A few other features that have been added:
- user profiles are changed - new look and a few new features including that they are more 'social' (displaying of 'friends' etc) - you can also leave public messages on each other's profiles.
- you can also now style your profile - changing colors etc
- tags - you can now 'tag' a thread which can be useful. When you click the 'tag' (at the bottom of each thread) you are taken to a list of threads with that same tag. Not much to see at this point but it'll be useful the more we tag stuff
- social groups - not sure how we'll use these but you can start social groups from your profile page - you can see one I created for portrait photography
HERE
- bookmarking - you can now bookmark/submit a thread to Digg, StumbleUpon, Delicious or Google at the bottom of each thread (there are some icons we need to fix on that section but it works)
PLEASE NOTE - we're learning about these features as admins too and reserve the right to modify them and even to switch some of them of if they are abused.
There are a few bugs we're aware of:
- urls/links are not underlined or styled any more. We'll get this fixed
- there are a few icons/buttons missing around the place - they now appear as text. Again, we're on it
- tags as listed in category areas are too big and make the titles look confusing
There are other new features too - some that we'll need to play with as admins before we decide if we'll keep them all!
