Of course, that's par for my course! <br /><br />WATCHING is for those who want to only watch the forum members whose threads they do not want to miss. It's a way of creating a subset of the forum which gets very overwhelming. You can switch between the two modes whenever you want to.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-883143 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:52:26 +0000 bj1111 883143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ angie, thanks for the chiming in and the clarification.<br /><br />i think i'm going to hold off on the watching feature...i want to see everythang! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-883097 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:05:32 +0000 JuneBug 883097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I didn't know of the 'watching' feature! I've been a little busy and haven't fully explored all the new stuff here and it's exciting! I love the sleek, modern appeal! And IT IS soothing!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-883082 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:54:41 +0000 Angie 883082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ :)<br /><br />Thanks for the thread, bj. Your comments are interesting, and we are thrilled that the new design is going down so well.<br /><br />Btw, it's not a FOLLOWING feature. It's a WATCHING feature. The two are different, and our thinking was very deliberate. You cannot follow someone back, and you have no idea who is following you. Hence it's all about "Watching". Hope that makes sense.<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-883079 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:52:11 +0000 Elly 883079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My favorite is the fact that the tile mode now lets me view the first few words of threads that don't have pictures. I have another favorite board (not fashion related) that would let you hover over the title of threads and it would pull up the first sentence or so of the thread, which was great as a interest grabber and time saver since we aren't all wordsmiths and word our threads accordingly!&nbsp; I wish I could see this on the pic threads as well! <br /><br />I'm also wishing that there was something I could do to locate my posts in long threads, and I miss the monthly backgrounds and the green "Y" icon on my tabs!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-883023 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:57:01 +0000 ModeGekkie 883023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think is very minimalist and elegant. It has worked because I have just registered myself as a member and I am following ylf almost from the beginning!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882991 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:28:05 +0000 Anonymous 882991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love the leather look background too. I do know about the following button but have decided against it for now as I don't want to filter anyone out as a thread might pop up that really interests me and I could miss it if it was from someone not on my list. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882970 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:13:55 +0000 bj1111 882970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes...ornella, modern. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882839 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:33:12 +0000 harmonica 882839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ i like to switch mode too. and the layout is just so intuitive and i keep discovering new things <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882820 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 08:32:48 +0000 Ornella 882820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Tag lines at the top had me straight away, a subtle but powerful way to really plant into our minds what style and YLF are all about. See <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-content-of-the-new-pages">here</a></b>.&nbsp;<br /><br />I like the monochrome background of the front&nbsp;page, although I was a huge fan of the previous backgrounds which all reflected their respective months so faithfully.<br /><br />I like that pictures scroll around, like shevia I need two passes at least to see things more objectively. Great&nbsp;enhancement&nbsp;in terms of usability.<br /><br />I like readily available&nbsp;formatting buttons for the responses. And, when you type longer response and scroll the dialog box&nbsp;up and&nbsp;down, they remain visible at all times because they float so you can easily access them.&nbsp;<br /><br />Generally, I like the overall design, it is so fresh and modern that it instantly made many other sites look dated if I'm honest.<br /><br />There are many things I haven't tried yet, but that's OK, I like to take it all in slowly and gradually https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882757 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 04:14:27 +0000 kellygirl 882757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You click the eye under the person's profile picture on their profile page. Cool filter!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882755 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 04:08:26 +0000 bj1111 882755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ok...glad i started this thread. &nbsp;learning so many new things. &nbsp;where exactly is the "following" filter? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882718 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 03:23:56 +0000 velvetychocolate 882718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like being able to switch the 'mode' or view!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882709 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 03:15:07 +0000 lyn* 882709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like that if I am in a rush, I can just go to "FOLLOWING" filter and quickly browse to see if anything is new! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882699 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 03:03:55 +0000 bj1111 882699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Deborah...ylf at work is my guilty pleasure too. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882642 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 02:08:23 +0000 Deborah 882642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ bj that's one of the things I noticed too and I was actually just gazing at the screen this morning (at work lol) thinking what a lovely effect it is.<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882636 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 02:04:11 +0000 Jaime 882636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like that the pictures expand and keep scrolling around when you get to the end - it usually takes at least two looks for me to decide what I think. I like the background color also. I love the masonry view. I am sure there is more but that is what is off the tip of my fingers (?). https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882631 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 02:01:12 +0000 Raisin 882631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You've nailed mine! &nbsp;I love that background too! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882625 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 01:55:58 +0000 kellygirl 882625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Aesthetically, I&nbsp;love the sleek new format. The feature that allows us to view the threads in picture view is awesome. I love being able to change the viewing format to see if I missed&nbsp;anything. So cool. I'm looking forward to checking out the "following" feature too--but I haven't played with it yet. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882624 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 01:54:47 +0000 bj1111 882624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ one more thing i haven't noticed!<br /><br />thanks for the tip. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882621 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 01:53:22 +0000 Mo 882621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My favorite thing is that the MINE threads are now also coded (green, grey bubbles)&nbsp;so you can pick up where you left off, instead of paging from either the very first or very last post. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-thing-about-the-new-ylf#post-882614 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 01:49:29 +0000 bj1111 882614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ it took me a few days to digest the changes and interact with the site.<br /><br />my favorite thing is really quite small, but sets the tone for the site. &nbsp;i love the textured pebbly leather background in that greyish off-white tone. &nbsp;very soothing and calming and the perfect backdrop for monochrome or hectically patterned or color blocking or what have you.<br /><br />really sets the mood, which enhances the experience.<br /><br />what about you all?
