SITE UPGRADE New - Member Profiles, Avatars, Likes

[Jason]

This topic covers 3 different feature which have been updated:

• Member Profiles
  
• Avatars and Member Photos
  
• "Like"
  

Member Profiles -

Completely redesigned and simplified. A column on the left side allows you to toggle the different profile components such as the Profile Feed, About Me, Friends, Topics, Posts, and more - Without having to reload the page.

Editing your profile and account settings is now easier than ever. Just like when viewing a profile, a column on the left side allows you to browse and edit various components of your profile and account...All from a single page.

Avatars and Member Photos:

• Have been merged into one: member photo
  
• Can be easily uploaded from your computer or a web address
  
• Auto-update your member photo by synchronizing your account with Facebook and/or Twitter (details coming soon)
  
• Crop your photo once it's uploaded - No more needing to reply on photo editing software!
  

"Like This" -

The new "Like" system, often seen on social networking sites, has replaced the previous "Reputation" system, which allowed members to "up-vote"a post's "reputation." This "Like" system is an even better visual way for identifying good content and makes it more personal by leaving your name in the "like" list by clicking the link to see exactly who has "liked" a post.
