new browser rant

Fri Jul 11, 2008, 7:40 PM
okay this new browser is kinda weird. but i guess its okay.
i guess you are probably reading this in the new browser in the community messages thingy on your account, so i will need to make this journal long SO YOU CAN GO OUT OF YOUR WAY TO READ IT!

anywhom, i dont like the browser specifically because of the fact that a lot of people just used to see things and fave them without commenting on them.(popular artists hate it, i've heard it been called the"fave and run" technique. I know, i've done it i'm ashamed of it :depressed:) then DA introduced the collect option, not fixing the fave and run problem, BUT MAKING IT WORSE! because of this "ingenius invention" people didnt even have to get of their lazy asses and click on the link to fave it, all they had to do was to drag it to their favorites. now i'm all for the folders you can categorize your favorites with, but i think that you should have to visit that person's deviation to then collect or fave it or whatever. (i'm not sure if someone gets a pageview if their work is collected, so correct me if i'm wrong) but wouldn't it be weird if someone had a deviation with 31 views and 400 favorites! now with deviantart's new browser you can see deviations and journals and stuff, right in your community message thing!

well, which is actually pretty cool and all ^^; but.....


it still doesnt solve the fave and run problem.
it makes it worse.

this is actually pretty awesome for me because it lets me be lazier BUT THATS NOT THE POINT!




its about time i wrote a really long journal >:3

i KNOW, i HATE this new browser! its so annoying in so many ways, i miss the old days when i could just open up deviations to see any and all recent deviations that my friends have made, and open them up to take a nice look at them, but now i cant open up that, but i can only see 3 unless i want to go out of my way to see the rest of the deviations my friends have made, often making me almost FORGET that i HAVENT seen a bunch of deviations. (i have similar arguments for most of the other stuff on messages) :movingon:

...NOW!
i had a lot of other things to complain about too but i decided that you people had heard enough.

i agree with you completely and maybe if we complain enough, DA will give us an optoin to change back.

:cheese:Yeah... its cheese:cheese:
yeah dude it could things faster
but it's to hard to see any of people i watch's new work
because now for every page it's like 10 deviations and its f-ing slow!!!!!, back then it was alot and it was always nice and fun to think, "oh i wonder if i'll like it" and click and see the work and artist comments
so yeh i'm not likeing it too XD
