l'm not trying to be picky, but l really liked it when each course was separated from the other one and had a pic just next to it, it looked more attractive and interesting for the user.
Quise escribir en un comentario algo referente a la RAE, y un agresivo mensaje rojo con letras blancas, bastante difícil de leer, apareció en mi pantalla para advertirme que gritar va en contra de las reglas de este foro.
Pero yo no estaba gritando. Me gustaría poder escribir acrónimos como RAE, EEUU, etc... en letras mayúsculas. Comprendo la regla, pero parece un poco excesiva... ¿podría limitarse un poco para permitirnos escribir al menos 4 caracteres en mayúsculas?
When you look up a word, the examples are written in grey, it's so hard to read them all and to distinguish an example from another, also they are written just next to each other so l was wondering why not separate each one from the other??
l'm so bored of my profile pic! l wanna change it but l can't! It doesn't change!
There is no clear separation on the PMs regarding the message you are receiving and the one you are writing yourself, very confusing at times, as if this is a longer conversation, the messages get all mixed up.
One possible solution is to put a double line in between the messages, at least this makes reading easier:
----------------------
Below the line the old message, above the new message.
A quien corresponda:
La palabra del día:
Idealmente, debería estar escrita sin faltas de ortografía; y las frases que ilustran su uso deberían estar escritas por una persona que sepa escribir en correcto español.
La traducción de la página al español:
Debería estar hecha también por un hablante nativo en lugar de ser una traducción automática, que genera párrafos confusos y sin sentido. Mientras la página no esté traducida correctamente, sería mejor eliminar la opción de ver Spanishdict en español.
Las lecciones:
Deberían ser revisadas cuidadosamente por uno o varios hablantes nativos, puesto que son un recurso didáctico destinado a estudiantes de español.
Los nuevos quizzes:
Idem. Puesto que son recursos didácticos, no deben tener faltas de ortografía. Las preguntas y respuestas han de estar escritas en español correcto. Los contenidos y conceptos que pretenden enseñarse no deben ser confusos, ni inducir al estudiante a error.
Nota: Me consta que muchos usuarios de esta página, hablantes nativos, han hecho sugerencias en cuanto a mejoras en estos aspectos, tanto en abierto como mediante la herramienta feedback, o dirigiéndose personalmente al personal encargado de crear y colgar el material. Estas sugerencias deben ser escuchadas y tenidas en cuenta, y agradecidas convenientemente.

1 ) Avatars are so tiny they may as well not be there.
2) That wide open space to the right should contain , who did what , and who earned what , otherwise we have no idea what is happening on the site, we are flying blind ,there is no connection anymore.
Next to my name in top right corner it would be nice if I could see if I had any PMs waiting for me. 
I like to use the English version of this website and now I only can see the courses of "Learning Spanish". Why can't I access to English courses ? I want to learn English, not Spanish!!! Is it neccesary to work in the Spanish version to acces to English courses? Why? I am fed up of reading in Spanish!!!
****Forget it, I've just realized that you can acces it despite the button says "Learn Spanish". Maybe the title is a bit confusing...
Profile info cannot be filled in or added, a newbie just stated that he tried to fill in his profile info.
Oh I can not edit my profile . I do not know what is the matter !!!! - adspanish
I'm finding that when I vote the number doesn't always change. The green vote/unvote words change but the point isn't given so you have to click a couple of times. This could be just my problem but you might want to verify that your vote was counted before leaving the page.
Did anyone notice that the forum front page doesn't show the Category for each question? I thought it used to, on the old site.
For example, it's useful to see that a question is a "Proof reading" and I know right away that I am either interested or that I know I can't help, anyway.
I hate the bright shiny background! It makes it hard to read and the pale grey colour print is unreadable. Background colour is really, really easy to add! A nice one would be the off-white known, I believe as 'vellum' , frequently used for writing paper..
Yesterday when I tried to correct a previous answer it was impossible, the Spanish letters didn't come up in 'edit'and the machinery wouldn't accept the system I use...
Also , there is no 'preview of the answer, like there used to be.
You know where it tells you "how long ago" a question was posted, ie "hace 26 minutos" - I'd like that to be in a more prominent position - for the original posting I mean. I feel it's kind of lost-in-the-shuffle of, you know, "history/flag/editar" - or maybe it's just a trick-of-the-light on my behalf. Maybe it could go (on the left hand side) below the two windows (avatar and number of votes); or perhaps even directly under the original quesiton (somehow...). Or if it has to stay alongside the "others" perhaps it could be a different colour...
Just a suggestion - becuase I'm always lagging behind (so to speak) I'm always interested in how "old" a thread is ....
I would really like to be able to "edit" my comments.
