Which aspect of the redesign bothers you most?

Thu Apr 26, 2007 10:56 pm

Just trying to gauge people's response.

The main thing I don't like about it is that it has loads of stuff that I probably wouldn't use at all -- new items and the like. I also have a hard time finding my way around, that's obviously not cool. =/

EDIT: I chose other, by the way.

Some of the new pet poses are really ugly, and the clenched fists are starting to bug me.

The pets, definitely! My poor little uni makes me want to cry :cry:

Notice that, so far, NO ONE has picked the option that says they like it. Only 10, but still. You think TNT could make something that at least 5 out of 10 people like.

I voted for the pets because I would be happy with whatever if they just gave me those back, but I could have chosen 'I just want everything the way it was..' because that was just dandy too.

The pets. So many beautiful pets are now abominations. I loved the old Lutari. Not the new one. Now it's possibly one of the worst pets on the site.

I'm not totally against changing the pets. I mean, to make it easier for them to wear clothing it makes sense to give all colors of the same species the same pose, but ugh, they did it so ugly. Why? It didn't have to be that way.

Examples:

Why aren't Blumaroos on their tails anymore? They just don't look like Blumaroos anymore.

Usuls are not usuls without that cute cross-ed eye expression. Also the usul colors are not as vibrant and shiny as before. Pink and striped used to look expecially 3d and now they are flat-line-drawing-looking.

Shoyrus - My mutant Shoyru looks exactly the same except that they change his face a little bit. Why did they even need to change his face at all? As far as I can see this had nothing to do with clothing and he doesn't look gargoyle-cute anymore.

Bleh TNT, just Bleh.

The new look of the site is great and I love it; the pet redesigns are the only part that I don't love.

Definitely the pet changes are the worst. I'll get used to the layout, and it really isn't that bad (just different), but the redraws are mostly terrible. They aren't drawn well and the fact that 3/4 of them have the same arm/fin/wing stuck out to the side bothers me to no end.

Oh, and the fact that female pets have longer eyelashes bothers me too. I know it's a minor nit-pick, but why should all female pets have to look girly? And it just seems weird on the amphibian pets like the techno.

So...I like the layout and what they did to it, and I don't mind the pets.

But. The problem I have is that all the user lookups/guild layouts are all ruined. ._. *sigh*

There's nothing I like about this - absolutely nothing. I loathe what they've done to my poor pets. The layout is chaotic and confusing. It's killed lookups, shops and galleries.

Change can be good, but change like this? This is a whole 'nother site now :(

My poor Tyrannian Kougra now looks like all the other kougras...just with big teeth...how unoriginal.

i chose pets for the time being. i like some of the redraws but not all of them personally. tnt has said to be patient so maybe we'll get to use new or old images or select a pose to be useable in your lookup? just thinking out loud.

i love the site look now. and for it being tough to navigate i found the old version just as frightening when i first joined so i can't say they did worse. i think it's better because you have more at your fingertips and won't have to rely on the toolbar as much.

I love the new layout and most of the pet redraws.
