to steal my art ruins it for everyone. >.>
I need to stop signing things in elvish...oh well.
Anyway, shouldn't it be an option that the creater can choose, whether or not to allow this social bookmarking? People might not want their art all over the internet.
Maybe, when someone submits a picture, there could be an option, in check box form, which they can choose. It would say "allow Social Bookmarking" or something to that effect. |

Bleach, huh? Well I got plenty o' that to put out there. XD Maybe I'll watermark a few images and bookmark 'em for the site.
Blade, it's not automatic. There's a button above your art that you click and then it bookmarks it. ^_^ _________________ 222.

All this talk gets me wonder about another update.
So Denis, what if some one doesn't want their pictures to be bookmarked? |
