Entry #1
Well, here's my first news post. I would've loved to have said something sooner, but I was away in Cuba and their internet was terrible, so I had to wait until I got back home to actually see the new layout.
So my thoughts on the redesign. I think it's awesome, but there's a few things I don't like about it. Besides some of the current problems, I really don't like the new profile picture size. I prefer the 150 x 150 px size and not this weird 212 x 159 one. Because of that, I can no longer use the profile picture I had before the redesign, so I'll either just make a new picture or put the picture I had on a 212 x 159 px transparent background.
OK, that was the negative thought out of the way. For the positive thoughts, I like what the level system is like now. It has nicely improved with 60 levels and Pimp, the top EXP user not even at the highest level. :O Also, I like most of the level icons there and my favourites from the original 30 are on the 60 levels, so that makes me happy, except for being disappointed that the nunchucks are easier to get and I wish I could have them on this account again. I'm not a big fan of the butcher's knife. :P Oh well, my alts will eventually reach level 27.
Another thing I like is that you will be told if there's been a new review written for your flashes or not, so that will save me A LOT of time going through each of my flashes to see new reviews...That's if it was working properly. Oh well, I know it will be fixed eventually along with other things that aren't working right now. So overall, I really like the redesign and I thought the wait was worth it.
Now that I'm back from holiday, I can go back to working on flashes and there's some ideas I've got, especially a flash that will start using Afro_Stud as the voice actor for himself and my real life friend Pokelord-EX as the voice actor for Graham. The only big problem I've got now is trying to think of a short plot for Clock Day (not the one that's to do with Mario and Sonic) and I know time will quickly fly by from now until Clock Day, so better start thinking now. :P
OK, that's everything I wanted to say about the redesign and a bit about my flashes. For how I was at Cuba, just take a look at my journal at deviantART. :)
