[quote name="GrandKarkistIon" date="2020-06-08 12:11:45" ] Buttons, buttons, too many freakin' buttons. Staff took a handful of buttons and just... tossed 'em down, it seems. [/quote] @grandkarkistion you summed up the entire update beautifully- im in tears. this is it, this is the update.

@nonlight

god thatd be such a cool idea- and honestly that would fix a lot of the tiering / fundamental issues i have with the update? it kind of reminds me of the old deviantart pages idea, where you could put different modules wherever you wanted on your page- have a place for polls, a place for social media stuff, and a place even just for brightly colored animated "stamps"

@lightsgodown

honestly, and i hope it wasn't written as this- i have no issues with change or updates to user interface. however, they rarely work well and people have grown used to what they have experienced. and honestly yeah i do prefer the old layout, but looking at it objectively, there are significant design flaws with the new design: tiering, conflicting colors, placement and sizing, etc. the old design wasn't perfect- designs are never perfect- but the old design definitely had better placement and sizing of things than what is currently implemented. it felt cozy, compact, contained- this just feels airy and light but without that containment...it's cluttered and messy

that's just my two cents though

also i replied to op but yeah i did make the mockup to see what a compromise could look like, and i did make it very quickly. i wasn't trying to edit the new design but edit the old design to look more like the new design if that makes sense? (the addition of scenes mainly) and the mockup by celeanais such a gorgeous mockup honestly !! i wish thats what it looked like tbfh

@fletcher a hover popup would be nice, or perhaps even a small clickable arrow at the bottom of the dragon info that would let you pan to the coli stats

Also like... is anyone else bothered by the fact that applying vista pushes the entire bio box to the right? As someone who has symmetrical bio designs, I really really don't like this.

Agree with everything, it’s sad that in the quest for change they (in my opinion) lost sight of the most basic and important features of the site. This a breeding game, anything else is just for fun.

@salgarthur SIGN ME UP FOR THAT PINGLIST PLEASE ! wow that's gorgeous and also bless you for doing this ? it's incredible and amazing. reminds me of the xkit guy on tumblr coming to be our savior whenever the site inevitably made an unfavorable update.

actually that's exactly what this feels like-
