Meh. In one word, it sucks.

It's going to take me a while to adjust, but I don't know why the level aura and icon is smaller than before. I don't know what to do, and the emotes aren't explained very well.

Hate is very much the wrong word. It just will take time to get used to, like with any major redesign. People moan like bitches when facebook and youtube update and they always appear to. NG has had the same layout for a long time, even the design before the redesign didn't really change the layout as much as this one has. So it'll take some time to get used to for sure but its not horrible. It's different.

Woah, I think it's awesome!

Response to Who else hates the redesign? 2012-02-08 02:22:15


It's awful, now I get to see everyones shitty profile pic instead. Level icons are now just sitting on the bottom, holding zero relevance to anything. No point in even depositing your experience anymore.

C'mon people, is there really that much to complain about? This is why some of you can't have nice things. Members ask for a redesign and then call their work shit? Talk about ungrateful, keep in mind this redesign isn't even fully complete. Bitching for the sake of your own unfamiliarity is childish? LEARN to navigate through it instead of whining.

I enjoy the revised rating system for reviewing submissions.It's more simplistic and makes giving a verdict alot easier.
I also like the statement above the pico ratings because it's what I wanted to scream at many "reviewers" in a nutshell.
NG is pimped out! This site is so visually appealing and balances out all the generic black in the previous design.

I'm happy with the redesign, but If people have a genuine complaint they should voice it. It doesn't help the site if everyone just gives a blind thumbs-up. If something is genuinely off letting the admins know is more beneficial than getting used to it.

Yes, genuine complaints should always be voiced. However, complaining about icons, the background, or anything else aesthetic not related to having actual problems navigating or about the site is little more than "Stop liking what I don't like."

As a point of reference Asperchu is an example of someone who complains in a way that's of no use to anyone except him and his childish need for attention.

Precisely.

Aesthetic complaints are always valid. It looks too busy, and the fact people have already found out how to block it speaks volumes about it. Granted it's nice to have bigger pictures to post, but the fact sigs are wider but not taller, user banners are gone, and .png support is still basically non-existent is ridiculous.

They somehow took steps backwards with this while also going forward. It's confusing.

Bullshit, when I upload a .png it changes to .jpg. That's NOT .png support.

Bolo and a few others don't like it.

sigs are wider but not taller,

If sigs were taller we'd have people bitching about how they're too big in the same league as people complaining about how the level icons now take a backseat to the profile pictures. Or not, I don't know, we can't say for sure.

user banners are gone,

Probably because of the profile images. Although ok, I'll miss them.

Things do change, it's a redesign.

Because when I posted that image in my post it showed up as a .jpg. I then right clicked and saved ass and saw it showed up as a .jpg after I posted. To me this is not true full .png support.

Weird I never had to "save ass" a png. Maybe you uploaded a jpg and didn't realize it?It should be a simple right click- save- upload.

Nope, I chose a .png from my files and posted it. It changed to .jpg. Perhaps I should try an actual .png with transparency and all that jazz.

I totally love the redesign.

My only 2 complaints are that the quote button totally took over reply, and now I have to go all the way to the top of the topic to just plain reply. And my second complaint is the inclusion of avatars in the forums. Keep it one or the other, if you have 2, they just look really small and useless.

Other then that, I love how the whole site looks. I am super excited to use the new project system and I think the news feed will be really useful in the future once it will be fully implemented with it's features!

Come to think of it, I miss seeing Tom's site updates at the bottom of the main page.
