So this is my first blog since the redesign of Tv.com(note: I am posting this from Tv.com. I have been using Google Chrome for a little while, so I haven't been able to use the editor since before the redesign because Chrome doesn't accept the editor or something like that). I have to say, I really don't mind the change. Now saying that doesn't mean I like the change, I am just not bothered by it as a lot of other people are. But it was stupid of them not to beta the site first. Extremely stupid. Anyways, I am used to the white background since a lot of sites I browse/browsed have white backgrounds. The bugs are to be expected, they're not building off site already like this like they did with the first redesign, although a beta could've helped avoid some of these bugs. I have been watching the feedback forum and I feel that some of those topics should have been locked or deleted and the users given a TOS. The board is for feedback from users on the site, not a place for users to make cracks about the site and complain about the same thing over and over again.

With all that said, I did accurately predict that the site would have a lot of bugs after the redesign. And after reading all the complaints and other things, ZI can't help but replay one of Cortana's quotes from Halo 3; "This is the way the world ends".

Oh, before I forget. If you are confused on how to work with the new Tv.com, check out more_ncis_now's thread "Working with TV.com Wide - The new layout.
{Edit}Just saw this over at maritimers00's blog, when you accidentally double post or hit submit with a blank message, here is the message that comes up: Please do not submit blank messages. You are such a jerk! LMAO


So what's been new with me? Nothing much. Still looking for a new job. I know now that if someone says they can definitely get me a job, go apply and don't expect much. Well that's what I have determined since two different people told me they could get me a job and I went and applied at both places only to not even get called in for a job interview. It may be different with other people, but I really am not going to expect much.


No need for replies to comments from my last blog. I already a replied to them under my last blog.


Got another image from pixiv. last if you are reading this it's another pic of Hatsune Miku. lol


This one was done by bob (You must have account to view full image)

Well time for me to get off, I guess Calintz(my cat) wants to use the computer. He's got his paw on the Touch Pad and is just staring at me, lol. Adios. ☆

The xHTML tag change with no warning may be prove to be the biggest long term bug especially for Quote submissions...

Yeah I see you don't mind it I don't hate it like everyone else I'll have to agree with you.

Sorry I'm one of the one's that totally hates the new look. I'll try not to be as voicestrus and wine as much as other ppl, but I really don't see how I could get used to it. Beta might have helped. I haven't run into any bugs though. 'Bout yer cat, that's funny. I didn't think you had pets.

yeah having to change over to strong and em isn't fun, although if you have a text editor you can use replace

Eh, the redesign leaves something to be desired...not to mention the fact that it's harder to navigate around the site. Ha, there doesnt need to be a reason for glitches...they are always waiting to happen.

Well good luck finding a job.

maritimer: That may be true. The runner up will most likely be the ability to Accept and Reject.

DarkKnight313: Not everyone hates it, their just being overly dramatic about not liking certain things. Especially the background color.

lyoko: It's mostly the users who are less than a month old who are whining a lot. I feel that if you are not older then 3 months, then you got no reason to complain. I saw 1 user complaining to the nilla_chelle, who joined 10 days before the redesign, I was thinking the entire time, while reading their comment, "you have no clue what the original site could do, shut the **** up". With that said, it's not all the newer users that are annoying me, there are a few older ones annoying me too. Especially one user. The beta would not have "might have helped" it "would have helped". I posted a blog a little while ago about having one.

Angus: Really doesn't bother me since I was starting to use strong and em tags more then the other tags.

YNB: LMAO
The older site proved that point several times.

I downloaded Google Chrome today, and it's faster than firefox 3 O_O
I wonder what cool features they have on here.

I'm not fan, this staff says the listened to us but they didn't. There was no point for this layout. The old one was fine.

Yeah if you're a new user, get over it You haven't had the other three versions to know what's really going on. I always say this, "Newer is not always better."

Hiyono: You are the only person I have heard feedback from. Everyone else probably ignored what I said about it.

lyoko: You can be wrong with that. There are a lot of this newer that are better.
Posted Sep 23, 2008 6:48 pm PT
To be honest, I preferred the darker color tones of the old tv.com over the new, brighter ones. I also expected a lot of bugs, so I won't bother complaining about them.

Agree with you on the feedback forum.

I don't think looking for a job is that much fun. Luckily I got a job as a part of my school's very unique education program =D

I decided to give Google Chrome a try today, and so far, it seems very good. As Hiyono said, it's faster than Firefox, which is a plus. I haven't found it to be worse than Firefox in any way, so I'm using it as my standard browser for now.
