FA banners, FA comments, MFF
3 years ago
the new furaffinity is cool! i now have a cool banner. grinning face with big eyes emoji.
it is harder to reply to comments now. i used to click a comment and it would take me to the comment and highlight it! i could open ten comments in different tabs and pow pow pow reply to each of them. i can't do that anymore, because comments just take you to the submission so i have no idea what i clicked. downcast face with sweat emoji.
(p.s if anybody wants to meet up at MFF let me know! i will be looking for people to play games and hang with. bring a sketchbook and i will draw something in it!)

FA+

actually, for my personal uploading habits this is literally an upgrade! if you compare my newest yoshi upload to other uploads from a week or two ago, it's much larger
EDIT: Ah was there an actual highlight before, not only moving the scroll window down to the comment? I already forgot xD
Yeah hope they re-add that.
I'd still like 2FA, a working blacklist, functioning tags, the ability to block adverts when I'm not in the market, the ability to fix the incorrect romaji in my username by changing it, better image support and an actual, functioning block system.
But man those banners ARE pretty nice...
for about 25% of my submissions such as this one i just straight up skipped tagging certain things like "avian" and "rabbit" because i ran out of tag space. i do my best but i can only squeeze so many fetishes and characters in ~20 tags
it is much easier to make up features than to sit down and code them
Overall, pretty good update! Still felt a distinct revulsion upon seeing the new site, but that's just a me problem.
i stayed on the old FA design for about 2 years! but i finally bit the bullet and switched over, it's fine once i get used to it! i miss having little buttons for the FA-specific emotes though
(No, it's not meant to be taken at all seriously.)
yes, the URL takes you to the comment so a workaround I use is to shrink my window before clicking a link, so that only a few comments are visible. (By default I can see about 5-10 comments, so the fact that it is one of the comments onscreen does not really narrow things down)
