Meh. My only compliant is that I have to type in a subject.

New compliant. If a reviewer has their PM system disabled you can't reply to their review.

That's not new, I think...

The fact isn't but now that the reviews are done through the PM system you can't. Before they were sent to the person's email.

As far as I can tell. I tried to reply to someone and couldn't because they had disabled their PMs.

Ugh, I know. Especially when somebody sent me a review asking me a question, and now I can't answer it for them! *headdesk*

The green is rather hard on the eyes. I do appreciate it for not letting me reply to the awesome invitation I got to join a "concritter" group, however. I don't think I would have been nice.

This may be my version of IE, but my messages now look like this:

Does anyone else have this problem? It makes them rather irritating to read. :/

The Account format's Changed!

They changed everything on the accounts to drop down menus on the left side. I don't know how I feel about it but I had to explain how to upload documents, label them and publish to a new writer (and it's always exciting to find new ones on smaller fandoms!) and I had to try to figure it out myself before reporting back.

Ugh! I REALLY hate this new format. It looks messy and it's hard on my eyes. The information on the right-hand side now appears so small. I hope they change it back :(

Maybe I'm weird, but I like the new system a lot better than the glitchy tab system they had for years. And I'm glad that they kept the same menu organization. I really wouldn't have liked getting used to a whole new set-up.

Same here. It's very hard to read the replies when they are all squished into a narrow column on one side. It's not a matter of getting used to a "new look" if the new look is actually user-unfriendly.

And the whole different layout of the account, with the rather stark menus on the side (with some of the drop-downs renamed), doesn't seem as pleasing or friendly as the old way.

I have the exact same problem with the vertical message thing, I have to read my messages from my email, and even then, GAAAH ¬_¬.

Aside from the ugly layout, there are two things I don't like:
1) In the past, the Inbox tab will notify you if you have a new PM. (for example, Inbox (1) ) But it no longer does so.
2) No preview of what the message contains

Document Manager timing out

I tried to use the document uploader and was getting this:

Request Timeout

This request takes too long to process, it is timed out by the server. If it should not be timed out, please contact administrator of this web site to increase 'Connection Timeout'.


So I just copied and pasted on an old one and that was how I did my story update on FF today

That also happens to me!! I can't UPDATE my STORRRRRRy!! *cries in the corner*
Oh well, readers might as well wait...for it.

I hope that FFN would fix the problem right away. :((
