i liked to old style much more for many reasons...

The old one looked better because I have 2 problems with the new one.

1) In the DLDB I can use 4 Map Spotlight spots but in the Lates news section only 3 are viewable.

2) I got a Big slab of grey on the page and it makes everything look the same color. It just lookes dull because almost everything is now gray.

The old one was cool, but the +,- are pretty cool wink.gif

Map Spotlight is kind of cool, but it should be removed.

I liked the "latest uploads" part of the last one. That's the main reason why most people found out about certain maps without having to randomly search a section they are interested in.

I liked the old format, because I could turn off the latest maps feature whenever I wanted to.

I do not like this new format. I likes the recent submitted maps at the left. Now it just looks weird.

Also, before I don't automatically log on everytime I open Firefox. My user name and password are filled in and I need to press "Log in" Not I need to use my fingers and click TWICE! (j/k about this part but stilll....)

You can still do that you know. It takes up less space from before.


Heres the deal:

Users online - Just see that in the board index. Theres no point in having it take up all that space for nothing.

Latest files - We're going to make a section later with the 20 latest files, tutorials and everything. It will be infinately better then having it on the portal.



The new portal is a LOT more clean, hense not having any of the garbage on it.

Don't like it? Too bad smile.gif I guess you have to do an extra click eh?

Usually I'm democratic, not this time.

If you guys think users online and a little latest files display makes all the difference, go ahead to some site that has that.

It's just we have too much room now, it seems to dull and blank. There's nothing on the portal, just map spotlight and news. While if you look at the board index, you see all the info, "Last Posted," info about the forum and what it's for.

It's not the same anymore sad.gif

it looks dull... The DLDB on the left side was really handy because as soon as i loged in I was like O look a new map is in and would go check it out.

Also I liked seeing who was online it made it look really neat but now its dull and all black and gray exept for the top...

Mabe add an option into "control pannel" Where you can chose what style you want?

Simplicity is sometimes better than complexity. In the future, I will add a custom start page (map spotlight will show up on that page) so you can choose to see the latest files, news, or whatever.

ADDITION:
I'll show you a fine example where simple is better:

http://www.google.com

Now, isn't it so much better than the clutter on other search engines?
