Having 20 on a page is cool and all, as is multiple options, but I am not super enthused on having to flick my eyes side to side then down then side to side rather than just scrolling down. I tend to browse latest files every few days, and although 20 results is better then 10, then side to side isn't IMO. I am currently using big thumbnails, I find that the easiest to view. I can probably get used to it, but just thought I'd mention it. A single file list would be nice if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusader33 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Why mess up something that works fine? If we wanted a change we would have asked for it !!!!! Cannot hit link from my downloads says file not found !!! Loads slow confusing to look at !!!! Looks to main stream... I fell a 9.99 monthly charge coming !!!! My guess is young folks well be very happy while the rest of us say wtf Edited October 25, 2017 by Crusader33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolffyFr Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I really like it so far ! The only thing that is bothering me is the trending mods box on the main page. Honestly, 7 panels are too much, considering two of them are taking half of the display area of the site (my screen is 1366*768, yes, it literally takes half of the screen !). My advice is to change it on a smaller box with one medium size panel on the left and 4 panels (in a square) on the right. Also, we should be able to choose what's on display on the main page. Personaly, I really don't care about the media section, so an option to disable it would be welcomed ^^ Good job guys ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDaddyRat Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) My anxiety is going thru the roof!! 1. My files won't download..they list as incomplete. 2. When I look at a mod and go back to browsing, it restarts at page 1. Oh, and listing mods as removed..which ones were removed?? No name, have no idea which mods were removed. Sheesh!!! And heaven forbid we try to use the old site...ain't gonna happen.Why fix something that ain't broke?

Irool Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 There is definitely too much going on on the page lesser is often more.

But with the new design it show off mods, pictures etc. from users i haf blockt again and yes i am logged in. Maki tit realy blocked again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkiller Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hello! Everything has become too big, especially on the big screen it looks very bad, I really hope that this is not the final version, but some new features already like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammue Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) It is alright for the most part. I do think the site looks too busy (as in there is too many things on screen at once) and stuff just kinda seems to blend together. There is too much scrolling on the main page, it shouldn't take so long to reach the bottom/ the other stuff that isn't hot files. And the ads are very oddly placed adding to the "hecticness" of the already very busy and almost blurry layout.
