| And if you missed the second announcement:
New Profile System!
If you have been a member of Desktop Nexus for a while, you'll notice we've recently undergone some big updates to the My Account and Profile system!
Among the new features are:
- Fully revamped Private Message system
You can now perform mass actions on PMs, there is additional spam prevention technology, and you now have the ability to report a malicious private messages
- Fan System
As mentioned in the previous announcement, if you have used Twitter of Facebook, you'll recognize this feature. Now you can become a fan of other members and follow all their activities on Desktop Nexus!
- Journals!
Journals are essentially a blogging platform built directly into your profile. You can use them to post your thoughts and opinions on site news, world events, personal stories, etc. Additionally, you can respond to other member's journal entries, similar to how the Trackback feature works on blogs.
- More Granular Email Control
Now you can specify exactly what emails you want to receive from Desktop Nexus (such as if you want to get an email when someone comments on your profile or sends you a PM, but not when a member comments on one of your wallpapers).
- Invisible Mode
For those who desire to enjoy this site in privacy, there's now a privacy mode, where when on, your username will not show up in the "Online Members" list, and your avatar will not appear in "Recently Spotted Members" blocks.
- Member Block List
Now if a member is bothering you, you can simply add them to your block list. If a member is blocked, they cannot send you private messages, comment on your profile, nor comment on your wallpapers. This should let you enjoy the site without that member's interference.
- .. and many more small things
Browse around and explore. There are a number of new updates all around the site. We also plan on continuing to add functionality over the next few months, including the ability to further personalize and customize your profile.
This evolution of Desktop Nexus is very exciting. The member profiles haven't been updated since our inception nearly 3 years ago, and the My Account page has been equally neglected.
But with all new functionality, there are sure to be some initial glitches. [color=#900]If you find any problems, broken links, or glitches with the new systems, or if you would like to share any feedback with us (we'd REALLY appreciate your feedback), please contact us.
Thanks! |
