Suggestions for Site improvements, from the Users standpoint

1) How about having the site show our purchased products when we have that button UN-checked.

2) Allow the Users choice to be permanently remembered by the site as to whether or not the purchased items are shown.

3) Have a new checkbox, for "Show ONLY purchased items", as that can be VERY handy for the User. Especially since there is no way to search by vendor in the Users Product Library.

Thank you for 7 hours of absolutely useless searching under "ALL" in the Stores main page.

    I remember you from the Frazetta contest way back when! I'd hoped you were still floating around! :) Nice to see you here again!

    And has been mentioned in other threads, there is a checkbox for "Show only PC+", but would be nice if there was one for "Show only NON-PC+"

    Would like better categories and sorting in the galleries. I would prefer to chose what types of image I see, and it seems all lumped together so I just see whatever gets posted most recently.

    Would like the thread notification to get fixed. Sometimes I get notified of an email, other times not.

    Yeah! Way cool! I remember you too! I have some good memories of those days. I was living in Houston then and hurricane Ike blew through right at the end of that contest. We lost our electricity for a couple weeks, I couldn't see who the winners were. That was a lot of fun, would like to see another similar one! Contest, not hurricane!!! :)

    One improvement I'd like to see is here in the forums. Please let clicking links open them in a new tab. Practically every other forum, email, Facebook and whatever makes use of this function, surely it can't be that hard to implement that here can it!? You get so used to being able to do it that having to remember to use crtl click here always seems so alien.

    CHEERS!

    Put in a feature request:

    I guess I could, but, it's such a simple one that you'd think someone would have already.

    CHEERS!

    Tech support and QA do not look in the forums most of the time. They have their own system to track feature requests and bug but if we dont file them then they dont get tracked.

    Well... the more people put in a request, the higher the topic gets up in the "CS will place it with those who are able to do somehting about it", rather than "Geez, one person is asking that, the rest doth not and is therefore comfortable with the handling.".

    Right. Uh huh. OK. A further show that this site, store, THING is now way too huge to be useful. Reminds me of Hellraiser. When the ol Doc finally gets to Leviathan. But he was dead, I have a LITTLE life left yet. I'll spend it elsewhere.

    I am not positive about this, but isn't the 'click' ing on links a control thing with our browsers? Seems I have seen that in Firefox Options somewhere.

    Not that I could see no, most click behaviour is written into the site code as far as I can tell. I'm sure it's not that hard to do.

    CHEERS!

    True, click behaviour can be affected by site code; but don't most browsers give you an easy way to open a link in a new tab, like middle-mouse-button, or command-click?

  • RogerbeeRogerbee Posts: 4,460

    Yes, they do, but, in the vast majority of the ones I use it is done automatically and I don't see why these forums can't. I'm sure you could do it in the old forums.

    I always use right click on a link, gives me an "Open in new tab" option, and other options as well.

    Ctrl click is quicker. Remembering to do it sometimes isn't.

    Middle mouse button is even quicker.
    The problem is, this is based on personal preference. Many people may be just as annoyed that new pages automatically open in a new tab. I know I often am, as then I have to close that tab that I was finished with. That is why it is preferable, to me, to leave the action up to the user's clicking behavior rather than have it forced upon you by the site code.
