[*StanleyThePanda*]

Yes, please!

[*AngelicEyz00*]

Woo.

And I know there's like 50 birthdays each day, but maybe we can filter it to show only the birthdays of people with at least x number of posts.

[*Mercy*]

Sounds great.

[gelionie]

I like this idea.
That way I don't have to look through fifty-something usernames for people that I know.

[xxlipglossxx]

How can I view only the graphics I have posted on this site?

Thnx.

[datass]

Thing is, you didnt submit anything, or they're not accepted yet.

[technicolour]

You're viewing it wrong? Or something..because..I can see all the graphics that have been accepted.

[technicolour]

Yesssss, I like this idea.

[z3nn1]

I like this idea, but even though people may have posted alot in the past (say a year ago) would still show up if they are no longer active?

[Rachel]

^I can't see them either...


To topic starter: You haven't activated your cBprofile page, if you do, then that will give you access to your submitted work.

[technicolour]

http://www.createblog.com/graphics/

Wait. Maybe I can see them because i'm staff?

[Rachel]

^Ya, I think that might be why. I forgot to add that to my original post.

[*karmakiller*]

If you go to your profile: http://xxlipglossxx.createblog.com/
Look under submissions.

[xxlipglossxx]

What type of codes would I use to set a background to my cB profile?

Thnx.

How to customize your profile.

[xxlipglossxx]

So I used this to add a background to my profile. Yet, somehow it's not showing up. I did everything the forum said.

Help?

Thnx.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

You could've just posted in your other topic. Instead of making a second one..

http://xxlipglossxx.createblog.com/
Your background shows up fine for me.

[*digitalfragrance*]

Yeah, I see it too... what browser are you using?

[Rachel]

^She just activated her profile, thats why it wasn't working before. We PMed and I think she gets it now.


Pretttty sure this can be closed.

[SortedDetails]

Mind adding something like...

'Mutt' or 'Other' under ethnicity?
Being that I'm Spanish and not Hispanic, mixed with Native American, and some unknown Caucasian race.. I fall under one of those.

I mean, sure... Hispanic is something used to class all Mexican-esque races into one group... But isn't that some sort of disrespect to heritage? Anyway, I'm not trying to start a debate or anything, but it would be nice to have one of the stated categories added.

If this is the wrong place to post, I'm sorry.

[SortedDetails]

Ah, good. Glad I for once posted in the right place! Yeah,I'm weird about ethnicities. >.> Especially when filling out a profile!

I'm probably weird in general.. I do hope something is added to the ethnicity list though!

Cheers!

[demolished]

Okay. I appreciate ALOT jusun lee for creating our profile pictures. The thing is that we are left with a drop down menu option, metro. Would it be better if it allow us to type in the username, alphabetical location, city, moderator photos, official member photos, members, staff, formal mod, or whatever you can think of? I'm just listing some ideas to get you an idea.

[demolished]

How about an extra module of our choice with coding such as links and images ? And, disable certain module?

I'm confused; what do pictures have to do with the search? If you're simply talking about searching for profiles based on those queries, then that would be cool. You can already do that for member groups (simply click on the link in someone's profile to see all other members within that member group).

[*AngelicEyz00*]

This is confusing.

[Rachel]

^Haha ya I agree. I was getting annoyed with all the topics, but now it's just like jumbled.

[*AngelicEyz00*]

At least edit the first post to include all the requests cause I'm not reading through all these posts.

[Rachel]

I dont even think some are requests, more like problems that people were having.

[freeflow]

I edited the first post with the requests. I think the birthday thing would be a good addition.

[Rachel]

I'm so glad your head staff now [/spam]

[*AngelicEyz00*]

^That would be cool.

[clarity]

Is it possible to have an option for all members to choose a font face, size and/or color to use as default when posting?

I'm all for this idea.

[*davinci*]

I like how Facebook allows you to see/read a continuous conversation of wall posts made between yourself and another user. Can we have that at CB if it's possible and isn't a hassle? With so many users, it's sometimes hard to keep track what exactly what you said to someone and you then have to hunt through his/her comments.

[loveylovely]

Different skins for the forums.

[Rachel]

^Ohh ya, I hope there's going to be a nighttime skin again.

this has been implemented. =)

keep the requests coming. when i have time ill work on more features one by one. =)

[wordupg]

I did some data mining and it seems that there are no places that have myspace blog templates. Is this something that will eventually catch on?

My 311 myspace blog template:



Code for 311 flash header:

CODE

<object enableJSURL="false" enableHREF="false" saveEmbedTags="true" allowScriptAccess="never" allownetworking="internal" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allownetworking="internal" height="229" width="415" data="http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h90/mparker18311/311.swf">
  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
  <param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
  <param name="movie" value="http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h90/mparker18311/311.swf" />
</object>

Sample of 311 blog

YAY! Thank you. :D

[Blaqheartedstar]

um...
layout comments to go back to being in a seperate page like in cb3
for categories in the blog section instead of having one categorie per entry we should have more then one
for example: in: rants, life, random

[shortcake]

Since this a forum for requests, I'm sure someone has brought this up but I haven't seen it yet; since we have layouts for bloggers and all why don't we make layouts for the CB Profiles? That'd be cool. Just an idea.

[*Azarel*]

That would take SO much effort.. some users only have accounts to access layouts more easily (by faving them and such). Also, there are over 177 thousand threads.. I think things are okay as is..

Anyway, could the topic at the top of feedback regarding the house cleaning be unpinned/deled/whatever should be done with it?

[*davinci*]

The house cleaning isn't finished considering everything had to be put on hold for CB4. It was mentioned that there are still uncleaned sections.

[*kryogenix*]

Can we get better mods?

[*Azarel*]

^ Who do you nominate?

The house cleaning isn't finished considering everything had to be put on hold during CB4.

Ooh, okay. I figured it was finished right as cB4 was put online. :x

[*kryogenix*]

Honestly?

Kurd Jam off the top of my head.

I'd rather have a bunch of the current mods fired though.

[*davinci*]

I do like reading his posts but he's hardly around anymore.

[*kryogenix*]

I don't blame him. It's funny how the people who want to be mods the most seem to be the least qualified.

[demolished]

oooh, i got a new idea! How about a list of visited users on your private profile page?

Nahhh, we already have the tracker.

[*Azarel*]

lol so ummm.. could we get a confirmation page on deleting comments or friends on profiles? I know a few people who have been accidentally removed from friends lists and I know I have a tendency to click the trash can because it's SO much cuter than "History" (I don't know why I do it) and I've deleted at least three comments on accident, which makes me sad.

[Jeng]

ARCADE

[lkajsfklajskds]

how about when u want to comment someone you can check out the recent comment(s) they left you without having to open up a new window to look at it. i always wanted that for myspace but didnt know where to go to recommend it.

[KissMe2408]

ARCADE

I second that

[clarity]

Oh I know, it would be cool if we had something like a "bulletin" feature but for cBSpace. :)

[Rachel]

^Ehh, there is a blog feature...I don't really see the need for bulletins, except to make it more like myspace, which I don't want to see at all.


PS, the daytime skin button is such a tease at the bottom!

[technicolour]

God, i'm sorry, but one can not possibly imagine how much I despise bulletins. All my friends do is post song lyrics. Or say to go look at my pictures. It gets SO old. And irritating.

The blog feature is pretty much enough. That'll allow people to write about whatever they wish.

[*Azarel*]

^ That's a moderator-only function.

[*Azarel*]

You can edit your topic titles and descriptions via full edit.

[*Azarel*]

Could we have it so that we can choose whether or not we want our age/location displayed on our profile pages? I just tried to leave my metro, and on the page it says that all fields are optional.. but when I try to remove them, it yells at me:

* Missing country ID
* Missing state ID
* Missing metro ID

[Relentless]

How about those people like to have those really nice profiles.

Like any other blog sites (myspace, blogger, xanga, LJ, etc.), we should have a createblog profile layout submitted section?

I dunno just a thought.

[YourSuperior]

^I asked Micron(Jusun) about it and he said he'll decide when he's done with cB4 and if he's going to change the domain name.

[*inspiration*]

* Missing state ID
* Missing metro ID

Additionally, on the board options, it won't let me submit an empty birthday, telling me:

The error returned was:
You entered an illegal date for your birthday. You may have chosen 30th February, for example.

Or:

The error returned was:
Either complete all the birthdate fields, or leave them all blank - we cannot process partial birthdates

I would like to opt not to submit. D: As of now, I've submitted a not-so-real date.

[micron]

there's now a confirmation popup before you delete comments. please keep the requests coming!

[technicolour]

Add separate subforums in Showcase. PLEASEEEE. It's so cluttered. It irks me.

[falsetigerlimbs]

Is there any way you could add a pop-up confirmation for the "Remove layout" button?

I just managed to accidentally delete one of my most popular layouts.

*cry*

Surely a confirmation for layout deletion is much more important than a confirmation for comment deletion?

:(

[BOOGERSHAHA]

another member asking for the arcade...

[MiraLiz]

Word.

[*davinci*]

Minor issue but can the comment box be placed above the last comment made when viewing a conversation History? It's annoying to scroll all the way up to read what was written. Pretty please? :D

[Simba]

Is there some way you could set image tags to automatically be removed when quoting? That would be a nice convenience for everybody, I reckon.

[*phoenixdown*]

arcade pwease!!

[*alovesopure*]

^ Yes, that would be awesome.

And maybe if we were able to delete our own comments on someone elses profile (in case of a double post, or just the desire to delete it).

[*MyMichelle*]

CB MOBILE PLZ

[*superstitious*]

If possible, being able to view member name change history (in view member stats maybe?). It would be nice, especially since folks will be able to change their usernames every six months.

[falsetigerlimbs]

Something I just noticed is that layouts are displayed on the front page in the order that they were submitted, not accepted.

My most recent layout was accepted after some of the ones on the home, but submitted before, so it's on the second page, even though it was only accepted earlier today. I think the layouts should be ordered by when they were accepted, because that's when they were made public. Is that possible?

[*davinci*]

Does the [Delete] button have to be next to the [Reply] button when reading a PM? I just accidentally deleted one. :(

[*MyMichelle*]

CB MOBILE!

[*alovesopure*]

I wish we could put HTML in our "about me" for the cB profiles. Like so I can put pictures of stuff.

[Simba]

Where'd advanced search go?

[Simba]

Oh, gotcha, thanks. =P

[Simba]

Are there notifications on blog comments too? I couldn't tell last time.

Maybe it'd be nice if blog comments and profile comments were differentiated.

[*brownsugar*]

There are..if you click "new comments" and keep scrolling down, it'll give you new profile comments, new blog comments and new graphics/layouts comments.

[Simba]

Oh ok, I guess I just never saw that then.

[gelionie]

Just a little request on the tracker v2...
A new day of track logs only appears after GMT time is past midnight...
but as I'm in GMT+8, it takes a couple of hours for me to get to see a new day of track logs.

Wonder if that could be amended?

[*Steven*]

I WISH SENT PMs WERE AUTOMATICALLY SAVED

Me too :)
