This morning we’ve added back in the ‘My Galaxies’ feature to the Zoo 2 site. The ‘My Galaxies’ page increases significantly the load on our servers and so we had to disable it very soon after launch due to the sheer number of people coming to the site. So that we can reintroduce ‘My Galaxies’ without risking slowing the site down too much, you will only be able to see the ‘My Galaxies’ page if you registered more than three days ago. This three day limit is a rolling time window, i.e. all Zooites from Zoo 1 will be able to access ‘My Galaxies’ now and new users will be able to access it three days after they registered.
At the moment ‘My Galaxies’ is only showing the 21 most recently ‘favourited’ galaxies. Don’t worry though, all of your favourites are being stored and soon you will be able to access them all. In addition you’ll soon be able to see your classification history and the classifications you made.
Cheers,
Arfon and the Galaxy Zoo Team.
It’s good to see them again.
Thank heaven the ” My Galaxies ” function is back. I am so used to it that my mind has been wandering around guessing where my favourites have gone. Thanks Arfron & the TEAM for reactivating this vital function for individual Zooites like me ..
JKHC.
Keep up the good work Arfon!
Thanks again,TEAM.

Seems like My Galaxies isn’t really up!
Max
It should be up for all those who registered more than three days ago. IF that’s you and you’re not seeing it, let us know.
Cheers
Chris
Splendid, but I wish you hadn’t put the ‘remove’ function right next to ‘more information’. I’ve just clicked the wrong one.
Chris
Ah, so new users wont be able to use them.
Well thats me so maybe in the future!
Thanks
Max
Hi Max
The very near future – the 3 days rolls on so give it the weekend and you’ll be able to see them waiting for you.
Chris
Wow, this is great. I can finally save and see all those beautiful spirals and other interesting oddities.
Keep up the good work!
Thank for news.
I’m new here can someone tell me what I should do in this situation. Currently looking at a system that is both irregular and has a black line through it. How do I classify for both!?
Arfon, you and your team are wonderful! This is a great site. It is easy to use and for all the pictures and people you have visiting it, it performs beautifully!
Max, you should join the forum for points like that. The black line is probably a pixel failure, though you do get dust lanes occasionally.
If I put my favourite, please can you build, equip and make ready a spaceship to go there?
Excellent news!
There is one problem though—“My Galaxies” only shows favourites, while in the GZ2 beta there was no way to favourite a galaxy. Is there absolutely no way to access the history from the GZ2 beta?
Arnt – not right now, but we will merge the two eventually.
Chris

This is fantastic! It gets even more excited now. Thanks!
This is an amazing site! Thanks for creating such a powerful portal for our imaginations!

How can I stack My Favourites to keep ‘my best’ in the top ten?
