Yeah okay I agree with you...many new features added in this new layout, but you have to agree it's not a perfect one.If so, please tell me how to send someone a buddy request and how can I search a topic here bcuz I have to google my stories every time when I need to open it or search for a new fan fiction. Members only and No copy are dysfunction and now all the stories are public.Originally posted by: Loving2Missing2
So IF is now available in total new Avatar! Vijay and his Dev team have achieved a great feat!
Most of the data is intact in migration. Just imagine, the link between user id and DP getting corrupted. Such DB mishaps have not happened. Your face has remained your face!
There are so many new features. Facebook or twitter don't allow you to save drafts, the New IF Now Does!
You get all your notifications same as facebook or twitter. So you know who hit like on your post.
Your messages are shown in notification and can be directly accessed from there!
All your Idols have been updated with latest pics. I checked Barun with Advay photo. (Smiley!) You check your idol!
You can copy links of the posts to embed anywhere else. Also posts can be directly shared on facebook or twitter.
In each thread, topic info is available at a glance. One can see thread starter's post as well as your posts separately.
You can mark any thread as watch the topic. It's like star marking your mail in Gmail.There's endless list. But let me now return to main topic.
I hugely appreciate the EIQ (Emotional IQ) of Vijay and his team. They must be finding themselves on hotplates at the moment, fixing bugs one after the other. And the way users are bashing against Vijay and team, God Help! I genuinely appreciate his patience, when I come across a few comments!
I admire Vijay's guts and his honesty that he opens a personal thread for people to post and convey the issues they are facing. Users should be thankful that a channel is available. Gmail/Facebook/Twitter give you just a mechanised DB message.
Whoever designed the User Interface, hats off! You guys are really thinking about what you are putting there. I saw Thugs of Hindustaan, (the great Amitabh and Aamir looks), then I saw Mogambo Khush Hua Look and I bolted up when I saw Gabbar! That man created a legend, he remains immortal in our hearts. So whoever got this idea in IF team, Congrats people!
Any change brings friction. When my hubby bought me latest smartphone, it was new, it was faster, it was better but I wasn't habituated to it. So I fretted for my old smartphone. The whole thing just needs time! We need time to get habituated to New IF Now and they need time to fix all bugs. Everybody is going to come round, like how I now love my new smartphone(smile)
Cheers!
