RE: The Steemit Wish List - Avatars, Notifications, Multi-Language Support, and More - Oh, My! (v2.0)

in #steemit-ideas8 years ago

Very thorough list! Would definitely love the ability to save multiple drafts, schedule a time to post, bookmark/save posts within Steemit, follow certain tags/topics, have the ability to edit/be more selective with content that you do follow, and receive notifications on the site and pushed to phones/app.

Would also add the following for photos/videos (apologies in advance if they were included but I missed them!):

--simple editing features such as cropping and ability to resize images and videos within Steemit so I don't have to do that with another editor (the resizing one is a big one for me...maybe there is a capability and I just don't know how to do it (this would not surprise me), but uploading photos to editors, saving them to computer/phone, uploading to a photo storage site to include a link into Steemit is such a time suck)
--to that end, there could be set sizes, small-extra large to select as well as the ability to specify pixel dimensions
--easily select left, center, or right alignment
--select if you want a photo/image to be on its own line (text just above or below) or if text can be wrapped around a left or right centered image
--"caption" button on toolbar with standardized text size/style that is small and is spaced very closely under the image so people can add a caption or attribution
--not sure how feasible this is, but add a collection of copyright-free images that people can select from on Steemit (maybe users add any they use in posts to start this collection -- any found not to be truly free for use could be flagged/removed -- or search feature that somehow taps into an aggregate of free image sites)

Other:
--a few font styles, colors, and sizes to choose from and ability to select just a few words within a sentence to alter
--like with photos, easy ability to select left, center, or right alignment for text

Again, I'm sure there is capability for many of these, especially if someone is familiar with Markdown, but I'd love a more robust toolbar in Editor to make it easy for the tech-challenged folks like myself. Thanks!

Great suggestions! I added most of them to the list. A few were already there :)

They did add a way to do this recently, but it requires some 'expert' markdown skills. I'm not sure how it is done myself, but I have seen posts where people have used it. You could try searching through the existing markdown guides that are out there, and see if there are any good instructions.

If you haven't already, you should try pixabay.com in the meantime :)
