Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't a few of those new improvements already in effect? Even so, I hope they're pretty good improvements.

Sounds good - these are features that I have in another site I belong to and they are really great. I especially will enjoy the font size and the strikethrough - love playing with that one and helps whey you are saying something tongue in cheek.
Yes I look forward to there immensely

Thank you in advance DS.

Be nice to see these same improvements when you post on a thread:)

Just saw they were added cant wait to journal, and that would be great if we had options for post and reply's, it would probably take me to long to write then, i would want to get all fancy

Hey..I just realized that post was made YESTERDAY...................OH BOY..I'm gonna go journal and see whats up:):)

suggestion: when a journal is archieved, you can still see the title, not the date. Thank you for these improvements.

I have tested these new features out and they are wonderful.
The fonts (not a large selection but better) the size - wonderful and much needed- the strike through, the colour (love the palette), the highlight, the characters.

I did however have two big problems. when I went to save it only 2/3 - 3/4 of the journal posted the first time and even less when I tried to do it the second time. And in the bits that did post letters were missing making the whole things useless and I have had to delete it.

Please check your journals after you save them to make sure that they are actually OK.

Hope this problem can get sorted ................ PLEASE?

Test

VERY buggy. Change Font size and/or color and difficult to undo changes. Turn on features .. hard to turn them off. Many bugs.

Buggy here too. I used #4 when I typed my journal and it didn't save. I went back in to edit, changed to #4 and it saved. We shouldn't have to edit to make it work right.

And, worst of all.... it no longer accepts ANY of the formatting (color or font or font size) done in Word when copied & pasted like it used to. :-(

Many of us do our journals in a WP program and copy to DS journals because DS hiccups all the time and LOSES whatever we're typing at the moment. This happens A LOT.

Someone just told me she was having problems with her new journal features..........turned out "scripts" which she has to block Meebo was also blocking the journals????????

Whoever here said something about fixing was right.I tried to "fix" something in my journal and it just wouldn't let me?????????

So......do it right the first time, cause there is no going back.....LOL

Nope, copy and paste from Word does not hold format. The largest size font I know some of my friends will still have trouble seeing. 18 pt here is not the same as 18 pt in other places.

My comment was removed from a post of Oz's. Thought this was a site to offer support.

Really getting fed up and burned out with DS.
