Thumbnails for multimedia now appear to be working. We're also looking at implementing thumbnails for stories in the future.
We've had a few design changes to the activity feed - promoted images were made smaller, mostly because of the repetition that we had with these showing up. We're going to make these larger and consolidate them to one promoted post per image in the feed.
Once that's done, we'll look into adding the ability to comment directly from that page. I agree that the less time you have to load, the more likely people will use features.
We currently have some ideas that we're going to work on implementing.
We'll be including a Discord server to chat. This will likely happen early next week. We're also going to have a shout-out style section for people's profiles; these will be optional and can be disabled by users. We're also looking into ways to add group support for the site.
All of these will take time, of course, and I imagine it'll be a process rather than one solid update. However, we hope we can get several of these implemented sooner rather than later.
The site has undergone some significant redesign - the left menu can be collapsed to make it simpler, and the menu when clicking the setting button at the top-right has been cut down. We're at the point where the basic layout is more-or-less finalized, and we're working with additional features and changes.
Thank you for sending these suggestions earlier, and I hope this can fit most people's needs.
The site has undergone significant redesign. With the way the site is currently designed, we haven't had any requests to add this change; the text changed from "Load Submissions" to "Fetching Submissions" when it begins to get the next images.
At this point, I'd say that we're going to pass on the idea, but we'll take a look later if there's significant demand in the future.
We haven't had a large demand for this. While it's a good idea, it likely would take a large amount of work for something that might not be used too often. If more people did want this option in the future, we could definitely consider it again.
When browsing submissions in a folder, you can use left and right arrows to navigate through the pages. One problem, though, is that submissions in folders can't currently be reordered; we're looking into allowing reordering in the future.
At this point, we're working to improve the activity feed. One of the biggest things we'll be doing is consolidating promoted art; that way, you don't have the same thing appear over and over. We'll also have those appear larger and enable users to fave/promote from the activity feed.
We've found that not too many people currently use the status update function. Because of this, there's little to no benefit to disabling that unless it becomes a problem in the future. For now, we're going to pass on this suggestion, but we'd take it into a consideration if it did become a problem.
We are currently looking into this option and seeing how it could be implemented. I completely agree that people should be able to search for specific commission types.

At the moment, we're not going to plan to color-code the notification list; while this would help a large number of people, it would leave out those who are colorblind. Instead, we're looking at various ways to sort the notification area.
