New to spacehey, not new to myspace. We need top 8, and photo albums asap!

First blog post, and I'm just gonna jump right into suggesting the 3 most memorable options I can currently recall as being rather iconic, starting with Top 8. For those that remember and those that don't, Top 8 was a friend ranking system that allowed you to rank your top 8 friends in any order based on whatever criteria you deemed fitting or fun. I think a small improvement on this would simply be to make it Top 10 instead of Top 8, it's still an even number, but grants an extra 2 slots, allowing spacehey to be both similar to OG myspace, while also maintaining it's own individuality simultaneously.

Next, is photo albums, a big part of the OG feel was due to the ability for folks to upload a decent amount of images, usually filtered or uniquely edited selfies or pictures with friends, most heavily indulged by scene kids, emos, and the folks that would become known as alternative heads today. I can personally remember editing lots of images for my friends and myself to make our shit look as clean and personalized as possible lmao.

Lastly, having the Instant Messenger able to pop up on the bottom of the screen in separate windows feels pretty crucial to me. To add, we do not need any sort of "seen" or "read" indicators included in the Instant Messenger, back when myspace was at it's peak you simply had to wait until whoever you were speaking to, got back to you in their own time, with no indication of if they had read or seen your latest message(s). I find this to be rather iconic, typically overlooked, and something unique compared to modern social media messengers.

We need these 3 functions on spacehey as soon as possible.

You forgot to mention allowing GIFs in comments. That was also one of the great thing about MySpace.
