Not sure if it's been asked before, but I think a 'Preview' button when you write a review would be very helpful, to avoid some paragraph, other of the type mistakes. The other idea is to place the 'Buddy List' in a more accesible place to press, like besides the memberlist or something of the sort. Just my 2 ideas. |

I suggested it a long, long ago... ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

But now that it's Pablo who is suggesting it, the idea might be taken seriously.  It's a good idea.

Preview button is absolutely necessary! Some other points: 1. Buttons B, I, U (bold, italic, underlined), like in forum posts, instead of tags (like <b>text</b>, <i>text</i>) are much more convenient. 2. Quotation marks are not supported in reviews. 3. To have a paragraph break you need to press Enter key twice. Why? ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |

Those would be major improvements. A WYSIWYG editor for composing reviews would be very useful.

| ^yeah, but the emoticons would be a bit messy, as well as the font and size. |

Absolutely  . I haven't written a review in some months, but I remember that in the first part of the year, after posting a review, I always had to go back and insert quotation marks and paragraph breaks. And I agree that both reviews and bios would look much neater with bold and italics. |

Ha-ha, I never thought about that. I suppose such features could be disabled, but even even I might take up reviewing here if I could say it in emoticons -- or at least incorporating many into my review. Could change the guidelines a bit (a terrible little adaptation)
PROGARCHIVES REVIEWS GUIDELINES:
< name="IacceptRules" id="IacceptRules" value="true" =""> I agree with the Progarchives guidelines
Emoticon translation for those who can neither read or write in English (though If you can't you don't know that this is your translation, so, erm...). [  ] <--  ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |
