The Positive 4.0 Sift Talk

A lot of people have problems with change. Eventually we'll all come to agreement on any minor detail. I for one think 4.0 is sexy and has a lot of potential. Only post things you like about our new website on this thread...

i've quickly developed a constant, almost uncontrollable urge to eat the shiny little icons to the right of the search box.

i also love the way you can now upvote videos you enjoy or downvote ones you dislike.

Yay for staying positive. I like it all apart from I do agree with some members that they should've got to keep their previous levels. Love the way it looks and the dropdown menus. Recommendations is wicked, although I have 15 pages somehow.

*quality for rottenseed for not whining like a little bitch for once!

Drax says...

They added many new little subtle features and they pulled it off eloquently IMO. I haven't stumbled over anything to complain about....


...though I still feel like taking a pair of scissors to all the dotted lines...

There's too many things to list... I like how the top bar/banner isn't as cluttered anymore (ie. the new "drop down" system which changes the options on the bar below, the VaroCMS, Escaplopter, etc are gone). It gives it a cleaner look.

I like the new logo, but miss my Siftbot. Does this mean I might finally have a chance at Sift domination?

I like the drop down for my user name giving the quickly used tools.

I like the new icons representing star level.

As Andy would say in the 40-year old Virgin: NIIIIIIIIIIICE.

I think the Recommended tab could be something great. A way of putting forward videos from the past that a person hasn't seen. Even though I'm a fairly new member I've seen good videos fade into the background of videosift. It's a great idea to bring past videos from the enormous VS archive to the forefront for those that choose to do so.

Logo, icons, day/night, better ajax, menus (although getting away from a channel can be a bit of a hassle).

I'm not sure what I think of the blue border around the page though, but other than that little thing, the UI is generally improved. Good on ya, cdm.

Okay, aside from turtles, I really love the Recommended Videos. Unfortunately it doubles as a deterrent to keep me from UPVOTING EVERYTHING, because then my recommendations will be filled with shit I don't care to see! I also like the Top New Discussions nav item at the top. Very cool.

as a charter I enjoy the pqeued vids on your profile feature, and so far every recommended video i've watched was very enjoyable, almost perfectly matched to meet my interests. i could go on. the changes here are awesome.

I like all you guys making this such a positive transition. It's by far the most upbeat evolution I've experienced here. So, thanks, guys and gals.

Something else I like is the new VideoSift t-shirt that everyone seemed to overlook.
