Thirded. The "Top Priority" should NOT be getting new users (while it of course should be high on the list), but it should be keeping the old, established users from leaving in disgust... you know, the ones that are already spending money, own sims, have a Second Life. How many big shops / brands have closed lately with statements like "I dont like SL anymore"...? Here's my personal "Like/Dislike" list about 2.x, with my own personal suggestions for improvements or what to port from 1.x: Like: the general feel of the new UI and the more streamlined menu Dislike: The color scheme (makes a lot of stuff hard to read); Suggestion: port the color scheme from 1.x (old one, not the lightblue one), or maybe the orageisch scheme from the starlight skin Dislike: the sidebar, and all that comes with it (Strong) Suggestion: make all UI elements that are not part of the menu, the toolbar or the chat bar non-modal dialogs where possible, modal dialogs only where necessary. Dislike: the fact that a lot of textures for profiles and such have changed size, forcing people to redo their profiles and "About Land", breaking them for 1.23 users by doing so Suggestion: get the old sizes back (see http://is.gd/elgvO) (Totally) Dislike: The way the profile shows first life and second life tab at the same time. If I wanted to flaunt my RL I would be on facebook. Facebook, by the way, still does not allow "Fake Personalities" and thusly is NO place for SecondLife avatars. Suggestion: Put Secondlife Tab and First Life Tab back on separated tabs, or at least use the "collapsible" firstlife section from starlight hope this list helps a bit. bye, LC _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
