Mark multiple messages as "read"

Since you get a copy of all Sheet Exchange messages sent to your email address as well, you may want to mark multiple messages on the web site as read.
A simple yet extremely useful and requested feature which is now enabled.

Add Download URL to your sheet information!

We decided to roll-out one of the most requested features: Download URL!
You can now add a web address to your new or existing sheet information.
You can now use file sharing services to share actual files.
Remember, the more sheets you make available to others, more sheets will be available to yourself!

SheetExchange has a face lift!

As you can see the design and logo of the site have changed. We improved the images etc. to make the design load almost twice as fast.

Add a list of requested sheets!

This is perhaps the most requested feature added to the site since the beta was launched: You can now add requested sheets to your profile!

This changes the sheet request process:
Once you use the "Request Sheet" button, you will see that user's requested sheets (if there are any). Then you can select a sheet that you have to offer and the message subject will automatically change to include the sheet that you want from the user and the one that you can offer for it.

It's that simple so start adding your requested sheets today!

Of course by adding more sheets to your account you increase your chances of finding someone who can offer you the sheet you want in exchange for one of your sheets.

Since this is a major upgrade to the site there is a chance of errors and problems. If you notice any please let us know.

Tell your friends!

Hello to new visitors, we recently added a link to this blog from Sheet Exchange's main page.

We have added a little page to Tell your friends about this community and help us expand the number of sheets.

Update: Now you can also email a specific sheet.

Keep track of your favorite users and requests!

Today two cool new features have been added that will help you "keep track"!

When you visit a user's profile (if you're logged in to the site), you will see an option to add the user to your favorites right next to the username. When you click the user will be added to your favorites. There is a new "Favorite Users" item in the user menu which shows you the list of your favorites. On that page you can visit an individual user's page when you click on the username, delete favorites and best of all, see the sheets from all of your favorites in a single page.

Another little new feature is "Sent Messages". This behaves slightly differently from a usual "Sent Mail" folder: If a message is in bold, it means the recipient hasn't read it yet (that is not quite true since they might have read the email notification which includes your message and not the actual message on the site -- but nevertheless it's better that nothing as there's no way to tell if they have read the email or not). Also if they delete the message, it will also be deleted from your sent folder.

Say goodbye to Leechers...

You are now required to add sheets to the site before you can contact users and request sheets.

This is a feature to reduce Leechers who only ask for sheets and don't contribute anything to the community.

We do not require a 1 on 1 exchange. Of course you may not necessarily need any of the sheets that the user who asks for one of your sheets has added to the site, however, this new feature simply helps reduce those unwanted emails from people asking you for a sheet and provide nothing in return.

P.S. The user profile page is also slightly changed to show user's sheets by default.
