The clicking 3 times to see a picture is super annoying!
Indeed.

So you guys don't like the alt+click or ctrl+click or whatever it is?


Nope, cos it doesn't always work which is annoying.

AFAIC, the only features needed are the last 25, basic search, comments (for teh funnay), one click to see a pic and a link to the details if I want them. Kinda like before.

NSFW tagging was a good idea but it was set per user, not machine, from what I could tell. So if I wanted to browse NSFW at home I'd have to change it every time. Either that or I'm a dumba$$ :D

The gallery view in the previous version was *much* better. I won't miss v3, as someone else said, it put me off using the site.

now i have an issue but it's a minor one.

pics.bbzzdd.com is accessible from work for me, which is great. however, sometimes the thumbnails on the main page are of NSFW pics. so i am trying to go there covertly and avoid the boobage etc., and i still end up getting burned.

don't get me wrong - i really really appreciate the service. i think perhaps i should just not visit from work. thanks to all that run this service - i have never had pic hosting and i enjoy it!

:beer:

Please don't take this the wrong way - but I HATE the new version, very hard to navigate, etc..

Is Pics 2.x opensourced? Because hacking NSFW tagging (IMO, 3.x's only redeeming feature) back on would be relatively easy.

The question is, if I can make the site fast enough with the new version would that be acceptable, or just to hell with it go back to what worked for years.

Please. I beg you.

I love the site...but never click at work due to sometimes a post like 'cute kitty' results in an open spread ;)

I don't mind seeing that, but at work I don't...it's all logged, I work in the IS department :)...plus at the wrong time someone else seeing my screen would be bad and not easily explained.
