Topic: Anti-Actualization Groups

ATTENTION ANTI-ACTUALIZATION GROUPS  

How do I make my voice count?
In an effort to hear what our users have to say about the new hi5 design, structure, new items, and services we will be gathering data and feedback until Nov. 15th. We have assigned one single group to gather this information. If you know of any groups or users that want to express their opinions and suggestions, please send them to the following group:

  No More Updates For Groups At Hi5

This group was created for users against changes in the groups design and structure but we will be accepting comments for the new interface in general.

The interface worx, but is not so nice,
the fonts are very big, and menu bar is allso big,

I like the links inside it, but I miss the users own link bar to their groups etc, you have it in a own frame, but manytimes that frames is not shown up

the avatars, I am not always happy or angry or sad,
why not put in feeling normal. a neutral avatar.

I have seen some odd code and text where pictures and commersials suppose to be (google chrome browser)

In peoples picture albums, its very easy to click on, show profile below the links to albums, took me 10 minutes to find the right show me user profile for the album owner.

but I like it, pfeels a bit faster now.

Thanks :) your opinion is very important to us - that's why we're asking for your feedback. I like the interface too - the links are somehow changing for me from one size to another and from bold to regular...not sure what's causing this.

The groups link is in the submenu of your "My Profile" link. Google Chrome and IE have included code to replace ads in their browsers to replace any advertising with their own. Not in every case it happens but sine Chrome is still in beta and even though it is faster I prefer FireFox. Perhaps h5 needs to change the name of their ads so it won't affect it's revenue generated from ads so it can continue being a free service.

On your last phrase I'm trying to follow you if you're asking to include a "Link to the galleries" under the profile picture...then, there is a link that says "View All XXXX Photos" We have some requests that suggest this link should be a bottom because it would be easier to spot.

I'll send Siko or Olivia to post on this too.

Thanks, Marko.

hi Marko,
Request for neutral avatar mood noted, thanks.

On the browser issues:
hi5 doesn't officially support Chrome yet - not enough people are using this beta browser, so any browser-specific errors with Chrome are not likely to be addressed yet.

However, if you've got screenshots of weird code replacing ads in IE (with standard settings, not with ad blockers turned on, as we can't solve for all custom settings), we'd love to see them so we can investigate further. Thanks :-)

Thx,
I got this link from kathy and another idea,
some few days to gathering data is not so much,

why not give it a month or 2 ?

Google chrome is stable and the most secure borwser right now. I guess it will be used more in future.
But I understand, Major use IE and some Firefox.

I just want to post what I saw, and next time I will try to capture it and post the the result.

I post a screen shot over the links
I have marked them with a red circle.

Dont know if it just me, but I was a bit confused first timne I want to return to a profile page after I visited the photoalbums. Its always taking time to learn to navigate in new envirometns, so it will solve itself in time.



another odd thing happpend to me today, at this time i used Firefox and I posted a big picture to a group. in the past you had limits to 500pixel wide image, if it was wider than that scroll bars was shown up, but not this time.

and the menu bar,
when you are on others profiles then links to

'Flirt' 'Favorites' 'Find Friends'

are shown up, why not put in users group inside that menue ?

(when people ask me for friendship, then I look on their page to see what groups they are member in before I add them)

Hi Marko,
We are working on something to make it easier to find a person's groups when viewing their profile.

As for collecting feedback on the new version - we have been doing this for about 3 months now, actually (first with a private group of randomly selected users invited to test, then with larger self-selected groups as we've expanded the pool of people with the beta site). Always interested in hearing what you've got to say, but as you've probably noticed we're doing less with this particular group lately...the Help groups are probably a better central place to post your thoughts going forward...

Thanks again for your feedback, Marko!
