Whilst the site is still in beta, I know that new features will be scant, or currently planned and just not added yet, or that things might change completely between now and next week for all I know. But maybe whilst we wait for the admins to do what they're planning to, we can throw around ideas for things that we'd like to see, and maybe pitch them to the admins at some point if they seem feasible. No I'm not making this thread to whine again about how there was no Creation categorization on Squiby. Not at all! XD; Okay, yes I am.
Hush.
Anyway, it'd be nice to get some discussions going. So what would we like to see?
I want a ponythe ability to separate creations into their own categories( and nobody was surprised! ), to make finding/organizing things easier. My squiby profile = nightmare to navigate because of so much STUFF there, all jumbled together in the order of 'whatever I felt like uploading that day'. I mean it's okay how Maxi has it set up at the moment, when there isn't a whole lot there, but creations pile up. Being able to say 'all my Daimin are in THIS section' or 'all Elen's Jungle Dragon v2s are in Here' or the like would be nice. XD
The other thing I think, and this is pretty minor, would be to remove the 'View all' button at the bottom of our profiles, as all it seems to do is cut off at the same point it already did, but now there are page links to the rest of the timeline. Could save an extra click just by having the page links there by default, I'd think.
*moan moan whine whine* XD

Yeah, I have already suggested categories for created pets to them It seemed like it was something they would like to add ^^ I have already suggested a few things for them =P And it seems they have a long list themself. I'll list some of the things they have thought about maybe adding, and asked my opinion on. (These are not set facts and might change a lot) - Little Gallery. Some Gallery space, maybe 10-50MB, Where users can show off their art or spoilers. - Myspace. This is a feature they would like to be payd for, but it seemed to be pretty reasoneable, something like just a few dollars a year. The url will be something like Myspace.maxicanvas.com/user/elen89, if I remember correctly. It's a one page web host, where you can add whatever code or stuff you want.

Copypasta'd things I posted on admin's page (Mainly the things I got from talking with braggie XD) "Hello
This is some notes from me about the ideas that could improve the site. (Apart from forums and password system, which Elen told me will be added later.)
One of my old friends told me they're not interested to join here because the images are too large. Surely it's good for the artists to show the details of their work, but maybe it's difficult to show these pics off-site as a forum signature, as many sites have dimension limits. She also thinks it's difficult for her to go through pages of large pics to level the pets.
Multiple part adoptables also doesn't work here, because there's a gap between each pic. Actually I'm not a fan of these multipart thing, but my friend was disappointed about this a bit.
So I wonder is there any ways to compromise this, for example, have a collection page showing small version of the pets that can be enlarged by clicking?
Also she and I share similar opinion that the timeline page of each user is cluttered. It'd be good if users can decide which categories of posts should be shown, maybe a drop-down menu to switch to other categories?"
Also there's an "images" tab when you try to edit your creations, not sure what it's for though. Maybe they decide to separate image editing from other options? XD Last thing is that I wonder if they have any ideas about paid feature beside those ads and the space Elen mentioned? (Thinking that Keith used to whine a lot about money stuff XD) EDIT: Also told KC about the new site. She said it would be good to have custom profile so that she could put a link to her comic.

1. The cookies seem off, I have to log back in everytime I come back
2. Allow avatars that are smaller than 85x85 , limiting to ONLY THIS EXACT SIZE seems to restrictive
3. Get rid of typos (like "freiend") in friend requests
4. Images are pretty big, if you have many adoptables, it will make your profile page reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally big
oh, and one question? Where can I make other groups than default?

I think adoptables should be smaller in ALL ADOPTABLES section and on your profile, but if you click it, I think it'll look nice bigger.

I like the big images on the all adoptions page I feel like then I'm not missing anything. On squiby, with the tiny images, when I was looking through the all adoptions page, It was so easy to overlook something. When the forums are done and up, and you want to show off your adopted or created pets, Then it's very easy to add a bit of code to your adoptables code to make the image smaller. For html code, this code is something like width="80" > in the last part of the img url. I suggest that this smaller code option could be added as an extra copyable code on the adopted/created pets info/edit page, Along with the other normal codes, to make it easy for people to get this option.

I strongly support smaller images. Maybe have thumbnails on profiles and in signatures, and full size images when leveling, adopting etc
oh, and maybe someone should be so good as to add maicanvas to Virtual Pets List

Is there a way to rename pets? If not, I think there should be an option to. Sorry if I just overlooked it.

Haven't gotten an answer yet. but I am very sure that will be added. they might add it like it used to be on squby, a long time ago, with one or two extra free stage to add, and more stages to add for premium accounts.

monthly maxi challenge? monthly maxicanvas challenge? the great maxi monthly challenge? XD no matter how it would be called it would be great to have it again ^^ and if the owners are going to implement it then they could program some aspects of it make make it go more smooth and stuff if the owners would ask me to host it I would gladly agree, but if they want to do this themselves (or have elen the admin do it XD) it would still be awesome XD
