New Email Notification Feature Feedback!!!   

1. Fotki Comment Notification is a neat feature and is similar to facebook's popular notification system.

The default option should be user definable, so that a member can set it the way she or he wants and not have to click the box each time to always appear with or without a checkmark. A good place for this setting might be the Notification Section on the "My Account" page.

Note... Usually I and many others, would copy comment answers, responses or replies into the guestbook of the member who left a photo comment. This new feature would eliminate that step, but it is important to realize that the other person may have email notifications set to "off", and may not ever see the additional activity. Nothing to do about it, just a heads up...

2. I see that Fotki now includes all areas in the notification section:
New comments on my photos
New messages in my guest book
I am Friend of” list updates
About new messages in my journals
About new messages in my forums

Except Videos... add "New comments on my videos" to the list in the "My Account - Notification Section"!!!

Then that would complete the list for now...
The user definable feature of Yes/No ability gives everyone a choice and the frequency of notifications to ones email is cool.

3. There should be a "reply edit delete" for journal, forum and video comments just like there is for photo comments and guestbook entries!!!

4. I am sure I'll add some things but that's it for now '-)))
Take an asprin, I'll be back '-))) Gary
