CNN iReport

Hi David, I posted a report of a missing new orleans woman. I can see the picture on the main  page but w hen I click into the story it says uploading. Asked Ky to click into and he says he sees it. Also on one of TJIII's reports it does not have report violation next to my name. Does this mean he can't report me if I'm bad (smile) And you know already that we can't send pm's. One more thing I don't know if I'm doing something  wrong but I had to try three times before I was logged in. I don't know if anyone else had t his problem. Thanks. BTW was this the suprise for Monday?

David I can see the picture now. I don't know why it took so long. Thanks again

David here is the report where violation does not appear next to my name

Some reports show up and then the same one later doesn't. Not sure whether to resend or not.

Do not want to double post

I put the site in front of a few friends that were previously familiar with it when they came to watch football today.

Mostly they didn't get it.

The default page is the "iReport Home". This is where the main confusion was. Far too much, far too confusing.

Asking where they can see the actual iReports, I had to show them the obvioius link. Truthfully, it took me awhile to realize where it was as well. Yep, very confusing.

The "iReports" link I believe should be the default page and not the promo page, or have it highlighted in red or something like that.

The promo page could be something like "About iReport".

"Upload" was also something they didn't understand. "Upload Story" they thought would be better.

Everything else seems to have been already covered.

I have another one.

The "NOT VETTED BY CNN" black bar on top of the images are messing some things up.

i.e. This cartoon by Artboy:http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-346368

A person cannot understand the joke of the cartoon because the black bar covers some of the text.

I've seen this on several images now.

I don't even know what an 'I get it' box is. I guess i don't have one?

There have been glitches but probably expected. Was unable to leave comment on ireports due to 'server error' earlier.

My major gripe is the size of the viewing area for ireporters photos and video on their pages. I feel it should be bigger so people aren't forced to use 'view full screen' option every time. Noticed the ireporter's name is next to the video, thus shrinking the area available for video/photo. Is it too late to change that? I love the letterbox video formating used on CNN stories on the video page.

And in 'view full screen' there is no button to scroll through photos. I had to go close each photo before viewing the next one.

Here's my two and a half cents. Although I like the new look I think that having the actual reports on the main page is still a good idea. There's a lot going on and most people won't have the patience to search for individual reports even though they're not that hard to find if you search. Also the "Not Vetted" label might work better if it was formatted smaller, maybe in an oval rather than a full bar across the image. Overall it's a nice new look it just needs a little streamlining. The old "less is more" concept. I'll check in tomorrow. 

My first reaction to the changes was negative.  Then, I realized my discomfort stemmed from non-familiarity with a once familiar environment.  I am going to have to re-learn how to get around the Ireport site...which only comes with time.

I just noticed something else. I like that the image enlarges when I click on the box but the resolution is a bit fuzzy. I need to know what size image I should submit to resolve this?

Aha.  Found a bug.  I cannot email other ireporters.  I can fill in a subject.  But when I try to click on the body box of the message, nothing happens.  I am unable to type an email message.

Thank you.

Just out of curiousity, why are these ads allowed???

All these talks about immigrants,race,latinos and black people is seriously getting on my nerves.Let's face it.We are all immigrants here in America except for Red Indans who are native Americans.The only difference is the time we immigrated here.That is to say if you are born in America or the day you first came to America.Everybody has an accent so lets all stop the bull shit.I am a from Africa and i am proud to be black and frankly i don't see any reason why people should bediscriminating against other people.LIVE AND LET LIVE.WE ALL HAVE BUT A SHORT TIME TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD.Believeit ornot.

Wow, another one:

Your iReporter post pages block links to The Toronto Film Festival (TTIF: http://www.tiff.net/filmsandschedules/films/soga

???????????????????

I tried to upload some photos now but it wont get uploaded

I won't repeat those already mentioned but I have noticed another bug. If someone uploads 10 images the listing underneath shows 10 as a 1 so the count goes 1 to 9 then 1 again. Nothing major just a quirk.

Another suggestion/question:  John King this morning announced that people can have their own profiles on CNN.com and that they can specify the news topics they want to follow.  It would be great if we could do that on our Ireport profiles, or that we could have the same profile on CNN.com and on Ireports since CNN is finally proud enough of us to adopt us.

David i have a report trying to upload since 9:23 can you check on it?

still can't pm anyone

David my report is only 53.2MB

are there no more reports featured on the front page of CNN?

Hi all!  I'll be late to the blog meetin but the main question I have is: is the "not vetted by CNN" sign needed?

omekongo this blog was open all weekend to just give problems

I'm having a problem sending private messages also. Once I fill in the initial part it won't let me continue to complete an actual message. Also as far as the "Not Vetted" sign is concerned why is it really needed? Legal reasons I assume but isn't that already stated some where else on the page? If it has to be there why not design it so it takes up less space or even be placed outside the image?
