New Profile *Beta* - Changes I'd like to see

Journal Entry: Thu Jan 1, 2009, 11:12 PM



Suggestions



These are some things I would like to see added/changed about the recent profile pages. I'd first like to say that they ROCK. They definitely make the dA experience more personal. And I also love finding an excuse to spend hours here. :P Seriously, love it.

I would like to hear your opinion on the following list as well as an additional comments on what YOU would like to see! Here goes...

  • Being able to pick exactly which deviations to display under the "gallery" widget.


  • Being able to pick which folder the "favourites" widget's feed comes out of.


  • Ability to "x" or "delete" a comment and not just hiding it (and taking up space.) Or at least have the hidden part not seen by other uses.


  • Ability to combine some widgets into a master widget. Such as the "Contact" + "webcam" + "dA ID" all combined into one widget, but editable separately for user.


  • Adding a "Custom" widget like in Journals, where you can feature whatever deviation OR text that you want to be seen.


  • Ability to resize "fullsize" featured deviations OR have the image resized fluidly and automatic. This is a big issue for me, because I usually resize my deviation with dA's resize option when I upload it.


  • "Edit this journal entry" option viewable only to the user. This is something I've BEEN asking for. I think it's even harder to edit my current journal now because I have to click around a few times before I get to the page. This link should be right beside "Comments | Previous Journal Entries | Edit this Entry".


  • Ability to "x" News articles so that you may pick and choose what you would like to display.


  • Add more links to "contact". Such as "Myspace" and "Facebook".


  • Give us more text room for our "favourites" (books, movies, music) already!!!


  • Ability to pick which watchers are displayed on my page by what folder I've put them into. Maybe I would only like to show my "family" on dA that watches me etc.


Your turn! :ahoy:

I'd like to see the wishlist have a randomize option like favorites does instead of always showing the most recent two adds. (unless I'm missing something).

It would also be handy to switch around the "deviant info" box layout. (what used to be up top with name, type of account, last login). The way it is now my "Deviant since" info kind runs into my gallery stats.

Of all of those, the one I'd like would be removing comments not just hiding them.

' "Edit this journal entry" option viewable only to the user. This is something I've BEEN asking for.

This link should be right beside "Comments | Previous Journal Entries | Edit this Entry".' I agree it usually takes me a bit before I can update an entry especially if I'm tired and out of it xD

another change I'd like to see (possibly) is so that module (I think that's what it's called) where you can see your chosen desktop screenshot on your front page is visible, 'cause while in beta mode and you haven't uploaded a screen shot you can't see it/use it if you haven't uploaded it before going into the beta testing... if all that makes sense :faint:

I agree with pretty much all your suggestions :#1:

And have no suggestions of my own cuz my brain is too small for such a thing.
