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.

That's what I was saying. I guess one can get used to it, but the old design is just fine, as far as usability, simplicity, and overall visual.

Everything has to be trendy and hip at some point. lol

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.

I turn 62 in Dec. I like the new look & layout. Right now I have 4 links to the Nexus for the 4 games I play(3 Fallouts & Skyrim), now I only need 1. It took me about 5 mins to figure it all out. So all I can say is; "Maybe it's true what they say about public school". I love mods, therefore I love Nexus. long live modders.

change the word "Trending" back to "Hot Files" this isn't youtube, it's the Nexus.

"Trending mods" is so bland and cheesy. It has to be HOT FILES ;)

HOT MODS, you mean. The borderline pun is a bonus! :)

But yeah, I hate the word "trending". It tastes of focus groups and target demographics, and always makes me feel like I'm talking to an inbred marketing department.

Love the new site design guys, its quite different from the old one but to my mind, for the better. I study Creative Computing myself and find the sites new Bootstrap-esque layout to be rather inspiring, and I can see how much work clearly went into it, plus the benefit of being able to add and remove functionality with less hassle is great on the back end. Here's hoping people will learn to live with the change and, perhaps, even come to prefer it. Kudos Nexus team! Looking forward to seeing what happens with Vortex :)

Maybe I'm just too used to the old design, but I just can't use the new layout, looks "off" to me.

Is there a reason we can't just keep the option of changing between the new and old designs?

Maintaining the functionality of two very different web designs sharing the same content is very costly and inefficient.

There can only be one.
