Nyx's Pyx: A Remyx

I've definitely enjoyed your photos as well.

I agree there are some issues, but there are also some benefits with this new software. The silly 150-message PM limit seems to be gone.
The editor is better. The search is better and faster. And the site in general runs better and faster on XenForo vs. the clunky and particularly badly written code of a lot of the previous vBulletin system. Give it a couple of weeks to let the geeks get it dialed in. People always hate change.
Thank you. Don't get me wrong...there are definitely good things about it. It's just my personal comfort level as far as posting pyx. We will see how it goes...

I don’t think the people who did these “upgrades” thought everything through.
 
I am not a fan of change format. Trying to work it out. See many quiting .social media feeling is big turn off.

please drop me a note

hugs kisses

I know...will take a bit of getting used to Fred :heart:
 
I'm not a big fan of the share button either and I don't post pics here. My wife used to have a thread here, the idea that someone could have shared her pictures that easily to a vanilla platform so easily would have given us pause.
Yeah like I said...I realize it could've been shared before. They've just made it too easy.

I can't know their thought process, but to be fair AmPyx isn't the focus of this site. So I can see how it would be useful for writers and maybe they have a vision for that.

Maybe. I haven’t written a story for this site in years, so I don’t know. However, I did see some comments on one of my stories lamenting the fact that I haven’t continued it. I wouldn’t have seen that without the updates. Nice, but it doesn’t outweigh the problems of this new setup.

AMPICS has always been a tremendous draw to lurkers and new Liter's, it and the story side have always shown up on search engines. That's how I first came to Lit circa '05 under another user name. I left and lost all of that info. Now the share function is of concern, plus the new layout is requiring a ground-up learn it over routine. I cannot fault anyone who decides that this new format and sharing function is enough to make them leave. Plus the buddy list changing to following and followers all viewable to others is problematic.

I'm sure they'll sort things out as they come up....I think it's just a personal choice. Probably depends a lot on what a person is here for.

I haven't found it all that difficult to navigate and use so far. The following/followers thing, the like button...you can also see what users are viewing...it's just a totally different vibe and again probably personal preference. People will adjust or move on.

Well, you make Lit a happier place and are great to interact with here and in the PG. Your pic posting is just icing on the cake.

Thank you tnman :heart: I have a lot of fun with everyone who will interact with me lol.
 
Several people have removed or are removing pictures for security fears.

It’s their decision.

But I see some threads actually more active. This may draw a different kind of user.

There will just be some turnover.

It’s happened with us in the past so no more

It probably will...and it is much easier and quicker to use and interact with people in some ways. I've noticed a change too...it's not good or bad just different. Life is change...no use in getting your panties in a bunch over it...if you're wearing any :cattail::D
 
I honestly don't know if it's happened to me...probably. But good to know...thanks HH.
It is a little less likely to happen to you because of your watermark. Most people here post without them so there is nothing to identify them.
 
I've never had to deal with the size limit thing.....leave it for now and enjoy a break Fred lol :heart:


This is problem

Welcome to another exciting Wednesday Nyx I think people should get their panties in a bunch. Not because of the changes (change is just life), but because I like the idea. My fertile imagination visualizes...everything!
 
Thank you. Don't get me wrong...there are definitely good things about it. It's just my personal comfort level as far as posting pyx. We will see how it goes...
My idea as well, Nyx. I guess the forum still needs some tweaking. It will get better.
