I think the new user page is blinding me. Just NO

It looks so BIG... and white. I liked it small and condensed, especially since I have a 22" widescreen monitor. It's like a white sea of blankness. Ugh.

OMG Yes what is with the giant white spaces *shudders*

Guh! I know! I can't stop staring at that monstrosity!
I thought the page loaded wrong the first time I saw it.
Just ew!

Way too much clutter at the top

[identity profile] vwlphb.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
It is like the opposite of user friendly. Too much information, too widely set to comfortably read.

The old one was fine, I don't know why they keep wanting to change it. Last time they tried it the response was a disaster as well

I thought my computer was broken for a moment. Yuck yuck yuckity yuck.

I have so many unnecessary details on my profile now, then a massive massive space to the right of my bio. Just wtf???

[identity profile] patty22.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
i still can't believe it!i hope they'll change it soon!it looks terrible!

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
I want the option to change mine back!

[identity profile] patty22.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
yep,me too!and who doesn't????

do the lj people ever think before doing stuff like this?

[identity profile] sucrelefey.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
There was no need to change it in the first place. I can think of better things to have the staff work on.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously

[identity profile] simonesa.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Mine has been switched over for a while now. I guess I am used to it. I was wondering what everyone was talking about.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Mine just suddenly swithced over today :/

[identity profile] simonesa.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
I had a post from two of my friends saying it was going over today and I did not realize what they were talking about. I guess it is permanent and irreversable.

[identity profile] simonesa.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
from my friend: In case you my flist aren't reading lj_design, there's a new profile page in beta testing. It may go live today. For those of you who have a profile page that you designed yourself, this may or may not affect your coding. At any rate, go have have a look over at lj_design .

It's yucky!

I don't like it!!!

[identity profile] stolenglimpse.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
If it wasn't all white, I think I'd like it better but right now I'm mixed. Takes some getting used to.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it's the massive white space to the right of my bio that bothers me the most I think

[identity profile] sakuracorr.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, eww.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:39 pm (UTC)(link)
There is more focus on statistics now than anything else!

[identity profile] mojotastic.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh I really hate the new userinfo. :(

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
The basic userinfo is ridiculously small, and I don't understand why that is being prioritized now anyway (well with tiny text at least *g*) There was no need to move that to the top, whilst doing god knows what to the the bio section, y'know the section that most users actually care about the most *rollseyes at LJ*

God it's awful! All the lists of interests and friends are cramped up and unreadable now and I want my old easy to read page back. Why do they always want to 'fix' things that aren't broken?

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
The section being devoted to basic info strikes me as the most pointless, not to mention sticking uninteresting stats at the very top when they were fine to stay hidden at the bottom. Who even wants crap like number of comments given priority over the actual bio??? I hate having massive white space next to the bio

[identity profile] nel-ani.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. I don't like it, but then I usually don't like things until I get used to them.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-08 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
I think I could get used to the new friends and interest section, the stats and bio I don't think will grow on me though

It's horrible. I absolutely hate it.

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-08 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
I want the option to change back :/

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/_touched/ 2008-11-07 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's blinding everyone to be honest and it's bad enough that they're not even offering the perma or paid users an opt out.

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/_touched/ 2008-11-08 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you, for sharing the link to this comm with me. Really, livejournal can be so utterly stupid and very discourteous to those of us who actually pay for their services. To force something like this on paid and perma users, without offering up an opting out option, is just...stupid and inconsiderate.

[identity profile] sum1-different.livejournal.com 2008-11-09 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, like wtf is that about anyway?

[identity profile] frelling-tralk.livejournal.com 2008-11-17 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I hate it :/
