attractive design  

Glad you like it.

Lots still need changing though so bare with (including current dimensions).

[CryptoMrM]

Updates:

- Minor bug fixes but required me rewriting a-lot of the architecture
- Dwables now have a 150 character limit (verified server side for now)

Will hopefully be opening some limited registration soon.

[J@soN]

Cool! Good luck dev,keep it up!!

[CryptoMrM]

Updates:

- Minor bug fixes
- Added a minimum 1 character Dwable requirement (server side)
- Added security features to verify users and 'guests' on actions (server side)
- You can now see who Redwabled a Dwable on your feed

No doubt this is a welcomed project, how do you intend to monetize it because pop up ads could easily get people annoyed, i will advise you not to be in a hurry to monetize your site until you have 1000 plus registered members.

Thanks. I've been receiving some nice support as of late

Yes ofc pop-up ads will never be considered.

I agree, monetization of the site is not a priority.

First things are building a community, making sure it's secure and adding features.

Updates:

- Pop-up Dwable info window partly completed.

Still need to hook up the javascript to the Like and Redwable buttons on the pop-up (these will function but not transition correctly).

Pop-up Dwable is limited to just the timeline and won't be available on any loaded in Dwables (e.g. loading new or old Dwables) or profiles until I transfer accross the finished code.

Some dimensions (e.g. font-sizes/colors/spacing) were also changed so these will need to be transferred as-well.

When clicked pop-up will change the url to "dwable". This will soon be changed to "dwable/[dwableid]".

Users viewing their own pop-up Dwable will not have the follow/report option.

This is also the first instance where the time of a Dwable is published.

Looks very cool ! I love this kinda thing. I wonder what options we will get to gather coin.  Its blog mining ^^ So for now I guess we build up out profile and await the release so we can earn coins ?

[Kyhm]

Very nice to start with..
Look so awesome..
Good luck mate!!


Just an advice..
Don't hurry to monetize your site, maybe just few but not overload, becaue it may irritate the users to start in your site.

[CryptoMrM]

Thanks for the support guys.

Unfortunately I've had and will continue having interviews most of this week.

Updates:

- Finally finished the pop-up Dwable window and applied it to all pages.

I was initially using a pre-written jQuery script but decided to re-code it myself to simplify it.

I also ran into a-lot of unexpected issues a-long the way which needed to be fixed (e.g. not to pop-up when like/redwable/text is clicked/highlighted & stop from loading content when clicked off and another Dwable clicked +more)

- The pop-up should also change the URL to https://dwable.com/status/12345

When you click off it will go back to /home or /userprofile.

Please note actual Dwable status pages haven't been developed yet so visiting https://dwable.com/status/12345 will result in a 404 error.

I've started work on a notifications page with the aim of releasing notifications for both likes and redwables initially.

Will update when finished

Nice six-letter neologism, bud. And nabbing the TLD .com to boot.

My current non-crypto project is a 5-letter neologism, also nabbing the .com.

Just briefly visited your site and it looks good. I'll spend more time on it later, bud.

Best of luck with your own thing.

Updates:

I was working on the notifications and realised it would be easier if users already had profile pictures.

So now..

- While editing profile users can now upload profile pictures seamlessly without refresh.
- The upload is automatically cropped to the correct 1:1 ratio.
- Before upload is completed users can use a cropping tool to edit their photo.

I've still got to add a display pop-up/modal for when the profile picture is clicked publicly. It's on my long to-do list.

In addition:

- The top central logo has been replaced by the "D" of Dwable thumbnail. This is intended to be less intrusive and also easier to integrate into smaller display devices.

Thanks!

---------------------------------------

Further updates:

- Applied new profile images accross all feeds and views.

Evening all,

I have completed the notifications page for Likes and Redwables!

It's currently not linked in the header so they can be viewed when logged into the demo at: https://dwable.com/notifications

I had a good think about the structure to use for the notifications and came up with the following:

- It will bunch all of your Likes/Redwables for any particular Dwable into one 24 hour period (specifically a day in UNIX) notification.
- After that day has passed, all new Likes/Redwables shall be in a separate notification.
- I decided that if you Like/Redwable a Dwable of your own it will not be included in the notification stream.
- If you're still confused just ask.

Currently I have only integrated historic scroll search through notifications. Therefore you will need to reload the page to see new notifications. Once all the different notification groups have been identified and coded in I will add the automatic update.

P.S the grey bar at the top is just a placeholder for now. In the future I intend to use it as a toggle between different notification type feeds.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

[CryptoMrM]

It would seem I have some competition but I'm glad others are also trying similar things:

Albeit Dwable plans to do a-lot more than enable free speech (trust me)

I've started development on replies and mentions. This is a big section so may take some time but I'm trying to speed things up.

After that's all done and I've polished off the current features, I intend to open registration (depending on whether I switch out or upgrade the current usersystem for security reasons).

As always I welcome any comments on direction/features/support.

Thanks!

Your Project Looks good so far and I will be sure to keep an eye on it.
Wish your project good luck.

[CryptoMrM]

I've contacted several media outlets today as part of very early, promotional efforts.

Ideally I'd like to stay focused on the development of the site.

Therefore I am asking if anyone with good management & marketing skills would like to join the team please message me.

The role would primarily be to handle press/marketing enquiries. You would be the first person to join the team.

Rewards include a significant share in any cryptocurrency or equity release in the future.

Having an impeccable reputation is an necessity.

Thanks
