In this thread we will document all feature and interface adjustments to the site.

I think you should go full three wolf moon.

Pondering a small redesign...

Made some changes tonight that really have sped up the load time on the site based on user feedback. Please let me know if you notice the increase in speed too!?

I noticed. Page loads are faster for sure.

It seems a bit faster and I'm on the computer at work which is normally hella slow. I really noticed it on the "Happy Thread" which is quite picture-heavy.

Following discussions and comments on photos on PL currently isn't as easy as it could be. When another member comments on your content — or something you've already commented on — you receive an email notification with a link to see what's been said.


Tonight that changes! Instead of having to visit PL to keep up with discussions and photo comments, you'll be able to view the content right within your email. Email notifications will include the first 200 characters of text added. So that same reply above might, instead, look something like this:



Because we are a community, we encourage you to acknowledge comments and to thank people for kind words. After all, the reason you post is for people to notice and give feedback, spread the love!

Please be sure you are using a valid email address on your profile, update it here: http://www.pinuplifestyle.com/profiles/settings/editProfileInfo

Some quick changes late last night that should make load times even faster, also enabled a chat bar that will display the number of people online, allow you to go online/offline, and flash when you have a PM if you aren't in chat.

We wanted to let you know about an awesome change that we made to the site this morning. This update will make the experience of viewing photos on PL a much better experience, and more consistent with other social-networking and photo-sharing platforms.

Easier Navigation
Clicking on a photo now takes you to the next photo. So instead of forcing you to find the "Next" button and click on it, you can just click on the photo you're currently looking at to bring up the next photo.
Clicking on a photo used to open a new window containing the full-size version of the photo. Since most sites take users to the next photo when they click on a photo, your PL will now behave much more like you expect it to!

We hope you enjoy the update, and we'd love to hear your feedback!

Good work on the photo gallery change!

[Ghoulie Kira]

ya loving the update :]

[Edson Carlos]

Harder Better FASTER Stronger!

As always we're working hard to make your experience on PL a GREAT one, with that said we're currently focussed on FASTER, please give feedback if you've noticed things faster! And enjoy this little gem...

[Edson Carlos]

Faster faster!

LOVE this update. I was always clicking on the photo itself assuming it would automatically take me to the next, and would get so aggravated when ending up just viewing the same photo on a new page. >.<
Haha, so thanks for this adjustment!
