dezerte

I think the first rollout was mostly fine. I thought the contrasting colors change in the recent activity tab made it easier to read. However I did not like the new search pop-up window, it obscures too much of the website preventing you from using the site without closing down the pop-up. The second rollout hit me today, radically changing the landing page for each game. It feels more compact and so far I'm finding it confusing and harder to find and discover mods. This, along with first rollout has resulted in more clicks/key presses being needed to navigate the site. The black background behind the mod tiles is probably a big issue for readability - mod tiles don't "pop out" any longer. It was previously lighter or used a varied image as a background which I think made the contrast more clear and visible. Overall, I think the site UI update made the website look more modern, more sleek. However, it reduced usability. Right now I would prefer to have the old design back.

Oh, shiny.
