[quote who="Bebi Bulma" reply="182" id="2524865"][Request] Regarding the Articles section, will we have the option to view all articles (instead of just featured ones) like we have now?[/quote] hmmm well I just looked over at current WinCustomize and I think the "Newest Articles" section is really just the forums in a different format (same info as the recent posts on the new site, If you hover over the forums link on the main page I just added the top 10 new posts in t

All so true, I've only been here a couple months and I must say its the most amazing place to work. Never would have imagined being eager to stay at work for a 12 hour day...
I finished the feature I was talking about in another post... if you are a subscriber you should now have a customize option in the explore menu. This will allow users to pick which libraries they want showing up on in their personal menu. This is saved on an account level so once you change it it will be that way any time you login until you change it again. Again this is for subscribers only so I made a video for those who aren't subscribers but would lik
[quote who="PurrBall" reply="180" id="2524494"]Awesome, wallpapers is back but the menu doesn't seem to be sorted by name any more.[/quote] unfortunately the alphabetizing was a necessary loss (for the time being at least) in order to add the new sweet feature people have been clamoring for :) It's possible I could get it back in there, however, I'm trying to make this stuff run as quickly as possible and that would add some more computing. anyways I
the way skins work now when uploaded are that the previews don't show up until a batch job runs... so if you JUST upload a skin there may be like 10 min - 30 min before the preview shows up (will be greyed until then). If its still not showing up after that usually something messed up on our end, in which case I get on the guy who made the batch job :D
[quote who="PurrBall" reply="169" id="2523116"]Is it me, or is it no longer possible to get to the wallpapers gallery?[/quote] oopsie, my bad... I'm working on something sweet and accidentally broke that in the process :) note there are different (more) things in the menu now and the names have changed.
update: changed the search drop down menu and quick sort drop down menu to now be click toggles instead of hover menus... no more jumpy hovering!

[quote who="SirBedwyr" reply="24" id="2519004"]Thanks for the responses. Let me return in kind. I'll just have to disagree on that point. The context for searching anything in that location is "Whole Site". That it also functions as "Refine Search" is just as jarring. Every assumption from every other website I've used is that if the search location is at the periphery of the site, it functions solely as a search for site-wide stuff. Analogy
