Re: Let me know...

Hello all and JJ. I think it would be a great idea to have a login name, and a display name. As you see right now my name is Seria17hri11er. I just wanted to use that as a login, not as my actual display name. I would prefer to display my actual name. And of course, I could have used my real name as my login, but what happends when there are several people with the same name? You get Nickmathews231932. A bit silly I think. Another thing, the picture galleries. I don't care for them very much. I think it would be a great Idea if you could open a new page that would show all the pictures of someones gallery, while still keeping the option of a slide show. I wrote some lengthy descriptions for some of my pictures but you can barely read a sentence of it. The pictures are real small too, cant we have them bigger? I tried looking at all the profiles today and I would guess that about 50% of people have there profiles set to private. I would hope that you guys would encourage people to be a little more open. Thanks for the great mag and site! -Nick

Oh, a good thing for the forums would be to add the option to be notified by email when someone replies to a thread you are watching.

OK. The photo galleries have been updated and, hopefully, will be much more user friendly. As for user names, I debated about that and can see your point. From a programming standpoint, each user needs a unique identification. Some sites use the email while some use the user name. I decided on unique user names. What happens if we have 40 Johns on the site? It makes it very hard to find the correct one. How about if we add a field for your real name? Then people have the option of using it or not. I feel that people should have the option of not using their real name if they so choose. Some of us don't want to be on all of the search engines while others may want that.
