Next up for renovation - the profile page. Have some ideas you want to share?
I won't repeat what others are saying above, but I think several of those are great ideas.
I'd like to see the icon change after adding a friend, sort of like when you add someone's review to your favorites list. That way I can see very easily if I goofed and cut off someone I befriended, if you know what I mean.
I have really enjoyed seeing lots of pictures while reading some reviews. Would it be possible to have a little section that looks like a scrapbook or collage of pictures that we've put into our reviews? Perhaps someone looking at our profile page might say, wow--I would love to read the review about that...and click on the picture in the collage.
I think pictures draw a LOT of people in, so if you ever update the way reviews are shown, I think it would be cool to put one picture (if there are any in it) with the title of the review--people might be more likely to click on a review if they know they'll see some cool, crazy or colorful pictures!
Is there a place on the profile page where you can click if anyone has written a guide? That might be another way for people to access reviews that might not otherwise access them.
Love the new way we can update the "I am" tags (thanks to whoever did that)--perhaps we could have "facts about me" that we could choose from to display in the same way. Maybe even open a discussion for ideas for "facts about me" choices. Some people on this site are really quite funny and have some fresh ideas--bet you'd get some stuff you could use.
This one's just a minor one, but the area just above the reviews where it says something like "50 out of 50 reviews" is not on the little white box--it's off to the side when I view it from my computer. I have IE, if that's any help.
Maybe reviewers might have a few favorite reviews they have written that they think others would particularly like. You know--their best work, their passion, etc. If we had a way to pick 10 reviews (and update that 10 if we write a better one!) and call them something like "writer's choice reviews," I think that would be nice to have that as an option to view. I like the way people can choose most helpful, ratings, most recent, etc.
Some people take a lot of pictures. Do you think we could add more pictures to scroll through in the photo corner?
I'm not sure I understand what "subscribe to reviews" means. Maybe to add a description of what that is, perhaps by toggling over that or clicking those words.
Maybe add a tab at the top for "discussion board" and "look up a writer" because I never think to click to the right for discussions. I usually go to community and then discussion. People who are new to the site may be more likely to go to a discussion board rather than clicking on community. People who are new to the site may also be more likely to look up another writer if they see that there's a tab at the top.
Overall, I think you guys have done a fantastic job including all sorts of cool things on the profile page. It's easy to navigate and I appreciate all the hard work that goes into all of your efforts. Keep up the GREAT work!
