Skrik said: Atleast make an option to revert to the old design. This one is god awful. This please, I dont want to make a new layout |

Vaixell said: Using scripts isn't an option for me. It only changes the layout for yourself, that's like I lie to myself. The new design is crap, and even if I use a ton of scripts, it still is. And to be honest, those scripts aren't a solution, just a complicated workaround. I rather live with that profile as it is now and complain about it, but that's just me and I understand why people use these scripts, though. thanks for understanding it is anyway only a temporary fix in the while MAL decides to do something about this all (If they will), never said to stop pushing them to actually fix things about the lie, internet is just data, you can look at it in any way you fancy, there is not a more true way, just "Official" and "Unofficial" |

Sangaz said: You got to be kidding. Go be creative elsewhere and refrain from commenting on things like layouts if neat and logical is boring to you. Do you even understand what is the purpose of UI? Ever heard about functionality or aesthetics?Neat and logical sounds boring to me. I like having the opportunity to get a bit creative in photoshop. Now wonder we got this piece of shit if people like that were the source of "ideas and feedback". It's scary how often this is very relevant:  |

i'll just leave this here.. >_>.. ps. i hate all the changes made to the profile, MAL team, but thanks for giving me something to do! (ง˙▿˙)ง |

I updated my profile as well, but I can't see the changes yet. It's been taking a day or two for my profile picture to update across the CDN. -___- M00ner said: Well not all of us are experts on how to do those techy stuff. It's not that techy. You basically just take or create an image, scale it to 1042px width, then cut out your avatar from the top left at a width of 225px, and cut out the body image from the top right at a width of 800px... Actually, it is kind of techy... You don't have to make your profile look like these though. You can put anything—your links, texts, etc—in the About Me space like mayukachan did.  But if you put too much up there, people here will probably hate you. |

Now that's what websites are all about, banners and shit. Some of you really need to lighten up. This change isn't that serious or earth-shattering.

| After the update the pictures don't load anymore (avatars, signatures and display pictures). Is it just me? |
| Meh, while you can do some dank ass banner like combos for your profile still don't like it that much, maybe cuz it's myanimelist and not facebook I guess. |

 "In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH |
| @HandsomeMan you know, when you posted the link to your profile the avatar was still the same and it looke like Frank was grabbing her... |

| My profile looks fine. Not a big deal. Not worth getting worked up about. I don't live on this site. |

aikaflip said: Well, if the only thing you're capable of doing with profile is looking at it, I can see why you like new update because it lets you put an image on top and has many colors.You've been here just to look at profiles? I thought this site was for talking with like minded people, and for providing a database to find and catalog anime and manga. However, I used the profile page because of its functionality. Immediate access to data, ability to check up on other people, what they watch, how their lists change, ability to quickly edit stuff I was watching/reading at the moment. I could go to my anime list or my manga list with one click. I could monitor progress of me and my friends. Everything was tidy, clear, apparent at first glance. You know, the profile page was USEFUL. Right now you can put a banner on top. Or an image. Or describe what you ate on breakfast. Hooray. |

It usually takes a day or two for my profile picture to update across the CDN. -___- Yep this is one thing that always annoyed me about MAL's database. I already reverse searched your banner though, so I got a sneak-preview haha, looks good. |
Han-yuu said: So i guess there is no hope to get stats on top and "edit" button under the recent updates. Admins shouldn't post these update topics when they're not gonna listen. Just make changes and let everyone complain in spam forum. I hate my profile page. alpha_shadow said: I would love to see an option to revert back into old design. Thank you. +1 +2 |

Same, and the new profiles haven't stopped me from doing that. Yeah, I have to scroll down for half a second to see statistics. Big deal. I could monitor progress of me and my friends. I use this for that. http://myanimelist.net/myfriends.php Everything was tidy, clear, apparent at first glance. And I thought I was obsessed with neatness... |
HandsomeMan said: Zeando said: @HandsomeMan you know, when you posted the link to your profile the avatar was still the same and it looke like Frank was grabbing her... lmao really? MAL be crazy like that. It's still that way.  |
Lucumo said: HandsomeMan said: lmao really? MAL be crazy like that. It's still that way. LMAO that is also good don't you think ;-) But really I'm not sure how the database works. Most likely those who see my old picture have old cache in their system. Because after clearing all my browser settings I see the updated picture. Plus it's already on CDN and on MAL database; and the new picture shows up in club comments where it's visible, so it must be on your end. |

Are they going to fix the thumbnails? it's killing me. |
aikaflip said: Their CDN has been slower than usual lately due to issues. I guess they use different servers for different regions? I see your new profile fine. Not just that. I'm sure I'm not the only one who keeps getting randomly "error 500" when browsing MAL, which I guess signifies that their bandwidth is reaching the limit and traffic is higher than it should be (not surprising since now masses upload new picture to appease to the new layout). Usually clearing all settings on the browser then uploading a new picture from that browser helps to speed things up for me. Otherwise it usually always uploads instantly, it's just that the users can't see the update straight away. Also, I usually have dozens of profile views daily but it's been stuck or increased just by "1" a day since the new update. |

alpha_shadow said: STILL no option to revert back? what are you doing mal? sleeping with your waifu? |
| Is there a way to revert back? I'm not saying anything bad about the new design, it's just that I enjoyed the old layout so much that I don't want to change. |
| Thank u! I really like the new profile desing *o* |
 |
| I know no one is gonna read my comment after 2000 ones, but I still think it would've been easy to integrate the earlier panel customization, where you could move the boxes around, into profile as well. But what's hip in web design these days is "unified design" aka "let's assume our users are complete morons". |

There are two major errors in there: Percentages must always be represented as positive values (every highschool kid knows this), so if they wished to set 50% as the zero, you call the 0~49% range something else but not "-20%". What is minus twenty percent? A reduction of 20% in a given initial value. But according to MAL, the new initial value is 50%, so it's 20% less of 50%? See how this is retarded? The second inconsistency is linguistic. With the word "compatibility" you can have someone compatible with your (0~100%) and someone incompatible with you (0%). All the "negative" values are inserted into the 0%, since, if they aren't compatible, then they're obviously incompatible. MAL seems to think you can have someone "less than incompatible" with me. I understand they made this with the intention of increasing the resolution but the option they chose is just plain stupid. Just add more decimal values if you want better accuracy for fucks sake. |
| Well, it's not completely horrible like last.fm redesign and I barely use this site anymore, so I don't mind. |
 |
| So much butthurt, i like how we can finally add up to 10 favorite animes now about fucking time |
| my eyes.. it hurt... and it takes a shit ton of time to upload profiles... |
| Remind me of an old Facebook but I don't see why not, I think it's cute. Change are necessary sometimes, the old one look basic much. And I like how you can add more favorite anime dude about fcking time. |
 |
| It's annoying having to click to the statistics section, but oh well. EDIT: Just found someone else using a spoiler tag to tidy up the About Me section. Pretty nifty. |

| Looks like staff is going for battle of attrition. Voices for are so stupid no sane person will be able to visit this thread for long and after some time it will consist mainly of things like "me liek, change good because different, different good because new, oooh, more favourite, wooow me has big banner, uuu shiny"... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
xbobx said: Percentages must always be represented as positive values (every highschool kid knows this) I study math and it's first time I hear of this bs, lol. Although I agree that it makes little sense when in compatibility. What exactly is 0% representing now? Somewhat compatible? Sounds kinda stupid next to a zero. |
 |
| Pretty neat, but could use thinner statistics bars. Also, statistics should really be above the "about me"-section. It's the most interesting information on someone's profile, if you ask me. |
 |
| i will say i really dont like it, and woud like a option to revert back to the old... The new version is a big messy site, i want a easy manageable and clear site.. so you easy can see whats on it and the info, and same if i go to one of my friends page. New update i put in to my page or friends page is the importan part. Honestly who ever designed it clearly got no idear how to design a good homepage, so you easy can see the information and easy can get a overview. It really look like some teenager designed it and said hey this look cool lets do that...it is easy to see the cool factor was the main thing in the new design, insted of the importan part.. wich is provide a page were people can manage their anime/manga and their friends can easy go tjeck out what new their friend put on, if someone wanted the site difrent or up the cool factor of it, they woud do so them self. |
