I would like an optional darker background and the ability to reset my time zone as I messed that up when I registered. I really enjoy this site and it has provided so much to my SWM experience. I disagree with some others about avatars and signatures. I like the simplicity of only a name, post count, and join date.

I hate to be nit-picky but if there is a way to fix the problem with the search page in FireFox. I didn't know it was just a FireFox problem, but someone else on here mentioned it. I tried it in Explorer and it actually works just fine. Not a huge problem because we can just use Explorer, but if it is a simple fix it would be nice.

Recently we have been having more squad building competitions. I've read through and don't remember seeing this one, it was talked about some before in the Bloo Milk Problems/Suggestions thread. In the squad builder, having the option of selecting which sets you'd like to use to build your squads from. I know in some of Fool's tournaments they take out, at random, one to two sets every other round. Makes it a challenge to build a decent squad with a limited set of figures.  Also on another note. I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow link the V-Set proxy figures to the ones in our collection? Meaning that to say if the AT-AT Driver is used in the future as a proxy for a V-Set mini. That the amount of AT-AT Drivers in my collection will show up as the same amount of mini's for that proxy V-Set mini as well. Not sure if this one is possible or not. Just a thought that crossed my mind.

It's a great site and a great resource for players. Keep up the good work!
In the past, while in the Search Characters function, the screen would show synergy providers and receivers. Now, it's a pop-up box that doesn't show synergies. We have to go over to Browse Characters to get that. I liked the old, less clunky way to search and view characters while mulling ideas while thinking of squad ideas.

Kill the Squad rating system altogether. Replace it with a "like" button. If you want to have the system count up the likes and give a list, fine. Only one "like" from accounts on the same IP is counted, the rest are ignored.

I just checked under the Top Squads link and it's filled with squads that placed or won in GenCon and regionals. I don't see a problem.
Edit:
Oh, I see the problem. If you go to 'my squads', the top squads listed there are completely different from what's on the 'top squads' link. The ones on the 'my squads' section should probably be re-named to 'hot squads' since it appears they're selected based on recent ratings/comments, not on overall ratings.

This thread is cleaned. Keep this on topic of what you want to see in a potential new site. If you have an issue with a post or poster, bring it up with a moderator, not on the forum.
