What about VP would you and can you fix, if given the tools? 
I know quite a few people on here code and stuff, so i'm just curious what y'all are capable of if given the permissions/tools

-layering system (this is really easy and it blows my mind that we don't have an accessible interface for item layering yet)
-user input html/css for blogs, really just overhauling the whole blogging system and making it a lot more modular & customisable
-making a mobile friendly version of the site. not saying i could code an apple store app because oh my god i hate ios/xcode but the site should be functional for people on their phones

those are the only big issues that come to mind that i have personally noticed. what other programming-related things are there that people have brought up? i can probably rank how difficult they are to implement

Is there anyway you can demonstrate the layering system :";) 
i think we need all of those, literally all the improvement 

would making the skins we choose stay on after we click undress be hard to do?

without seeing the code of the wardrobe right now i can't necessarily optimise it but basically all that needs to be done is to have a drop-down panel that will have all of the indices possible (ie 0 being at the very top of the doll and 12 or however many categories there are being behind the doll) of the items currently worn, add a flag to items that you are currently wearing (already exists because you can click the 'what i am wearing' option even while you are making an outfit, so clearly the flag is being used) that makes them also drag & drop-able, and then people can re-order stuff within that panel, and have the reordering update the index of the item itself

that's more of a javascript task but i could code a simple concept of that even though i hate js

the skins staying on after you click undress is a bit of a different problem though. you could probably add a feature specifically to the skins where you can choose ONE skin that now becomes your default skin, that is pretty easy. but coding something to remove everything except the skin sounds like a pain for people with bigger wd having to track down the skin they are currently wearing each time. so personally i wouldn't want that implemented as the default but making it an option wouldn't be hard at all.

This part is (probably) easy, just update vp's tinyMCE version, write new initialization code for it, find some nice plugins and idk I first read about it yesterday

Nah, how about having a feature to "lock" any items you wear rn so they stay on after undress
(don't even have to store info about locked clothes on the server, make people lock it anytime they want to undress)

Just a little lock buttons on items in the new layering system

Nope, current vp system works with categories (You have category layers, and there are item layers in each category layer so items can't move out of their category layer) and you can't just 'override' it from client side

yeah tbh i wasn't even thinking of just how simple it could be LOL we could definitely have it be that simple

idk if you ever played neopets but they allow for custom clientside css/html and they have the whole display already objectified so you can just hide/alter elements as you see fit. obviously would want to make it html/css only (no js!!!) so that people don't take advantage of it, but it seems to be a pretty straightforward concept to launch since literally every neopets clone has it as a base feature LOL

ooooooo that is a good point too, because then the undress can just be updated to remove any items that don't have the lock flag on them much easier than what i was imagining (redirecting the base skin display to be whatever the skin you selected as your favourite)

yes coding is my job i'd be very curious to see the code base and its quality, since changes take so long to make im guessing it is an old code base
