9 years ago+10 10 0What happened to SNAPZINES?
I woke up this morning and made my usual visit to SNAPZU over coffee. Noticed the new Post button-very cool. But the something else was apparent -SNAPZINES got an overhaul. No more are they carefully arranged and categorised. Some Snapzites had curated an amazing collection of snaps. Now this seems to have been replaced by a saved list. Wondering what happened? Did I miss an announcement?

Why does MPD keep making its periodic comebacks, despite not being a verifiable or clinically useful mental disorder? My best guess is that the labeling of 'alters' offers an appealing and dramatic metaphor, an idiom of distress.

9 years ago+1 1 0The purpose of the down vote is about to change-how do you feel about this?
Just noticing how many Snapzites have appreciated the sparing nature of the snapzu down vote. Many have been sick to death of other sites where being down voted due to a simple difference of opinion is the norm. Unfortunately the snapzu down vote seems to be a misunderstood icon, whilst the rules of this site are somewhat different. This has led to various suggestions which has prompted a rethink by the admins. Changes are proposed that will allow, among other things, the down vote to reflect a difference of opinion rather than purely an indicator of rules being transgressed. I'm interested in a discussion amongst users about how they feel about this, what changes they really want and how they feel about anonymous downvoting.
