I don't need to be hand-fed. I need the DATA, nothing more. It's all any of you need. You can stick the thumbs and descriptions etc in your own friggin tables, and apply your own styles. Sure they could offer an "encoded content" tag with formatted content for the idjuts.. but it's unecessary. This just goes to show.. you consider a bad feed one to be unformatted, I consider a bad feed to be one that formats the content so I can't choose how to use it myself.
And to make it clear.. we're talking about AFFILIATE feeds here.. for WEBMASTERS to add to their own pages to give updated content. Not SURFER feeds for them to add to yahoo and the like.

it is obvious we both the need the feeds for different purposes, which is where the whole idea of giving the affiliate customizable options comes into play, if they wouold do that, we woul;d all be happy
I could have my formatted feed, you could have your raw data
I don't know why you even need rss feeds though, topbucks and all those sponsors just grab that text from the paysite tours and galleries...and if you just take that text and format it yourself, then why bother with the rss?
you obviously don't know me though, to imply that I am not a webmaster, I can almost guarantee I have been punching out html and php in notepad longer than most on this board
