I am thrilled you can search and filter at the same time now. That was the only thing missing for me. Thanks! |

Good to know the wait was worth it! (Though it usually is, anyways.) Thanks for the updates...I've been wanting some of those features on this site for a while. |

A useful update, but I personally do not like how the search bar on the left takes up so much of the screen. I would prefer it to be narrower (like it was before - if possible). |

eedgan, It's only 100 pixels larger, and pretty much everybody has pretty high resolution monitors nowadays, plus there are other reasosn for making it the size it is. So, it'll stay the size it is. |

If you use the old download view, the column "Title / Section / Category" is too small now (it's almost always in 2 rows now), you should rather make "Last Posts" smaller. |

There seem to be some downloads lacking when using the filter & search. I typed something and I swear, I saw one download the last time I used the search but this time it disappeared. It never got deleted, modified or anything. |

silenthill: Without actual links or search terms to verify that, it's pure conjecture and assumption. |

Umm.... While I was working on uploading something, Firefox alerted me to a problem on the page. Not sure if this is on your end or mine, but I've never seen it before and I haven't been messing around with my web browser lately, so it might be related to your changes. Here's a screen shot of it -> http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/...pg?t=1194367091 Happens every time I'm on the preview page of an upload. |

I actually get similar results as silenthill. I'm not saying that this is a bad update since so many people seem to like it (and I don't want to get on anyone's bad side) but is there anywhere I can go to search the old way? It's just something I'm used to and I don't get many results when using the new search and filter feature. |

The "old" search works in exactly the same way as this new one. Seriously. Exactly the same code. The only additions are to also search and filter on types of downloads. If you don't see all downloads it's becuase you are either searching using Compatibility mode, or you haven't selected All Downloads. |

I like being able to search and filter. I do have one question though. Is there anyway to mark what you've downloaded? |

tootsie, check the User Tools dropdown. There is an item for My Downloads. Tells you what you have downloaded. |
