Hello Everyone,

Below are numerous suggestions with descriptions. I figured one concise forum post might be better than numerous posts. I hope that you will all comment with ideas and feedback.

Film Deviation Revamp: Stills
Currently when submitting a film via sta.sh, there is no way to edit the still frames that are chosen (this was available in normal submission). I would like to propose that a way to alter the images is brought back, or, alternately allow users to upload their own film stills.

Film Deviation Revamp: Credits
It would be nice if in the sidebar, a deviant could list credits of major roles (director, producer, DP, key grip, gaffer, editor, sound mixer, composer at minimum) and then have these available with real names, but still be able to link to either deviantART profiles OR off site-websites/IMDb pages/etc. This would allow small films to allow exposure for their crew whether on or off deviantART.

Film Deviation Revamp: Embed
I would really like to see an embed option added to films. This would be for embedding on deviantART, as well as a way to embed off-site if possible.

Groups: Warnings for New Groups
In the past two weeks or so, I have received numerous questions from deviants who ask "Why can't deviants join my group?" and "Why can't members submit to this gallery in my group?". I believe there is a simple fix. There should be a bubble that pops up for the contributors of a group on a gallery page when it is not open to all members, warning that some classes cannot submit with a link to the manage members page to change these settings. A similar bubble should appear if "Member" requests are closed.

Journal Management
it has come to my attention that journals are still incredibly hard to manage. I have detailed a system in the past that I thought would be excellent for journals, but it would take a lot of implementation. In the mean time, I believe that there should be a simple way to delete multiple journals at once. A check box system (when you click "manage journals" for example, could be the easiest way)

Locking Journals
I have a number of old journals that are just...out-dated, but I would love to keep them as an archive. If possible, it would be great to include a way to lock, or suspend comments on journals just as is done in forums. If options for how soon to lock an "inactive" journal could be added as well that would be excellent.

Message Center: Username Changes
An option to turn username changes off or on in your message center would be lovely.

Message Center: Forum Posts
I would love to have a way to get forum posts in groups to be pushed to my notification center. I know in some groups this would be a hassle, so if there could be an option to turn this on and off for a group, this would be FANTASTIC.

Forum Emoticons
As I am writing this I noticed how not straight the forum emote list for the post is... Why not straighten that our or even consider compressing it? Reference: [link]

Thank you for your time, and I hope that some of these come back and help!
