Self-Destructing Messages (Long-Term)
You should be able to send messages in a way that will cause them to be eventually expunged from the database after a set period of time (months or years—the shortest option should probably be at least a couple weeks.)
Thinking about privacy and security in the long term, one of the most potentially harmful things that could be gleaned from a compromise of an individual's FN account is the Messages conversations they're party to (as either sender or recipient). This is not just about RL-identifying information (like telling an artist your real-name PayPal email address, or providing info for a room share at a con with someone), but also discussions of non-public personal interests, etc...
Implementing an option to delete messages manually does not address this concern, unless it's done such that any participant in a messages conversation can cause the message to be removed from all participant's view on the site. (If FN did choose to go that route with message deletion and work out a timed two-phase delete so abuse can still be investigated—that'd be awesome!)
Anyway, I think it would be great if there was an option to send a message with a (long-term) self-destruct timer such that eventually, barring the occurrence of a particular administrative reason to preserve specific users' data (abuse case/subpoena/etc...), all copies of the message would be deleted in time, disappearing first from both the sender and recipients' view of the site and later from the database entirely.
This is not about guarding against malicious intent on the part of any participant in a private conversation. Trying to secure content against the intent of someone you're sending it to is a complete waste of time, so please don't bother bringing up "but they can screenshot it" lines of reasoning about this. This is about making it so that your intent to have a message be ephemeral can be clearly communicated and automatically executed. (The will of people you're chatting with are not the threat this (or anything) can guard against—it's all about the bastards who get passwords from hacking some other site then get into your correspondent's FN account because of password re-use.)
Better notification of FA import
When the import for FA was finished I never received an e-mail, but more importantly, the stuff gets put in drafts with no indication. The least that can be done is writing that imported items end up in drafts, but an on-site notification on top of the e-mail would be nice.
Add artwork creation date field and sorting options
Add a field that the artist can set to the date that the artwork was actually created, not just uploaded somewhere, ideally allowing both a specific date (6/26/2016) and just month/year or year options (July 2010).
Also add the ability to sort and group by month and year on user pages with this field. This could also be a global search option.
Flagged Postings
Regarding the postings I have that need to be deleted since the policy change, how do I go about deleting them? I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. I'm still getting use to how the navigation system on this site works.
Cub porn rules
Now when cub porn is banned, questions rise.
1. Is Sonic porn considered as cub porn like it's in FA or it is allowed?
2. Are you going to take ages of cartoon etc. characters seriously like FA does?
3. Is Spike from MLP FIM considered as cub like it's in FA?
Hey there Mewtwolover,
Our moderation team is working together to come up with some internal policies for where we draw the line on content like that mentioned. We hope to have some solid guidelines for our team to follow - as well as practical guidance for users looking to upload said content - shortly.
That said, the best way to get a judgement call on art before upload is to send an email to management [at] furrynetwork dot com. Our moderation team can take a look at the artwork in question and get you an official answer.
Thanks!
Custom tabs on user page - "Artwork", etc. not enough
Each site has their own way of grouping submissions in a user's gallery, and I really don't think "Artwork", "Photos", etc. is enough.
I get there are folders, and these are useful, but don't go far enough in my opinion.
I'd like the ability to create custom "Artwork", "Photos", etc. tabs on my user page.
Example:
I like to group artwork in three main categories: Finished work, Doodles, and Art I've Commissioned.
I'd like to be able to create three "Artwork" tabs on my user profile for visitors of the site to easily decide if they just want to see my finished work or all my doodles as well.
This would also mean being able to doodle and post at will without worrying about burying my latest finished work.
Everything is grey
Hello !
So i'm new on FurryN and i did upload an avatar and a submission the other day but since few days all i can see is that i imported submissions in draft but no images appear when i click it doesn't do anything ... and even when i try to put an avatar ( mine is total grey now ) i see the 0% then window close and nothing new happened .
So what is wrong ?
I try to disable Adblock , nothing changed what i am suppose to do to make this site works for me seriously ? ^^ I need help !
Thankies
Left Sidebar
Any chance the 'FN Collections' sidebar could be on the left? It's a bit jarring to see the content and sidebar panes swap whenever you switch from your userpage to the media pages. Also tags and search on the left would make the UI more similar to other gallery sites.
