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

There can only be one.

I won't grow to love something just because I'm forced to use it, that's not how it works, unless Stockholm Syndrome kicks in something fierce. Especially when it's a mobile-focused redesign of a website devoted almost entirely to PC games.

 

And the name change is just...why? Why change the name at all? And to a word that doesn't even have the same meaning?

There is no name change. Vortex is a mod manager. Nexus mods is and always will be the site.

 

Not really sure how people are getting this misconception.

 

P.s. more than one video in mod descriptions is a train wreck on both old and new layouts. Maybe people will learn that one day...

The new design is not mobile-focused, it is mobile-friendly. It is still designed with PC as focus.

And again, the name is not changing...

This new design is so much better, and that's coming from somebody that is high in conscientiousness only problem is the favicon which everytime I see it I freak out and think I've just downloaded abunch of non-SE skyrim mods. other than that the 24hr trending tab is awesome, way better discovery for low profile very well made mods. cudos.

Like the redesign its also seems to clear "my inlog bug" for me that's extra nice not having to change my password again and again :)

[MrStoob]

Do Nexus have plans to utilise wide screen for layouts at some point? I do like the new format but it could have been improved by using the full screen and getting rid of the image borders. How many even use 4:3 screens these days? Anyhoo, just a suggestion.

I saw something that might help at least for me:

Resize the images under "Trending Mods" and let them fill the entire area.
Drop the shade from grey to dark in the background.
Both the biggies and the smaller ones.

Will calm down the page immensely.

Resizing the site with ctrl and +/- doesn't help for me, it only gives too much space around the (smaller) images.

I checked it out and am not a fan of this 'telephone' layout lol

 

I use a PC for everything and this is certainly not as conducive as the "old" layout.

 

I understand that functionality, cleaning and tightening things up moving forward is and always should be paramount, but aesthetically-speaking....No Please.

Again stupid question ^-^
How about stay on 2 version, like it now.
Or make something like this: rd.nexus and desktop.nexus with current old skin?
:D
