Things I wish FA had...
8 years ago
1. DELETE comments you make, not hide them.
Sometimes I mess up and reply to a comment in the wrong place. Then youre stuck with a big obnoxious "Hidden by author" tab. If its your own comment you should be able to remove it.
2. EDIT COMMENTS
Please, I make typos or maybe want to change info in a comment, but instead have to delete it and type it out again :<
(update: couple ppl told me there's a quick time period for editing comments, which is cool! But relies on you quickly noticing typos)
3. Search note function
Search for a keyword or user in your inbox.
If youre someone dealing with a lot of notes, things can get lost easily.
4. Unreplied note function
Same as above, if you're dealing with a lot of notes things can get lost or you forget to reply to something.
5. Image support on homepage
FA profiles tend to be very wordy and bland, even restricted image use (like max. image dimensions or image count) would be quite nice to have some more professional/sleek looking profiles.
I know ppl get away with making obnoxious pics with html and icons anyway, so why not :x
6. Mass delete notifications
Instead of having to delete comments, favs, journals, etc seperately, let us check em and delete them in one click.
Another thing that would be cool is some sort of art showcase or "popular" section or something. It's quite hard to get your art noticed here, just have to hope people see it in the few seconds it has on the front page...
I know dA has groups and "popular" and "undiscovered" functions and those are all very good for discovering new artists and getting more exposure, so something similar, albeit more simplistic, would be very exciting to see here.
Or maybe even make use of FA's tagging system (Tagging art by species, gender, etc) Could be cool to browse those tags.
Yeah just a couple nit picks tbh,
I love FA but it can be feel a little clunky sometimes.
What do you guys think?

I do agree with a lot of your other points though, especially the one about better art showcasing tabs and such like DA. Would make life so much easier, and not have to rely on shear luck for people to notice your art in the few seconds -to maybe minutes- it's on the front page! XD
Cool thing for the typos, still a bit awkward if you need to edit it after longer periods of time.
Like for auction bids and other stuff that's organised in comment chains ;o;
Ty for the info!
