I don't mind the new design, it'll just take a while to check things out & figure out how to navigate the new layout. What I don't like are the myspace-esque top 5 friends, which I personally will not be putting to use, & the online status. I don't like the idea of people knowing when I'm here, it's more of an invasion of privacy issue for me. Is there a way to go invisible?



If you don't want your online status to be shown go to "settings" and select "Keep it private" under "online status" I hope this helps pretty lady.

It's like browsing a Myspace page. I keep waiting for the sparkly THX 4 TEH ADD messages. Of course that's purely subjective, and I'm sure that a lot of people like the new colors/style. (Maybe not in this "I hate the new page" thread, but still...)

However, speaking purely as a programmer, I have to say: the Flash is pretty much a waste of processing time. I really liked the simple "click the button, scroll the pictures/news items" system from before. Doing it in Flash adds nothing except resource costs. Oh, and a "loading" screen, for the photos. That's charming. And the SG logo? They put a static image in Flash, just to a have a half-second animation to start it off.

Oh, and complaints aside: here's a couple of bugs: The smileys and BBcode options below have white rectangles around them. I assume that's supposed to be transparent so the background grey shows through? Also, clicking "browse girls" doesn't do anything for me. Or I just don't understand what it's doing.

i think it's beautifully designed, and i certainly appreciate all the hard work put into it. and i know i should use it longer than a day and a half, allowing for most of the bugs to get fixed before i pass judgement, but i don't think i care for it just yet.

it's too cramped and cluttered for my liking, the page design is beautifull as just a visual and i'm amazed at the coherrent visual style considering how many different sections each page has.
from a useabbility point of view i hate it though, it jams so much stuff into one page, half of which seems very unnecesary for regular pageviewing.

for example while viewing a thread, one third of the width of the site is taking up by the topic list, that means that while i'm reading a thread my viewspace is reduced by about 33% by something i totally don't need.
after all i'm reading the thread i want, i don't need a menu of other threads and the small effort it takes to click back to the boardlist is a very small price to pay for the extra amount of viewspace, it's a lousy design consession to useabbility pure and simple.

similarly the menu at the top has a number of large menu items in the top bar and right underneath a number of smaller menu items.
the items in the top are all the high profile sections of the site (like the girls, celebrity interviews etc.), the thing is that all these high profile items are parts of the site you'll visit less often most likely, if a new girl is up you go see her from the frontpage, if you want to see any random girl you'll look for her.
but the parts of the site that get a lot of frequent traffic from me are the groups and the boards, you know the bits i actually have lengthy interaction with but these menu items are smaller and pushed towards the bottom.

even my personal page has it, all the way at the top is all the insignificant popularity contest crudd like my little bit of self flattery and the silly links like become my friend, somewhere at the bottom half of the screen or perhaps even offscreen if you have a low resolution is the actual journal. (don't even mention my comments, i have to make an extra click to see those which means that the person who visits and maintains my personal page most (i.e. me) has to make more clicks to get around than someone randomly reading my profile once.


yes it sounds whiny and yes you can get used to it (filter out the overdose of eyecandy, ignore the smaller amount of functional space, learn the sitemap by heart etc.)
but in the end it's very simple, the new design is making rather a lot sacrifices in useabbility for the sake of design which i think is a very bad thing indeed.

it's a great design with some very poor thought concerning user friendlyness.



This sums up my thoughts in a nutshell.

People always bitch at change like this. In a weeks time though the old layout will be forgotten in your mind, and most of you will think this is as good if not better then what it was.

I think it looks great. Once im down with where everything is, then will it get my total approval.

still can't see my entire username on the boards. I wish they had addressed that. Otherwise, it's beautiful and I'm sure I'll like it once I get used to it.

slow,
i hate the rating friends, who wants to deal with that shite?
for some reason i have this issue where when i load this group, all the topics are on the left of the center frame, and then i have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the topic list to see the comments. sucks.
the new colors are useless and i think they make things harder to read.
i'd go into more about the friends comments and some other stuff, but i can't even be bothered. you guys obviously couldn't.
the old site needed some tweaks, not a sledgehammer and pastel crayons.

It's kickass. I love it. Really good job at making it look a lot prettier.

And please, if you don't share the opinion of it being a lot better, be nice about it, no need to say mean stuff. Shit, people worked hard at it.

There really are some neat bells and whistles here. For instance, the active topics page for the boards is outstanding.

That said, this is gonna take me a bit to get used to on the whole.

I can't help but imagine that baby with the horns typing all this with that exact expression on his face. And that is funny. To me.

I am finding it really hard to navigate. I hate the fact I can't see my friends latest blog entries. I don't want to have to click on each of them.

And this whole page just seems overly girly.

Please tell me there are still some changes to be made.
Where can we send feedback? Besides here!



Well, taurus twin, I agree. I can't navigate to my bookmarks. I already had issues looking at the old color schemes (I have issues with red) but this is worse. Plus I feel like I'm snoopy in a tween's diary.

I appreciate the work that went into the redesign, but didn't the designers get paid to do this?

I dislike the top 5 as well. I feel like I'm going to insult someone on my list by putting a certain person over another.

I don't know that I'll be renewing my membership.
