Thoughts?
Aug 26 2008, 11:18 AM EDT Per the update above we wanted the look and feel of the emails to mirror your sites more closely. We also included additional data in them like avatars and member data so you can get a better sense for the contents of the message without having to click through to the site. Please let us know what you think about these changes. We appreciate your feedback! 11 out of 13 found this valuable. Do you? |

Aug 26 2008, 12:13 PM EDT Awesome! I like this new design on the Wetpaint Emails.. Looks like you guys changed the subject when these are sent, therefore, I need to change a few settings for my email -- I was sorting by which notification it is (automatically). Thanks for the release and it was awesome, but you wouldn't expect less from Wetpaint! :) Do you find this valuable? |

Aug 26 2008, 6:32 PM EDT I really don't care about emails nonetheless how they look... Personally, I think you guys wasted your time with this update. This type of update should be a corresponding update after a huge update. In addition, most (and could be all in other wikis) members have fake or not used emails account. This feature isn't a feature to get excited about. Like the last feature of an updated photo gallery (in which I still support every member having there own). You guys should have worked on something that can put grins on peoples faces. But! Still a good job! 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

Aug 28 2008, 11:46 AM EDT "What is so good about that...."Well, if they are making the emails look the site then they should include a banner? Nothing is good about it except it would just make the email look more like the actual site, Do you find this valuable? |

Aug 28 2008, 2:06 PM EDT "Will site banners be integrated later?"Possibly. There are some technical issues with resizing the banners to fit into a standard size for an email. Banners on sites can vary quite a bit in height and width, so resizing them to fit a common size for the email template would make many of them blurry. One possibility for a future release is to allow site creators to upload their own custom banner to be used for email. No solids plans for that in the next few releases, but maybe down the road a bit. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Aug 28 2008, 2:33 PM EDT How does the adding of imagery affect the intended recipients, who may have security settings on their e-mail filters to protect against image borne threats. I wonder if there are too many images if many people will actually open them. Many may just be "junked" by the e-mail filters of the recipients and would be lost...just food for thought...

The email messages that we send out drives a huge amount of traffic on the Wetpaint network, so it's actually very important to our success. Do you find this valuable? |

Sep 3 2008, 6:08 AM EDT I only invite people I expect to click through to the site as my sites are private so no real additional benefit here, what the change has done for ALL my sites is basically inactivate them all because since the 25th Aug release NO ONE can edit pages anymore as it comes up with a message saying access denined.

What site or sites is this problem occurring on? Is the message they are seeing a browser dialog or a message from the Wetpaint site? What browser and operating system are the members having this problem using? Do you find this valuable? |

RE: Thoughts?
Sep 3 2008, 2:42 PM EDT They are using IE and its all my sites the critical one at the moment is uclhoncall.wetpaint.com as people are currently building this site and they now cannot edit any information, but this problem is reported everywhere by many people not just me and my sites and its all happened since the last release. Can you undo the last release and go back to what you had before all these problems happened, if you read the other areas of wetpaint central lots of people are reporting the same problem. The error is inthe bottom left hand corner of the screen it is not a wetpaint message it is basic an error in loading the sub menu (i.e your edit pop-up ) is where the denied access message is. Its a triangle with an explanation mark against the word done, it says page loaded with errors and when you look at the error its access denied, this nevr happened before the reason changes and I've emptied cahe etc. Do you find this valuable? |

Sep 5 2008, 9:28 PM EDT My thoughts on this update; The Good The e-mail update is great, and the new anonymous pictues look good. The Bad Somehow editing has become slower, and accidentaly clicking something while any easyedit option is loading, could kick you off the internet. ~Marioman1000 Do you find this valuable? |
