CommentsDevious CommentsThanks for the very detailed critique.
On the subject of the number of options available for certain features, like scrolling comments and redirecting, this is the first version that's been so customisable and it's up to people like you to tell me what extra features would be desirable, so hopefully I get more comments like yours. Of course, I also have to balance out packing out as many options as possible with keeping it simple and suitable for the majority of users, so it's just a matter of time to see how it will evolve (and perhaps what other people will write for it). For stripping dA external links, basically, all the scripts are going to go about this in the same way and executing the same routine multiple times, while inefficient, will not break anything. And of course we all know what lurks behind some links - I would hope that those with the intellect to use and install scripts and extensions are aware of the dangers of the Internet, and won't try to hold me responsible! (I'll probably make a note to add a warning message to that effect.) Sounds like a plan to me.

I've never known that! You should report it to dA. -- |
Then, giving up, I happened to switch to a different dA tab and saw the settings box. WOW!

Skip the Prints Stage After Submitting
Overall, I most enjoy the fact that you can choose to enable or disable certain features (such as skipping the Prints Submission Stage) depending on your needs. This entire process will definitely ease future days here on dA, and I have an extra comfort: if my Firefox bugs out and makes me redo it all, I know that it'll only take me five minutes to configure it all again!
Two thumbs up for the dA coder extraordinaire!
