You will need to verify your email when you login, but once in take a look around and let me know what you think. There are a few bugs across the site, images aren't loading in some areas, but it's all being worked on - just came across a bug in the editor actually. Curious why and what's new?

Look Mom, I'm on TV! :D

Anyway, the site lost some contrast in the redesign, like every redesign of anything lately. Lost some color too. Now it's all black and white icons, foreground and background colors are more and more similar, and so on. It looks good on screenshots, but functionally it feels like a step back.

On an unrelated note, I just noticed that I can't scroll the notifications/bell window. It is full of notifications about this thread (because I can't unsubscribe from it :) ) and it can't be scrolled, or cleared.

Also, I don't know what I did but this just happened:

Just FYI - select quote has been implemented.

Also addressed this:

Typing the asterisk (like one would do when saying 8*8=64) more than once in a post causes them to disappear and the text between the two positions (or from the first on ?) to jump to italics.

And other items.

Something has got to be done about the page load speeds. It looks like it must be doing some complex stuff on the server-side rendering, because I'm getting 5-10 second lags navigating from page to page, to pull down about 18 kb of HTML.

Can confirm the page load "speed". Going back and forth between pages in this thread takes several seconds each.

I keep getting logged out, even though I check the Remember Me flag. Not using Google Sign In.

There doesn't seem to be a way to report an account while looking at their profile, only possible to report e.g. a post they make?

Hello to all my stalkers.

All my image folders are now in something called 'Portfolios', but I don't seem to be able to edit any of them to add new screenshots etc.

If I click the 'edit' button, top right, it just does nothing.

I believe this is fixed.

That content menu was misleading on the Portfolio page, so I've updated it. The place to modify the Portfolios would be in your Dashboard under the Portfolios menu. It's pretty straightforward from there. Each "Portfolio" you create can be considered a folder in the old Gallery, and you can make as many of those as you'd like. Let me know if you run into any issues.
