Comments and voting buttons stopped working in firefox 15 since the new gallery update.
I can still click on the up and down arrows and post comments, but they don't "stick". When I go back to the image, my comment is gone, and my upvote doesn't count anymore. In Chrome everything works normally, so I'm pretty sure its a firefox problem. I am running 15.0.1, which I believe is the latest version.
Deleted pictures are still there.
I can still see the pictures I deleted when I visit their image url.
After they are deleted from our servers, they have to also be deleted from our CDN. If the direct links are still working, it's because the CDN has not removed them yet, but they add the images to a queue and they will be removed in the order they are received.
New uploaded picture vote
I really like the older version of Imgur, close knit community has now been spread out between the different viewing sections. I also understand there is always room for change. I think it would be great for the old style "webs popular images" viewing but a different section for user uploaded pictures. Where us Imgurians can vote user uploaded photos into the popular viewing section.
They are currently different sections. New is all user submitted in real time. Hot is those images that have already proven themselves on the web. Hot sorted by time is the old new.
let UPVOTES and DOWNVOTES be in seperate boxes
Make gallery submission more obvious for casual users
While I am enjoying the "new" imgur, I suspect the casual user is not aware of the gallery function making posts public/for comment. I've seen quite a few which from the caption and content really do strike me as stuff uploaded to share with friends, not stuff uploaded for the gallery. I'm wondering if it might be made clearer, perhaps in the note that says "Upload 1 image into the gallery" - maybe change that to "Upload 1 image into the *public* gallery"
This was really long winded, sorry.
new interace layout
I want to give you some (hopefully constructive) criticism on the new layout. (sorry if "bugs" is the wrong section, but there wasn't a "feedback" option)
The up/down vote bar; How many ups vs downs a post has is a bit of into that is really nice to see, on almost all posts. Having to click to see it really detracts from its usefulness. The previous red/green bar was a really nice, simple representation that you just absorbed without any effort. UI improvements should reduce the number of clicks users make, not increase them.
The padding in the comments text field is somewhat deceptive. It makes it feel like the cursor is not right at the beginning of the field.
The fav icon turning red. well yes I can see that you are going for a classic heart colour, but its so counter intuitive as it's the same colour as a downvote.
v minor points;
The separation between the comments section and image feels like a waste of screen space, and really breaks the visual line of the interface.
The new buttons seem rather old-school and clunky.
I'm sorry these are all negative points, but I'm sorry to say that there is nothing about the new UI that I can get excited about. It seems like change for changes sake and has reduced the easy and intuitive user flow that is part of what made imgur so great.
I really hope that you'll back out some of the recent changes. I love Imgur but these changes really don't sit well.
All the best

Captions disappearing minutes after submitting?
I can't see my own comments on the front page now?
