Title:
Add Tumblr to Other Sites in Profile

Area:
Profiles

Summary:
There are many sites you can add to your profile already so why not add Tumblr? It's a very popular site that many use.

Description:
This is a pretty easy thing to add. Just allow for tumblr to be added with the rest and it to link to the users tumblr on their profile.

Tumblr is very popular, especially for photo/picture blogging. It would make for easier following of friends tumblrs if they can be listed like the other sites via the profile.

I did check to make sure this wasn't already suggested so if it has and I missed it I apologise. :)

Title:
move journal title controls back to Edit Profile

Area:
Styles/Profiles

Summary:
Move the editing controls for journal title and subtitle from Edit Journal Style to Edit Profile.

Description:
Once upon a time on LJ, journal titles and subtitles were edited via the Edit Profile page, and everybody was happy. (There was a dark time previously when journal titles and subtitles didn't even exist, but we don't like to talk about those days.) However, one day For Some Reason those controls were moved to the Customize Journal Style page. Much consternation and confusion raged across the land, for the journal title and subtitle and in fact THE FIRST THING one sees on one's profile, so it seems pretty natural to want to edit it there; in fact, some journal styles hide the subtitle completely. WHY IS IT EDITED THERE. WHERE IS THE LOGIC. BUFFY QUOTE.

...cried the people.

Years later, Dreamwidth came to exist and forked off of LJ's existing code, and that was great. Even greater was the fact that DW was hard at work at correcting some of LJ's more questionable coding decisions. Great, great stuff. However, this fork included the illogical switch of title/subtitle control, and thus it still sits in Customize Journal Style, making way less sense than it would to be in Edit Profile.

Sadness, and also it just took me like two minutes to find because seriously, why is it there?!

I propose that Dreamwidth undo this illogical decision and restore title/subtitle to its rightful place under Edit Profile. The only drawback I see is that it may confuse people who have gotten used to it being under Customize; but since Edit Profile is really the natural place to look for it I think that will be the lesser confusion. Plus, there could be a link where that control used to be pointing people in the right direction (or at least that link to Customize could exist under Edit Profile so I never waste two minutes again). Also it might be hard to code or something. But probably it would be awesome and everybody would be happy again, and that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Title:
Move Delete Entry button away from Save Entry Button

Area:
edit entry page

Summary:
Move the Delete Entry button on the Edit Entry page so that it is not right next to the Save Entry button.

Description:
LJ recently made this small change so that the Delete Entry button is not right next to the Save Entry button on the Edit Entries page. Now, I know we're testing a beta Post Entries page, but I haven't seen the same for the Edit Entries page. If we're going to be using the Edit Entries page for a while, I'd like to see the Delete Entry button moved like it has been moved on LJ. This makes it much harder to delete an entry by accident. Of course, it would be great if it didn't change the tab order, either. Move the Delete button left, move it right -- the point is separating it from the Save Entry button better.

Title:
Rename "Upload Icons" to "Manage Icons"

Area:
Navigation

Summary:
Change the text of the "Upload Icons" link in the navigation to more accurately reflect the use for that page.

Description:
In the links, the link to manage icons is called Upload Icons. Other places where you can change things are called Edit and Manage. "Upload Icons" makes it sound like that's where you go to upload, but somewhere else to Manage them. I suggest the text of the link be renamed to "Manage Icons".
