Testing Spacehey. Some gripes I have compared to Myspace.

May add more as I go along.

  1. I'll just come right out and say it... The name is weird and could have been better.
  2. Lack of gallery. Myspace used to have a gallery, and the ability to sort photos into albums. On Spacehey, you cannot even click to see a person's profile photo.
  3. Lack of freedom. You CAN personalize your profile, but Spacehey demands you keep the header, logo and footer... Why? Do we need to advertise Spacehey and its creator despite BEING ON Spacehey? Unmoderated layouts state to "use at your own risk" by Spacehey, which sounds a little threatening.
  4. No such thing as private profiles... Personally I don't care about this at all in the early stages of breathing life into this website. But a nice option to have later. Added by An in Nov 2021. Nice!
  5. Not very intuitive in some areas, making it annoying to use. One example is when I get new friends requests and/or comments, I click the notification. And then I have to click ANOTHER button to view my friends requests, or my comments. If there are plans to separate these from the beginning, then do so. Don't make me load a separate page, forcing me to click twice to view whatever notification I have.
  6. The code. I can't use my old layouts because the classes have been changed (yes, I saved all my old layouts.)
  7. When editing my profile, I don't like that I see my profile differently than everyone else, being that there are "edit"/"edit your profile" buttons plastered all over my profile. I need to open a new browser just to view it normally. This is an attempt to be intuitive in a place I don't want it.
  8. I just looked at this blog post and the width of my profile photo is stretched out. Wtf. I must really be in the year 2005. Fixed
  9. Where dat Top 8 at?
All things considered, I am glad Spacehey exists. I just want it to be a little bit more like Myspace in ways I've detailed above.

I made a top 8 but it uses HTML. It's quite clunky. I'd rather have the feature embedded into the friends space to make it more intuitive. Much easier too!
