HI, great work and modern looking, but just a few thoughts.Thousands of YouTube mod review and tutorial videos have links in the description to mods that will bring to the modders page using the old domain links i.e nexusmods.com/link to mod. This new site currently has a domain name rd.nexusmods.com/link to mod. I suspect RD stands for redone The existing YouTube links will of course link to the old design URL not the new. So, should YouTube folks put a link to both sites in YouTube descriptions meantime, or will the old site be discontinued in future and the old links match the current links in thousands of YouTube descriptions. I am assuming the domain for the new design will revert back to nexusmods.com when everything is finalised, and domain links to mods will match the previous URLs.

 

cheers and kudos to this new design, well done.

RD will soon be moved to nexusmods.com. As such, people should NOT link to rd.nexusmods.com on a permanent basis.

I love the new design. It scales much better and uses more screen real estate. It has a modern look and everything is generally better. The files section of mod pages though has alot of unused space. That could definitely use some work. Other than that it's great and I like it's at a new URL so people can go back to the old one for now if they want.

It is in need of some changes, but minor ones. The design overall is really good and functional, but instead of trying to use it and accept the old design is way out of date, lots of people just bash it and go "this is bullshit, it ruined my perfectly made mod page (which is all done with images btw)". Well sorry, that can be solved, I just don't think that all has to be discarded because "my page looks bad". Well then, make it look good!

Here are some of my suggestions: https://imgur.com/a/PvRw4

 

The reason why the old design was so good was because it was compact and comfortable to use. This new design has a lot of crucial areas empty, instead placing information all round. This causes the user to scroll around and search for something that's supposed to be in one place.

 

Tags should be moved over to a new tab.

 

"About this mod" section should be removed from main description as it's just a short version of the full description. It should only show up in mod preview.

 

Share button should be moved over to the front header.

OK, new layout worked today, it's too flashy for my taste, i've spend an hour on the new layout and i was tired of tons of pictures, it kinda tires me a lot more then the old layout, so i switched back.

Sure hope you guys keep that available in the future, much easier on the eyes, easier to find stuff rightaway, i'm sure that will even hold up after one gets used to the new layout.

 

Don't get me wrong, the new layout looks good, modernized, but all those pics and hundreds of colors and a lot of small descriptions on the screen at once is just very distracting, that's actually becoming a trend on the internet, to shove as much links into a page as they can.

I concur, although its a minor and cosmetic thing.
