Hey Bragsters,

Here’s a quick note to let you know about a few new changes we’re making to the site today.

1. Bragging Rights – We’ve tweaked the algorithm for these a little, to give a greater weight to videos over pictures. While pictures can be cool, videos tend to be better most of the time, and we think they provide much better proof of the craziness you guys and girls get up to! As such, you’ll now get significantly more BR for your videos than your pictures.

2. Navigation – The “sub-nav”, as the technically-inclined call it, has been significantly changed, as you can see here:

As you can see, clicking on BragTV will now give you the three options of ‘Video Brags’ (the default), ‘Image Brags’, and ‘Hall of Fame’. This makes it much easier to find the kind of things you want to see. The same categories (up&coming, most BR, etc) as before are in the drop-down box, making it very easy to sort what’s hot, newest, and so on.

3. Cool/Lame – We’ve renamed the voting buttons to “Cool Brag” and “Lame Brag” – we think this makes it a little more obvious what the purpose of voting is, have a look:

The more observant of you may also have spotted the ‘This is not a brag!’ button in the image above – this feature isn’t quite ready yet (we’ve still to put the icing on that particular cake), but should be coming soon, and will help you guys let us know when someone is posting something that doesn’t belong to them, like a google image for instance.

We think the above changes, as well as more to come, will help to make Bragster a better and easier-to-use place for all our awesome users – but what do you think? – Be sure to let us know on the feedback group, by email, or in the comments here on the blog!
