Snap Shots

Postby Spack » Mon Sep 24, 2007 11:16 am

I've had Snap Shots on the site for a while now - if you hover a link to an external site you get a pop up preview window showing what the page looks like before you click.

I've now adjusted this to remove the little icons next to all the links (it was getting messy in some posts), and on the home page at the bottom right there is now a little iframe for turning the Snap Shots on and off - by default they are off. If you want them on again, just click the little link to enable them and they'll be back.

Ooops. It'll be on the home page, bottom right hand side. Or do you think it'd be better to have it on by default, and let people turn it off from the snap shot dialog?

I really like the feature...I think it is a nice addition and wouldn´t mind it being on by default...

"The needs of the many ... blah blah". Well that's 4 votes (including mine), so it's going back on by default :)

Don't feel stupid - I'd enabled it for Admins only (ie. me!) for testing, and forgot to turn it on for everyone until I read the 2 posts from you and Tim *cough* :oops:
