Trouble with WBW

Went away for a week and came back to a totally overhauled site! good work

not sure what it means, glitch, error on my side, whatever, but not seeing that i've ever posted in a forum OR uploaded any pictures. Am I missing something?

Also, site seems to load much slower than ever before

k. slow as sh!t is never good. take something that works and make it 10x slower with fewer search functions... i understand the all change is bad mentality. this change, so far, is bad. if you arent making it faster, clearer, and/or easier... you might be doing it wrong. 30 days before my sponsorship becomes rear view mirror.

Yeah, those are both on the Known Bug list: http://whatboyswant.com/forums/read/158809/Bug_Missing_features_Suggestions_thread.html

Welcome back! :-)

Yeah...they're all there, just the numbers aren't showing up for some reason.

Also...you may be missing some mod rights. Check the office for the thread to get them back.

how do you add in tags for this new version?

You can't. There is going to be a tagging team set up. Contact Omuh if you're interested.

its soooooo slow....

Archive pics load much more slowly than more recent pics. As one who likes to go back to the oldies - I really hope this isn't permanent.

Aware of this, is an issue with index that is used to generate these overview. Will look into it when I am back from my 3 day vacation (Haven't been on vacation for over a year so 3 days are welcome).

Do everything to get everything perfect, when things aren't the way they suppose to be I really feel bad about it.

Hope you are able to get ALL the glitches fixed. Wonderful site, but NOW, it loads slower and one cannot jump from one page to 10 or 15 pages further ahead.

Why does it take "slow-long" to download movies now? Why is the screen monitor blank until the movie appears. Movies for me no longer appear in my windows media player. If I an get this corrected I would be some what more content. If not I will ride along until my sponsorhip is expired. I liked the last site much better, with that said, I love change, as long as we are moving forward. I am now using the rear view mirror.

What does it mean when I get this message when trying to view a picture: Access is denied to this object

Sometimes I get that message, sometimes I get the picture. Is it a system problem or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

You're not the only one getting this so definitely something's wrong somewhere.

Hum, you can directly access any page with the "Goto" field.

I don't like the new format.

Care to say why ?
Because right now your comment isn't really helpful...

1) favorites...or watchlist...whatever it's called now displays favorites in random order
2) various search fucntions dont work. more than one not working is one more than enough.
3) tagging was great for those of us who earned credits that way. some of us--and i assume i may only be talking about myself now--dont feel right about posting pics/movies that we didnt produce ourselves. this was a great feature that also added to the ease of use of the site.
4) a new look cause that brings more money... change for the sake of change...sure. But the same old attitude is here. Maybe a little less of the "like it or leave" and a little more "How can we make this better" would bring more paying customers and help convince some of the free accounts to turn premium.

1) It's been reported and should be fixed
2) It's been reported and will definitely be added back
3) I know the tagging system change bothers a few peope (and you're not the only one). As I said before, I'll start recruiting for permanent taggers when everything is settled. I don't know if some reward is planned for them at the moment, that's something that we should discuss I guess. One thing I used to do to earn credit was report pics/movies (repost, pros etc.) but I'm not sure you earn credit for that anymore ? (it used to be 1 credit per correct report).
4) I really don't know what you're talking about. Diz-X (the dev of the site), is almost posting everyday on these forums to give answer and have already updated to site to add things people asked. Also, you should check the "Bug / missing feature etc." thread because it's full of "How can we make this better"...

I've never once heard anything like that from anyone. If anything it's the opposite. People had the chance to review the new site and comment, based on the response Diz got some features were removed. Once the new site went live, everyone started bitching that their favorite feature was scrapped. He's now spent the last 2 weeks working his ass off replacing features and making new features for those same members who didn't speak up originally.
