  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/886403.html - The 'send this user a message' feature should also show the IP address, to discourage abuse by trolls. As refined in comments, should behave the same as the IP-address-logging options associated with one’s journal settings (i.e., the message sender would receive a notification that their IP address is being logged before they hit send), and should be able to be set in the same way one can control comments on one's journal.
  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/886081.html - Create a toggleable view option that is imageless for faster and/or more private work/school/public-location reading of LJ/DW. Would strip all userpics, posted images, layout customization, et al, leaving a text-only version of site that could then be easily switched off at the user's discretion, and would not affect their journal's default style/view settings.
Sounds like making the "mobile" sitescheme/etc. easily toggled would satisfy this one. We plan to create it anyway. Rickybuchanan 10:59, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Some of these are probably categorizable, but I'm not sure where. --Ursamajor 05:15, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/893954.html - Image placeholders. Applies across friends page and entries. Dre (need to find her userpage) points out that on-demand size detection is impractical especially for low-bandwidth readers (and would force images to go through DW's bandwidth for said detection, costing even more money), so the existing implementation of image placeholders is as good as it can be for now; still, upgrading the existing console command for customizing the placeholder size threshold to being in the settings would be lovely.
Major accessibility implications for putting captchas anywhere. Just Say No. Rickybuchanan 10:59, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
  • 'go to next post' and 'go to previous post' when browsing a journal should go to the next / previous post visible to the user. They should not, as on LJ, fail if that post is not visible to you.
  • Expanding on that, it should not be possible to see that there is a post that is not visible to you (or, at best, not without guessing the right URL - make these longer?) via next/previous post or the calendar or...
