Hiya,
We are not entirely sure we have put this in the right forum so feel free to move if its not.
We have noticed that since the new gallery update, Internet explorer pops up a msg everytime we click on a new profile. 'Internet explorer has blocked this site form using and active-X control' We have not changed any setting it is only happening since the new upgrade went live at midday. Also when we view pictures on someones profile in the new style gallery it is not filling the screen and the bottom is chopped off, this happen evrytime and we can't expand it or move it?
Just thought that admins should be aware this is happening so it can be corrected. Pretty sure its not our end as we have not altered anything.
Thanks,
D & S x
I`m not too keen on it to be honest, you cant see how far people are from you like in the old format, you have to click on a pic then all is revealed, plus I only want to look at that pic not 10 more similar to it, then when I back out of the pic I have to start all over again in the different categories rather than just backing out of the pic into the categorie I was already in.
I`m not too keen on the comments part either, not all people are kind in their thoughts, we dont want to see them in black and white.
Hope all that made sense, it did to me whe I typed it :doh:

I'm not at all impressed by "the new gallery"!
It's taken away functionality, (like who's close to you), splats stuff you don't want across the screen, which itself is cut off, and not scrollable, presumably due to a coding bug.
What's the quote? "If it's not broken, don't fix it!"???
Probably won't renew, if it's going to continue like this...
OK, I have questions...
Is there a button to disable the comments on the photo and where is this button found?
Why have we not been inboxed about this change?
I'm going to reserve comment about its full usuability because I'll give it a bit of time, trial and error to get used to it.
kiss LG. x
I :love: the new Gallery wink
Hi,
Yesterday at midday we launched the new photo and video viewer and added this to the top of your home page when you log into the site:
New Photo and Video Gallery! We have upgraded the photo and video gallery to enhance usability and performance. You can now receive and submit Comments on the gallery. You are in full control of your own materials on the site and you can opt out of this system by customising your Photos and Videos Privacy Settings. We welcome you to contact us with your feedback via the Help Centre.

You can customise your privacy options with regards to receiving comments on your photos by following the Privacy Settings prompt in the above text.
If any technical support is required or you wish to report a bug or fault with the new system, please follow the Help Centre prompt.
We'll also take constructive feedback on board :thumbup:
Personally I don't like it and would prefer to revert back to the previous system.
nice to see we can leave comments and praise for those who have photos.
comments and more.
well done admin for allowing this.

Whose moaning dunno
Personally, and it is my personal opinion I liked the old system better, I liked the fact you could see whose close and it was easier to link up the pics just from this one simple peice of info.
We have quite a few pics on our profile and I add my own comments to them, like I said in another thread, they are mainly for our enjoyment and to mark some very memorable and very sexy times.
If you click on a photo the distance is displayed under the photo, its also possible to sort by distance.
Seems like everytime something new and improved is added to the site it makes using the site less enjoyable:-we think the older video and photo libraries were far better:-easier to use and clearer,we don't need all this fancy stuff to enjoy swinging!
Prefer the old system, you could see how far away they were before clicking on the photo.
another vote for the old system of pics here!
Again, I'm not against change but the new system doesn't really add a lot of benefit. Like many others, I would look at pictures by distance from me - while there might be some stunning photos on there, if the person is at the other end of the country it's not likely to work. Secondly, most browsers support tabbed browsing meaning you could right click and open pic in a new tab, letting that one load while you continued to look. The new system doesn't allow this so it becomes far more time consuming and I don't even know if the person is anywhere near me now.... If you search by distance you get photos that can be from profiles that haven't been used for months - defeating the object of looking for the new photos.
A :thumbup: to the new system here, we love it!
Shaz n Tony :-)
love the new gallery but still trying to suss it out.. How do you leave feedback and rate?
when you have the pic visible you want to leave a comment on, click on the 'feedback' tab to the top right of the pic. You can then leave a comment regarding the pic -as I just did on one of yours.
Hope that helps.

Kewl this has obviously been worked on as the viewing window now fits our screen adn IE has stopped blocking active-x controls everytime we click on someones profile now.
Actually quite like the new gallery now. Thanks whoever sorted these issues out.
