Feeds.. Nice...

...and for Pete's sake, the Monthly voting thing for January is (or is not) available in your Account Settings thingy. You could win $100! Dunno why there isn't some kind of exclamation point or something on that button, but I'm sure someone, someday, will add that to the css or whatever.

PS: If this was already mentioned by another member here, sorry! Got stuff to blam, no time to lose.

So now we can annoy people just by typing their names huh? Interesting.

You are a dummy butt.
On a side note when I revisit a thread the front page will still tell me there is a new response. Then point me to the same response.

Agreed. Definitely a nice surprise to see this feature after being away from Newgrounds for so long.

Nice to see everything working again!

Yeah, it's a surprise how the site has gone this long without having notification feeds. However, it is better late than never and the staff have done a tremendous amount of work lately.

Ohai @Ryan - also this is pretty cool, huzzah!

...? Yes it is - pretty sure that thing didn't go anywhere.

No, I know it's where it should be. Just needs a dashboard notification thing (like the number on the PM button) is all. I'd hate to think monthly voting gets overlooked (because Tom didn't mention it in this post). It's not too often members click the Account Setting button.
Also a countdown to when voting ends on that page would be helpful too, since it takes time to review the stuff we missed.
Thanks Jim, you've been a real trooper!

Exciting stuff! Will the sprucing include sub-categories or a filter so you can see just news posts or just art, etc? That wold be helpful.

I am against this as I always check the little star. Unless it would fuck something up by keeping it there I don't see the point of removing it at all.

@EJR too

How about you throw all the recent notifications in the star, and not just an artist feed? So let's say User1 reviews User2's audio submission. When User2 clicks the star, he will see a list of notifcations come up with "Review by User1" (colour-coded as green since it's an audio review) at the top. If User2 clicks on that it'll take him to his respective song page. At the very bottom of the notifications list there's a 'More...' button that links to this page. Perhaps when someone gets a new notification you can write down a '1' near the star icon or just highlight it or something.

A bit like Facebook's notification system. If there's one thing Facebook does right, it's that, and in fact other sites like SoundCloud have adopted it too.

Yeah, that sounds great! I was going to suggest moving it down next to Fans if the goal was to minimize what was in that top most button/nav area... but not having to click to the fp to get to it would be ideal! (Unless you get more ad monies that way, in which case, leave it! lol)

Yeah I'm actually fine with that.

That actually sounds really good considering all of the other buttons are not in-page. Keep up the great work guys, you're on a roll!

At least it's one step forward and one back, as opposed to one forward and two back!
