Firstly let me thank you for adding that new item box on index page. Lot better than what I was asking for…:)
Front end:
. Rank: I think the owner shouldn’t be allowed to “rank” himself.
. Comments: I couldn’t understand the purpose of comments. It may be something different than what I can understand. But if they are to just post comments about what you think of profile then I think there shouldn’t be “answer” link to it. Or if it is like a communication then I think only the profile owner should be able to answer the comments. Also when the community grows and you have like 100 friends, it might be difficult to keep a track of comment replies. So I feel the reply should go to the poster’s profile comment box. Something like orkut’s scrapbook.
. Profile pictures: I couldn’t click the profile pictures other than primary from IE6.
Admin section:
. Media: Min length of title for the media file is set to 3 I think. Because even if admin set less than 3 say ‘0′, it will ask minimum 3 letters to the member.
. Media upload: When member tries to upload media file exceeding maximum size, it is not allowed. That is fine, but there is no message displayed to convey to the member that he is exceeding the maximum limit so the file can’t be uploaded. I think a message should get displayed.
. Groups: I couldn’t find a place to limit the size of media files in groups. Also the options like whether members should be allowed to upload media in group or not, etc should be controlled by admin as a group global setting. Like 2 photos per member or 10 photos per group, something like that, so that admin can manage the available disk space better.
. mp3 player: Andrey you had talked about bit-rate setting for mp3 files from admin section. I think you forgot. Please add that.
. Action menu: Some mean to control action menu. I think till the time the “action menu” reflects the settings done from admin panel, the customization will not be complete.

Make Meaning Or Die
Hey Umesh, you have a point there with the comments. It should be if a member answers a comment the comment gets posted on the profile of the one who is answered to.
yeah utrmetsi see my post above
Here’s the way - we’re going to add a new comments system to 6.1, where Admin wold control the comments behavior on different pages, like.. Who can reply, allow replies or not, sorting, reply depth, pagination, show image or not, etc. Then you will decide yourself.
Actions Menu Builders are in works (yeah.. Builders everywhere).
All your other points are either being fixed or added to devzone. Thanks.
Thanks Andrey, but I still feel the current comments system need change. Let it be basic, but it will have a defined function. Some work on “answer” link please.
Regards
Umesh
