Bugs & Features... [Hide]

Is there anyway to set a counter on your orkut profile and see who's been looking at your profile?

Bugs & Features... [Hide]

Unfortunately not. That should be done server side by Orkut poeple themself.

hmm! Do you work for Orkut?! Because they just added the feature you request there!

Bugs & Features... [Hide]

hmm! I should have asked for s.th. better! though this new feature kinda sucks! I think everyone just turns it off.

thanks. BTW, the style selector works in the scraps page as well. is it intentional?

Search is Broken [Hide]

Yeah, the scraps page is somehow similar to other pages so I thought lets have the styles on this page too. Do you prefer it not to be there? Or should I make any change?

Images [Hide]

browsing s.1's friend list, I can turn "Style 2" to view number of images he/she has, but the text appears prompting this number, is not link to his/her photo albume, is this  a feature or bug?!
