PRO Supporter flair and Private Message notifications

[matt]

Hello all,

I just pushed out a few updates:

#1. In an effort to highlight our VGCollect PRO supporters, you'll now see some flair on the Collection, Wish and Sell Lists pages up near the user names. I also updated the forums so that you'll also now see some flair in the forums for Pro supporters.

#2. One thing that has always bothered me is that I would never notice if I have a PM unless I was already in the forums. This has been corrected and now you'll have a new messages icon site-wide in the top right portion of the screen. This will highlight itself if you have an unread message. This feature is now in testing and only available for PRO users. We'll roll it out side-wide in a few days after we are sure it is bug free.

That is all for now. I'm still going through and cleaning up some of the remaining bugs. As always I'll keep updating forum threads as I go. I really appreciate all of the feedback, bug reporting, suggestions and especially support over the last 2 weeks! This has been a fun launch!

Thanks,
Matt

Hey it actually works!

I can't seem to get it working for us admin who are also in VGC PRO. Still researching that.

Cool!
Edit: Is anyone else missing the colored bar that is usually under the member status (Full member Sr. Member, etc.)?  Under all VGCPro accounts there is only one bar on my screen.

Nice!

I wanted to see mine too!

Isn't the "PRO" over our member status both redundant (what with the big-ass "PRO" SUPPORTER", and all), and just...not aesthetically pleasing -OR- is that just me?

I don't know, it doesn't bother me. And it catches the eye so that people will ask about the "pro supporter thing", I guess!

Sweet!

So my message icon is yellow, but I have no new messages ;o

[scott]

Yup, yellow icon for me and no new messages.

Did admin's lose some flair? I remember the administrator under their names standing out for some reason.

I think it's the same as before although I am looking into a way to high light us.
