Search Results defective on FireFox 3 on Mac

Search results is unusable on Firefox 3 on a Mac: Pictures are not shown, only picture placeholders are. Also there are extra placeholders pictures on top of the buttons bar which each picture has.

Include Message history in View Profile

Let's say I saw someone cute and I used the Ask X About Y button to ask my friend about her. After two days he replies something like "She drinks tons of Vodka. Stay away".
I think it would be wise to include the messages between me and my friends about her in the View Profile, to warn me from approaching her in case I forgot or to ask my friends again about the same person.

Asaf Mesika replied on September 13, 2009 19:50 to the idea "Introduce button" in Thread:

Well, the idea came from field try-outs. I sent my best friend, Shai, few questions regarding several women in his network. While we were talking on the phone, he opened the mail, saw the link. Click it and saw my question. Then he said: "ok, so now I want to send her an email with a link to your profile, asking her to check you out, see if she's interested - Where's the button for that?". That we thought it would be an excellent idea to have this button. Maybe the mouseover tooltip over the button would contain a tiny preview of such email, so it would clear what this button does.
I say - give it a try, see if people click it.
I will ask more of my friends about such button - see what they think.

Thanks for all the compliment. I simply love your site from just about every aspect.
Keep on the excellent work.

Asaf

Sure I do: Don't forget I'm in Israel Time zone (GMT+2)

Thanks.

Israel is an amazing place to live at. Especially Tel-Aviv, which is considered a great place for a beach vacation.

Ordering of search results if not consistent

1. Clicked Search from Home
2. Viewed a few profiles. Saw a girl named Etti.
2.5. Clicked hide on couple of profiles
3. Clicked on 2 to get the second results page.
4. Found Etti as the last profile on the last page (page 2)

Search results are not ordered correctly I guess.

Introduce button

Check out the following scenario:
1. I see a cute girl on Search Results. I click the Question Mark button and send my friend Shai a question about her: "What do you think about her?"
2. Shai opens his email and see an Email saying I have question about May (the girl) in Thread.com.
3. He sees her picture on the site, remembers who she is and then wants to introduce between us.

At that point, wouldn't be great if there was a button on that screen called "Introduce Asaf to May" which will send a templated Facebook message to May, which includes the link to my profile (asaf).

Ask A Friend dialog should have question templates

In the Ask A Friend dialog, I would add a choice of several template questions. Save me the trouble of writing the same question over and over again.

Profile view should be in the Search Results window

Flipping between Search Results and Profile view is slow and tiring after 2-3 profile views.
If the profile view could open in the same window as another layer (making the background gray) that would save me a lot of time and make the site more friendly.

Play matchmaker is missing in the site functionality

One of the most missing parts of Thread is tools for the people who are already taken and want to play Matchmakers.
This guys/girls needs are different. For instance: They don't need to search their friend's network. They need to see their own network and search on that.
Buttons on each profile should be different. For instance: Recommend to X.
It's sometimes hard for me to convince my taken friends to enter this site. They don't need to search for new partners. The ones I do convince end being bored since they don't have anything they can do on the site. The only plus of convincing them is that I can browse their friends since they are registered.

Localized invite messages

Hi,
When I click Invite X on the main Home screen, I usually end up deleting the English text and replacing it with more convincing Hebrew text.
How about you create a localized version of the invitation text for each language?
I can give you my template for Hebrew.

Some search results missing picture of connection in Grid View

On search results, in grid view, some results are missing the picture of the my friend who knows them.
In my case I saw it happening for a person named "Yfat Buhbut". The icon of my friend who is attached to her, should have shown up beneath the Age: Unknown

Yes. The scenerio:
1. Search for Female * Unknown, and got results.
2. Marked two profiles as Guys (got Thanks! on both)
3. Chose a a 3rd profile and clicked on it. Got to the profile page.
4. Here I've two things:
4.1. Clicked back. Got Resend post data dialog. Clicked yes, and saw the Guy/Girl questions again on the profile I've marked.
4.2 Did the scenario again, but this time clicked the top Search button. Got back to the search results, with same Girl/Guy questions on profile I've marked.

Hi,
Well, I almost ran out of girls to try this Ask a Friend feature, but I still had one left, so I tried it and recorded it through ScreenToaster.
Here it is:

Do you want me to use Firebug to check for other stuff?

Just remember to VIP me when you get big :)

View selected should be reused in next search

Search Results screen should "remember" and use the last View selected (Grid or Lines).
