Website suggestions for improvement

Hello everyone and thanks Chainer for unlocking in the forum. As agreed, a few comments about the really great website.

The thoughts and ideas all reflect my own opinion, everyone can have a different opinion.

I think the site could use a new "modern" design, something that is more responsive.
I also think that the chat could be revised, it is often difficult with the numbers and leads to many "errors". A new, fresh design and implementation would not be bad here either.

I also have 2 filter ideas.
On the one hand, to install the national flag of every muscle woman, one could also look for women from certain countries. A drop-down menu could be built in and users can then select the country.
Furthermore, I do not know whether it is desired, but you could also include the social media channels on the overall profile of the muscle women, Instagram in particular is gladly taken by us all.
Now you could of course also consider whether you should change the design of the individual profiles of women, but that would be too much of a good thing.

I spontaneously remembered the following: It would also be nice if there was an option for users to connect with each other on the page, with friend requests or similar

I know that such implementations are not always easy and cost time, but I think that it could improve the site again significantly.

I thank you for your interest and apologize for my English

I agree with BHL21, the social media link in particular would be a fantastic addition since many of these girls have IG profiles that are rather difficult if not impossible to find due to them annoyingly not mentioning their own name within their IG biography, or some other easily searchable marker, for instance.

 It would also help other site members "pick the profile dry" so to speak, since few of us can realistically scroll through their entire media and upload all their worthy content. 

Just my two cents.

I get the impression that a lot of these girls want to remain anonymous, hence why a lot of them have requested to not be featured on this site.  I know we have methods of finding out their real names (especially if they are known to compete, it's not hard at all) but these "anonymous" girls don't usual anticipate people finding out their identities.  Whether or not one considers it to be naive on their part for believing they could remain anonymous on the internet is an entirely separate issue.  Also this site is known to have its fair share of openly perverted types who comment and chat about girls as if they're browsing a porn site, and I think some of these girls realize that and don't want themselves exposed to that.

Having said all that, I personally wouldn't object to any of the suggested changes.  As for whether of not Chainer implements any of it, that's up to him of course.  I suggested a few changes to the Home Page not long ago, and his responses could offer you some insight into his mindset.

Even if it's my "idea", I don't think the anonymity perspective is wrong. Of course, you always have to see both sides of the coin. But I don't want us to just stiffen up on this one Instagram idea. And we all want to have a great side here, so we have to work with each other and not against each other :)

I've thought about creating a way to link instagram accounts to women's names on here. The main reason I haven't done it is because there are some issues and edge cases I haven't figured out how to handle.

The most straightforward way to do it would be to just have another field under each image for an instagram link, and then it would work more or less exactly the same as the current name field does. But this would mean that for any given person, you'd have to edit all of her pictures one by one to fill in the instagram link. This would be super tedious and it's unlikely people would go and backfill the links for all the existing pictures. Then there's the case where the model changes her instagram handle, at which point we would again have to update all the links manually, potentially hundreds of them. This could be simplified by giving the site staff a "batch edit" tool to update a given instagram handle all at once across the site (we have a tool like this for name changes already) but this still creates a lot of potential toil.

As an improvement to the above, one idea I had was that whenever someone enters or changes an instagram handle for a woman under a picture, the site would try to auto-propagate that to all of her other pictures. This has two major issues I can think of: first, this is challenging for pictures with multiple women, as the site would have to know exactly whose instagram handle you're updating out of all the people in the picture in order to correctly be able to propagate it to her other pictures. Second, there's the fail case of having multiple different women with the same name, which, although rare, I haven't thought of a good way of dealing with. There's also the case where we only know someone's first name along with the instagram handle, which isn't enough information to be able to propagate it across the site.

So in short, I haven't done it yet because I haven't figured out a good way to do it. The first way creates a ton of work but the second way has a lot of issues with edge cases, some of which are not even rare (multiple women in a picture). If you can think of a way to do this that avoids these issues, let me know.


Given that we already have full names on here when we can find them, I don't think having an instagram handle in addition to that would really be any more invasive of their privacy. The instagram handles are usually easy to find once their full name is known anyway.


Can you give examples of what you mean? I did a full site redesign 2 years ago and am not doing another full redesign anytime soon, but maybe there are small things that can be changed.


I agree that the PM system is difficult to use. Another way of doing it would be having tabs, or popup windows, for each private conversation. This would definitely benefit PMs but I'm worried it would impact the health of the public chat (which is already pretty poor) as people spend even less time looking at it. With the current system at least public messages are hard to miss.

This problem has a solution! You can create a profile page for the models and there put the links of social networks and other data.
In GWM we already have something similar. If you click on the name of a user like tempp for example, it sends you to a route /user/tempp/ and there you have several data such as its total score in GWM. Below is a section for him uploaded and favorite photos.
The problem is that in GWM almost no model uploads its own photos, so they don't have a user account. But you could reuse the user profile code and create a specific page profile for models (something like /model/Gracyanne-Barbosa/) and in that place useful data and a section with her photos, such as the "uploads" or "favorites" of the user profile.
Some useful data ideas:

It would also be good if the models had a profile picture, as in other websites. You could put her photo with high score.

• Links to social networks.
• Nationality
• Age.
• Total photos in GWM.

I take this opportunity to say that the GWM chat seems simply horrible and I really don't understand what utility it can have to justify the effort of its maintenance. I think it would be more practical to make it a separate page like this form. You could create a group in riot: https://about.riot.im/ It would be the easiest and safest.

That's a good idea, to put the instagram info on a model's search page. I might do that.


There's a lot of value to having a page that's integrated into the main site, and you can just go there and it works. No creating other accounts, etc.

OK, then I'll take a position on it again.

@Chainer: I understand if you say after 2 years you don't want a redesign again. But I think that there can be design optimizations that are also contemporary, both in the medium to long term. As an example, I picked out a link:
https://themeforest.net/item/blockbuster-movie-tv-show-database-wordpress-theme/21184003?irgwc=1&clickid=QaXTI3w26xyORj5wUx0Mo3ERUknThaVrlxFqUM0&iradid=275988&irpid=102006&iradtype=ONLINE_TRACKING_LINK&irmptype=mediapartner&mp_value1=&utm_campaign=af_impact_radius_102006&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=impact_radius
it shouldn't be such a dark template or exactly this one.

@kakuzade: An external chat could be an idea, precisely because it also looks good. But that would mean that every user has to register separately. From experience I can tell you that users want to register as little as possible on several platforms for the same thing. So we would have to find another solution here.

@ All: I am pleased that we were able to find a desired solution in the IG matter.
