Mixed feelings.

At first, I thought it was great, especially with the recent influx making the gallery change so quickly. Then, I started to add favorites to follow, and I realized the list was starting to get so long that scrolling through my update page (which shows one image at a time rather than rows like the gallery) takes me too long and defeats the purpose of the following feature. There was a tradition in Twitter before it got so popular of following those who follow you -- one of the reasons I have avoided Twitter. I would much prefer to have a place to put quick links to other artist's gallery's rather than get updates as they submit pictures.

I do wish we had the option of keeping our "favorite" artist list private. I think it should be a choice. If someone wants to make it public, he/she should be able to, but the default should be private.

(Oh, just stop competing over your the number of favorites

I love the updates because i don't want to miss anything..i'm very eagerly anticipating the new theme!!! Thanks for all your work to make this website so much fun!

after reading previous posts i do agree that the follow lists should be private if possible. i'm still thrilled with the new feature though=)

It's gone ... The new feature has disappeared.

I still have the follower feature on the profile page -- the updates link is gone. I'm guessing it might have overloaded and needs tweaking; a little while ago, think draw was down in its entirety for me.

Oh and i was so hoping that it was down because they were giving us the new theme!

I tried accessing TD a few minutes ago and it kept taking me to a 'Think Draw will be back soon' page. And yes, the new feature dissappeared. I totally agree on the privacy option (although we kinda' know our 'stalkers ' and we are also known as 'stalkers ' now...lol, I liked the way Puzzler put this ). At first i didn't follow to many people, because I imagined something like updates coming every minute. I found the feature of browsing through people's we follow galleries very useful (the one we find along with 'My pictures, 'All pictures', 'My favorites''). Actually I think this should do...

OPS I loved the update function and the new one..But agree on keeping it private!!Should these functions be refined..it would be wonderful!!!Love those applications, I thought I could easily find my favorite artists late creations , to follow the 'GROWING" AND "CREATIVITY" in a much easy way!!The list could easily grow much though!!!

I love the update feature, I also liked following my favs but I still go through the gallery as I did before to see whats new! The updates list did get a bit long. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this site, its my fav!

Qsilv

oooh the length of the updates list is not a problem... it's a major part of the gift!
Imagine how many we lose any indication of if we disappear for a day or two and the tiny group of 5 in the comments tab just gets eclipsed time after time!

Rachel et al... I'm sooo sorry if we/I gave you the wrong impression on that!

Ditto Qsilv- Please may we have the updates page back. Thanks Rachel, you really do spoil us. thanks

SO IT IS STILL PRESENT IN THE PROFILE...

Think Draw has spoiled me to the point of not being able to function. I logged on just now to see if the site was back to working properly, and I immediately noticed my updates link was missing. For a moment I simply sat here in front of my computer at a complete loss for what to do next and nearly in a panic.

What if someone has left a comment?! What if someone has drawn a new picture?! How ever will I know???!!!

God forbid I peruse the main gallery or actually revisit my pictures and read through my comments like I have been for months now. *sigh*

I promise not to lose touch with the old ways of Think Draw navigation...but still...could I please have my updates back? Pretty please... With sugar on top...

... or perhaps a sprinkling of chocolate? We promise to be good for at least a day.
