One thing I think you should do is making a box that says "mark all as viewed" in the dashboard section so you don´t have do click everyone if you haven´t been in on WAM for a while.

Peoples listing

That is a fine feature.

BUT when I tried to sort the peoples list by location, it gives me the people first that have not written any location to their profiles. And therefore it is not very useful information. I have to start the browsing from the last pages if I want some valuabe information about where everyone is located.

There is something to develope there to improve the usability.

Previews

It would be nice if you could have a preview option before you post news, a task, shot or comment. That way you can see if you got the formatting and links right.

Also, you can make a bold asterisk by typing five of them.
Normal *
Inclined *
Emboldened: *

But what if you want to write five or three asterisks?

Overview change on first page

I'm thinking that overview on the first page is not very practical. I mean you only see the last four changes/additions. Then you have to scroll to see the rest.
It would be great if could have a list or that you only see the changes since your last visit.
An altervative a list could also be a list with all changes to one project bellow the pictures. The people might only click on the stuff they see on the first page, and less popular projects, become even less popular, because they are never or only birefly showed on the first page.

Closing comments

It would be nice to be able to close the comments when you've read them. A simple 'Close comments' link next to the 'Jump to comment form' -link should do the trick.

When there are more than a couple of comments, it's tedious to scroll past them when viewing tasks. When i've watched other people browse the site for the first time, they seem to be intuitively looking for a way to close them.

66 Tasks matching your wreckupations?!?

I think the "task matcher" in "mywreck" is a little too trigger happy lately. Do I really want a list of 66 tasks? Not really ;-)

I mean it's not really a bug, but it's not too user friendly either. What about only including tasks that are NEW? At least it could exclude tasks I set up MYSELF... Just an idea ;-P

But, as always; Keep up the good work :D

Cheers,

Slooooooooow.... ?!?

Not sure if this is the right task but...

WAM has become painfully slow in the last days! Not when browsing, only when posting... Once you try to submit a form, it takes ages and more often than not, nothing ever happens again. Strangest thing is, if you load that same page in another browser, your submitted changes already appear - but in the window you posted in, nothing really happens... Except for a message like "waiting for www.wreckamovie.com" or something on the bottom.

Is it just me? I've tried it from differenent terminals with different providers, browsers and IPs...?

Thanks for listening,
Kalle Max :-)

Testing the speed...

This is just a test shot.

Editing production before publishing it

Adding production feature is missing possibility to edit newly added production before publishing it. Therefore user has to add all details at once, which is not very good, since user does not know the asked questions before going thru the whole add production wizard.

This could be fixed by adding next to Publish button an Edit button, which starts the wizard again showing the data entered last time.

Losing form entries

I just wrote a long description of my first experience with WAM, submitting it only to find out that I had been logged out in the meantime. When going back in my browser (IE7) history to the form entry page, it was immediately reloaded and replaced with a version saying I had to log in, and the text I had entered was thereby lost to me. I should have written it in a separate editor rather than directly in the browser.

Would it be possible not to trigger reloading of form pages in situations like this one? Maybe you could even allow previously logged in users to submit form entries they have been allowed to begin entering? If the problem is specific to certain browsers (such as IE), maybe you can simply warn users about it? I normally use Firefox, but I haven't tried it in this situation on WAM.

I hope to be able to relate my first experience with WAM some other day. You deserve it for providing such a nice collaborative environment behind a formidable roadblock that, initially, almost made me give up on you.
