DreamHorse Changes and Bug Watch!

Hi All,
We have been working really hard this winter on some enhancements to DreamHorse.com.  It has been a long, cold winter and we have taken this opportunity to make some changes that we have had on our To-Do list for quite some time. Here's a partial list:

  • New Image Uploader that is Not Picky about Image Size. It resizes them!!!
  • New Change Thumbnail Screen so you can swap between thumbnails on ads with multiple photos
  • Simplified, more flexible Order Options for Photo Ads
  • New Send Video button to make it easier to send us your video link
  • New Manage Pedigree Screen with proper tab order between fields
  • New Manage Skill and Skill-Level Screen
  • Upgraded Saved Searches to match Advanced Search More Closely
  • Covering Sire field for Bred Mares
  • A place to enter what you might TRADE for if you have May Trade set to Yes
  • Overall clean-up of Fonts and Styles on the pages
  • Upgraded Advanced Search to handle all the new fields

With all these changes, you can imagine that there might be some bugs. If you see something on the site that is not working properly, please be sure to let us know. You can always contact our Help Desk at: http://www.dreamhorse.com/contact.php

Thanks for your patience as we get these upgrades in place!

We've been busy upgrading DreamHorse this winter. The latest is to help streamline the add-entry process by creating a separate Manage Pedigree screen. When creating and editing ads, watch for the new Manage Pedigree button for a much simpler one-screen pedigree. Pressing the tab button will move you down the list, generation by generation, making it much easier to enter your pedigrees.

We also have a brand new Image Uploader and simplified Order Options! As always, DreamHorse offers unlimited, free text ads, so if you have a horse to sell or stallion to market, why not give it a try?!

New Feature: Change Thumbnail!

If you have a photo ad on our site with multiple photos, such as our Gallery Ad, Video Ad or Stallion Ad, you can now change your small, thumbnail image. You can decide which thumbnail you would like to appear in the Search Results List. (Our Spotlight ads will display your Spotlight Artwork once it is complete.)

To change your thumbnail, login to My DreamHorse and click the EDIT HORSE button on any photo ad. Your current thumbnail will appear in the Special Options at the top of the Edit screen for the horse. The CHANGE THUMBNAIL button will appear directly beneath the current thumbnail. When you click it, a list of available thumbnails will appear and you may select which one you prefer to use. Click the UPDATE THUMBNAIL button, and the change will be immediate. This will give your ad a fresh, new look!

Fancy New Image Uploader is Running Now!

The new Image Uploader is running now in BETA test mode! I think you will love it because it lets you upload all of the photos for a particular horse at once, plus gives you the capability to rotate and crop the photos. Also, best of all, it is not picky about your original file size! If you would like to try it, first place your order for a photo ad and then use the New Image Uploader to upload your photos. There is a link in My DreamHorse as well as on the Old Original Uploader to get you to the New BETA Image Uploader! Thanks!

New Image Uploader Coming Soon!

I have been working hard on a new image uploader for our photo ad orders. It is very close to release and is being tested now. This new software will allow our customers to quickly upload up to 4 photos at a time. Each upload set will be for ONE HORSE. It even has options for rotating and cropping the images! The best thing about it is that the customer does not have to worry about the size of the original image. The program is able to resize the images during the upload process which will make it very easy for our customers to get the photos to our photos department as quickly as possible. Watch for this coming very soon!
