We have been making small improvements to the system for some weeks now, and as of today, they have been deployed throughout the Propeller community.

Notifications fall into the following categories:

Member Activities: Related to your own activities on Propeller, these notifications contain your submissions, props, comments, replies and props on your submissions

Group Activities: Related to activities within groups you are a member of, this notification tells you about stories submitted to any of your groups

Private Messages: Tells you about any new messages you have received on Propeller

Week in Review: Weekly summaries of the latest and greatest on Propeller by James Marcus

News about Propeller: Occasional updates about the Propeller web site

In your Propeller settings area, there is a "Manage Notifications" page, available here. On it, you can manage your preferences for each type of notification message, choosing to be notified (or not), the method (via email or Propeller's messaging system) and the frequency (immediate, daily, weekly).

      I noticed some of the changes, but didn't know there were that many! Very cool. Thanks Tom!

        i like the new window design. To be honest it stands out. But I think we old members should be able to share a story with more than 25 friends. Like most of us only sub really good news, so it is time consuming sending 1 by 1. Also the send feature has a bug, even if you click 25 times randomly in a blank space it counts it as 25 selected friends..

        if you could fix that..
        thanks

        One little thing. Does this mean that the props, comments and submits will not be eaten by the system anymore? If not - is there any explanation?

        cool. how about removing the script that deletes your comment as spam if you happen to reference two or more links in your comment?

        i mean, what spammer sends 2 links to a different place in their comment?

        Can we get direct access to the server tables?
        I would like the ability to update certain records without having
        the fuss and bother of a user interface.

        Also I would like to colorize my profile;
        also I want to insert the occasional dynamic javascript into my comments;
        or at least goppy's comments or maybe tehranchik's depending.

        Also I want an animated Gif icon.

        Just asking.

          Propeller has gone through many changes. Most have not improved anything.
