New Look at D.A.

During my routine of favorite sites to surf... Today I discovered that Deviant Art has a new look and several new features.

I'm kinda diggin' it.  It's gotta smooth flow and has some nice feature sets to go with it.  I really like the expand/collapse of images while staying on the same page.

Any art lover obviously knows of this site, but if you are new to the techie world of art, click the link above any go for a "sunday drive".

Leave some feedback on whatcha think of the new look.

Good lord, its bloody awful, whats with the need for everyone to 'simplify' things only to end up making it more difficult to use.

 

Apparently, and judging by the massive outrage in the release thread I am not the only one to think this.

 

Big websites are starting to remind me of big Govt.... think they know what is good for us and won't listen to the 'people'

 

Epic Fail :thumbsdown:

... and yet you're appearing in the "Who loved it?" list.

Not much a fan of the new look myself, but as long as I easily can get to my 'messages' I really don't care how the site looks. ;-)

I haven't used it that much yet but from a quick browse and navigation throught the galleries I find it pretty nice. It's fast for one thing and that is an unusual thing for DA. I'd say it's a much smoother rollout than some places I've seen.

Don't read anything more in to that comment that what is written please. It wasn't aimed at any one site in particular.

Nip it in the bud now!

So much for all their 'experts' quoted above... it's becoming a mutinous freaking revolt over there.

Yeah I've been sorta following it too. Abysmal failure.

Don't care one way or the other... not there often enough/long enough for it to matter.

Yup, and they should...the new layout really blows, and sooo many ads everywhere. You cant even mute most of the ads, so they play right over your music if you are listening to any.

I think I'll give it a little time...let them work out any kinks...then take another look. But seriously, I don't think I will spend much time there anymore.

Yes there are many complaints but, when your dealing with such a large site people with a gripe tend to gripe... and people who like it tend to be satisfied with just letting things be. IMO.
