Love VIRB so far. Very new.

Love virbtunes. Been using last.fm iscrobbler, and it is a pain. Have to quit and relaunch it all the time, to get my track to show up on last.fm.

I'm a bit worried that all my listening data will get trapped on virb though. Easy to get the data in, but I don't see any easy way to get the data out. Be nice to have an RSS feed for the data. One feed each for recent, top songs, top artists, and top albums.

I'm not a blogger, but it doesn't look like the blog has a feed either...

Hi!

Every time I try to play with basic custonization in Internet Explorer I experience the following problems:

1. This little window with colours works very very slow
2. Every time I finish customizing a message appears in the middle of the screen which says: do you really want to exit this window?

Please fix it. Thank you!

Thanks, firefox is much better! =)

Chris says:

Opera is faster, takes less resources than Firefox and is the most secure browser these days. And it has functions Firefox can only do with multiple extensions. So i wouldn't say Firefox is "better". i use both for different things...

Netscape works great.. its a small 5Mg download, and even has a Spell check.. pretty great, for theses little text inserts.. it checks my spellin so me spelling arent off... now they need grammar check...

but in IE you can always try resetting your Browser in the Internet Tool's this will remove any configuration that you might have installed, a active x plugin might have adjusted to make sort of small xml/DOM errors inside the Internet Exploiter.. sorry.. Explorer..

Netscape also doesn't leave cookies an other temp files in your temp when you close the browser(if configured correctly),
unlike Internet Exploiter, that allows web domains to keep track, an keep a prolonged cookie inside of the browser..

You can get you Netscape 9.0.0.5 from http://browser.netscape.com/

It is only 5 mgs download, and very easy to use, very quick, and very secure

You should be able to easily set a background image from "Basic Styles" instead of having to use advanced customization.

cheers!

first: thanks to the team who coded virb.com, it rocks very much and is definately a lot better than *caugh* that other *caugh* website.


i have some problems customizing..
i already switched to 'advanced customization', now i don't know how to change attributes in the 'interests' section.
(i put stuff that i'm interested in in custom modules, so that's basically fine, but) the search function doesn't search for stuff in custom modules, does it?
also i don't understand why search function doesn't search for parts of search strings.
for example - if i tag a photo "through the viewfinder" searching for "viewfinder" apparently doesn't bring any results.


i hope all this hasn't been asked before,
thanks for your help and have a nice day !

ps: and when is virb 2.0 about to come, anybody knows ??

What you can do is dump a bunch of stuff in a custom module and call it 'interests'. Then you can format it how you like from advanced customization. To make sure your interests appear in the search you can edit the actual personality module and fill it up with all your tags and then hide it with some CSS.

lneogeol says:

thanks fyorl, i'll try that.
editing and hiding tags in the actual personality module seems to be the best way, i'll see if my css skills suffice!

thanks a lot!

Could you probably let personal profiles upload their own muic since there aren't many band profiles like lets say.....the pixies?

That would be kind-of against the law, and land Virb Inc. in trouble! So I doubt we'll see that.

Yes, it may well be hetero, but that's how things work I am afraid.

Hetero indeed...not that there's anything wrong with that.

When you go to Friends at your Home when you click on their picture, you should be able to leave comment, send message, and invite to group right from there. (In the little pop up box that says "Go to Profile" and "Advanced Edit"

You will be seeing all these in some form or another in Virb v2.0

FuzzAlliance says:

Two suggestions (I am new to Virb, so please forgive me if these have already come up):

1. I think it would help general site navigation quite a bit to have a dropdown of some sort under the "Your Home" button. So I can be looking at someones profile and jump right to my friends or groups with a single click rather than having to navigate through the back end.

2. Set some sort of status on group posts so posts that are receiving comments stay "active" while others become "inactive" and drop to the bottom. It might also be nice to have a link list of active posts on the top/side so you can easily navigate to them to continue your conversation and/or check for replies. Basically making group discussions more like a forum than a comment list.

Johann Lau says:

Both good ideas, although I actually hope groups will get some kind of forum feature a la my.opera.com (

edit: hmm, seems like everything beyond the "lesser than" sign got cut off... I was also saying "{--- which really rocks in that respect, as much as I hate to say it :D)"

Fyorl says:

When Virb 2 comes out, groups will be much more like forums.
