Yea this has been suggested previously. I can't recall if there was ever any outcome to the discussion or not ("yes we'll get around to it" or "no we won't add it") but I like the concept

has viewing post histories been removed?

Only for members. When I checked the forum at uni a week ago, I wasn't logged in and could see post histories just fine, but the button goes away when you log in.

I wonder if they'll be GD.net approved video tutorials in the future.

I know this place is for suggestions, but I just wanted to say that I love the redesign of the front page. I actually read a few articles/dev journals when I only intended to kind of lurk on the forums for a few minutes. It's great to see that even though the site is good enough as it is, you guys keep trying to make it better. Thanks.

I agree. Before this whole article push, I never even looked at the front page. I just immediately clicked "New Content" and skipped the front page. But now with all the articles being linked on the front page, I've actually looked at and read the front page and click on several articles to read.

my only criticism of the front page is that it's beginning to feel a bit crowded. other than that, it's defiantly a mark improvement.

I think the difference between this and the older site, is that at least it's not all crowded up at the very top. I mean, I was fine with all that but people also argued it was a bit overwhelming. Now you have a lot on the page but it's just articles up top... scroll down and there's some journals, scroll down and there's some tabbed content... nothing on the sidebars has changed so far. So at least it's a more gradual crowding?

I'm actually glad the featured journals on are on the front page - the journal listing has an annoying bug that doesn't actually keep the featured entry linked at the top - if I feature an entry and the person posts a newer one, that's the link that ends up being featured at the top of the journal listing - like I'm featuring their whole journal instead. You can see it now - go to the journal listing and you'll see ApochPiQ's journal "Epoch Release 14 Shipped" at the top when on the front page you'll see I actually featured his previous entry "Epoch Plans for the Future"
