The New Picture Browser - Feedback
-
I'll admit I was startled at the the pics view at first, but I quickly found out that the search page was still pretty much the same so I certainly wan't annoyed. In fact, I've come to like this newer view and the roll-overs are very helpful. One thing I could see some getting annoyed about is the load time for the pics, but I've got a relatively older machine (it started life as a Vista machine), yet it handles the loading process reasonably well. No complaints there, really. But I could easily see someone still running XP and finding it slow. Still, everyone gets used to one thing and change is loathed. Hey! Look at how much I loathed Vista! Well, of course, I was right on that one, but even so, it had some things that I learned to love: the breadcrumbs trail at the top of Windows Explorer (which, hopefully, MS is finally calling their file manager – jeeze, even people at MS had problems figuring out if you were talking about WE or IE) and the Windows Photo Viewer (which for some insane [oh, let's just blame Ballmer] was dumbed down for 7).
I'll stop babbling now….

i am new to the site ,but i love the picture browser. it allows easy access.
-
Too much going on ???
soooooo slow :cry2: -
I love the picture browser. Great idea. I much prefer it to wading through lists of names, especially when all I'm doing is hovering over each one to look at the pictures.
Please keep it!

It is just another OPTION!! and I love it! I Like how I can still click only the categories I want display….
THANKS!! Only one Suggestion I have always wanted .. Because of bandwidth .. I do not want to see 6gb torrents, cuz I could never get them anyway... It would be awesome if we could set a couple size limits to show. Like, ANY, or <6gb <3gb <1gb >500mb etc!!
Great Job.. Keep the app UP!! Nice Programming!!!! Always like to see ne things!! :cheesy2:

I think its neat, but it does take a while to load up all the thumbnails

When you hover over pictures or even move around, I think the Black info box comes up way to fast and sorta ruins the experience.
You should think about turning that down a bit.. (delay) like ??maybe 2-3 seconds after the mouse has stopped on a pic before the info box pops up.Looking KEWL!!!

In the Picture browser category box, It is nice that , In my case, all 12 of my favorite categories are automatically checked.
But could you add a Clear button? E.G, sometimes I just want to look at 1 category, But I have to UNCHECK the 11 others.. ThanksWell, I did notice that if you just double click the "NAME" of one catagory the rest will clear. But many might not know that.. Just a thought..

:afr: I realize that only know as you pointed the double click function on a category name. As moderator, usually I've no category selected, means all.
"Clear all" and "Select all" like added on the search should be more intuitive.

Don't get me wrong it's very nice feature, but …
its remind me of Windows 8 Metro UI
p.s.
i would add some bars :
red downloaded torrent
green completed file
-
@mirko69: i do not know windows 8 yet.. i jumped to osx in 2008 :cheesy2:
so many cool ideas - can't wait to find some time to implement some of those.
I was talking to popper already about colored borders arround those pics for torrent seperatioin: eg: white border, next torrent grey border, than again white border and so on.
thx to you we also change the colors for downloaded torrent AND completed (snatched) :crazy2:
Also i do not forget those other ideas posted earlier. I gonna get back to you guys soon (with an update) !

The new picture browser is an interesting option. I'm glad the search feature is still available. I know that many guys base their downloads mainly by the photos, but I like to see the stats - file size, comments, and description - at the same time as the photos. I :love: gaytorrent!

I tried the new picture browser again today, and I see there have been some slight changes (since the last time I used it) that made it more comfortable; in particular, the pop-up of the title and description seems to work better now, and makes it much better for looking over what's new than it was when I first tried it.
I have a number of new comments.
(1) when people create a new torrent, it would be nice if you provided some mechanism whereby they can exercise more precise control over which of several images will be used to illustrate the torrent as a pop-up in new picture browser, and which will be used to illustrate the torrent on the older search page. At the moment, as far as I can make out, the first image to be uploaded to a new torrent announcement is the one used as a popup on the old search page, and the last image to be uploaded appears in the new picture-browse and on the page of the torrent itself (before you expand or leaf through the other images). I think you should allow the uploader to select his exemplary figures for these two purposes.
(2) I think that, as a result of this change, something about the "comments" popups on the old search page was damaged. I used to get a popup of user comments when I selected the comments link on the search page. Now, I get an hourglass and nothing happens. Very occasionally, if I then move my mouse cursor, I get the briefest view of a popup which should have appeared, which vanishes again before anything can be read. I imagine that this will behave differently in different browsers, but that's a sign that something isn't as it should be. Something got broken along the way, here.
(3) I still think you should add a control to the main page of a torrent that allows that torrent to be added to the "wish list"–this feature is only available at the moment on the old search page, and so users who prefer to use the new picture-browser have no way to mark a torrent for their wish list except to go back to the old search and choose the wish-list control there.

In brief:
(1) Something going beyond that proposal is in preparation
(2) That is noticed and reported by many users and will be fixed ASAP
(3) That made it already to the long "to-do list"
