Two highly requested features that have been implemented

Hope this satisfies the masses!

Published on March 9, 2005 By Flyin In WinCustomize Talk

Hello all,

Well, if you haven't seen it yet, two features from the old wincustomize.com site have been implemented on the new site.

1. Changing your Honorific.
- When logged in, simply click the "My Account" tab on the top right corner and under the preferences section you will see
a "Change My Honorific" option. When you submit your change it tells you that your changes will take a few minutes to take affect, but they do happen instantly for the most part

2. Download Totals at the bottom of the MySkins.aspx page
- I know this one has been requested quite frequently and i'm just glad to get it everyone finally!
Under each section you should see two numbers, the first number is the totals for that particular page of skins you are viewing, and the number at the bottom is the totals overall. I chose to show both so you can select different sorting methods and see how a particular set of skins are doing. Hopefully you'll enjoy that feature.
A post has already been made about this feature at: Link So check that out as well!

Happy skinning!

Flyin

Timestamps on the forum posts would be MOST appreciated!

Agreed! And the ability to see if sticky threads have new posts!

Seems a shame to start a new thread, so I'll ride on this one. I've been wanting to change my nick. The only place I've seen that references this at the moment is:-

My Account > Account Information > Vital Stats > Nick Name

Would this be an appropriate place to try and register a change or is there another preferred method (either presently in existence or planned) ?

Feedback from anyone in the know appreciated.

Cheers Flyin

- I'll give it a go - my main concern was doing it this way may lead to duplication of somebody else's existing Nick.

Keep up the good work

Additional - I have now changed my Nick to 'Alternate Setting'. This seems to be recognised through most of my account - tho' not retrospectively on the Forums yet.

Test

Ok - seems to work for new posts

If it is possible - I'd appreciate it if you could you check that this name hasn't been adopted previously by another existing member ?

Cheers.

Thank you for the changes, great job.

now if all My Skins were on a single page (like they were on the old site), that would be wonderful

If I may one more suggestion, would it be possible when Displaying: ALL libraries to implement the sorting: "by library" of My Skins page, again like they were on the old site? I'm talking about the second sorting window, while the first has selected: ALL libraries.

Thanks

I would like to see a "sort by type" in the second drop down.

But anyhow - Flyin the "totals" thing you guys implemented hasn't updated in awhile. Mine reads 179,000 dls when my stats page says I'm above 181k.

Just thought you should know...
