(though I don't know if this will cause problem with anime/manga that have extremely long names.

well, extremely long titles would break the line anyway even if there wasn't a date there :u
but otherwise, the date could be placed down on the same line of status/score (even if it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense, cause you could confuse one date with the date of the previous anime/manga)

Does anyone have a way of putting the favourites in the left column where friends are now? I think RedUbs demonstrated it a couple of days ago and it looked soooooo much better.

Don't think there is as of yet at least

It's the one thing I'm still waiting for someone to figure out :s

I hope one of the coding gods makes it soon!

Hey Xinil, why don't you hire these guys who actually know what they're doing?

I'm much happier with how my profile looks now, thank you very much to everyone who's contributed towards making this awful update look better:



Now we just need Friends added as a tab like the recs and reviews, the favourites put back on the left, and I think this'll be the best of a very bad situation.

If somebody made a userscript to put it in the left panel, I could try to make a stylesheet that makes it look like it did before the update, or maybe make a few variations if people have better ideas.

Only the person making the userscript might have some trouble knowing if they did it correctly because when I put it on the left in my layout example image (using HTML, not a userscript so that wouldn't work anyway), at first, the images are of a size of 0px by 0px, which then had to be fixed with CSS.

The funny thing is if you click the reviews/recs/etc tabs, the buttons still show up like before at the top, but not when you're at the home tab :s

thinking of creating a thread about the profile "Unofficial" improvements, into the Creative Corner forum

would it be better to have a separate thread?
since this one originally was about feedback about the "Official" profile, and we may have gone a bit offtopic with all the scripts talk

If you are willing to start it off and include all the unofficial improvements we've covered on this topic?
This thread starts to get unproductive towards the end of the 3rd page, mainly because we've covered most of the improvements people want (not including bugs that need fixing).

Yes, that'd be a good idea. It might help encourage other users to contribute their designs too. I know user sunnysummerday is currently working on a design and it looks great, so it'd be nice if everyone was able to share ideas and advice.

I prefer that navigation bar to the new one on the left panel, seems easier to follow, but maybe I just need to get used to the new one. So I'm just glad it's not gone completely yet.

found a curious glitch with the bars sheet (dunno if it shows only on firefox or not)
it's clearly visible on this profile:
http://myanimelist.net/profile/Felipsu
in the stats bars sometimes the "Plan to watch" or "Plan to read" bar becomes very very light instead of being grey

on http://myanimelist.net/profile/Oiacz
instead, they're both light


and here
http://myanimelist.net/profile/Plinius
there is a gray bar also into the "plan to watch" last update

guessing in some cases the bar lenghts go past the container size and overflow under the other bars, or they just don't load (or load when they shouldn't) for some other reason

Maybe there could be a little less space between About Me and Statistics, and the colors in Statistics could be less saturated since some people here seem to hate bright colors outside of anime. Aside from those nitpicks, I think it looks great, and I'm satisfied with how my profile looks.

Images are downscaled and then handled by the CSS to render it. For people with Stylish, this is an easy fix.

what's the fix? disabling "image-rendering: optimizeQuality;" doesn't change anything for me, or am i understanding you wrong? *dumb* ._.

this is what I have for my stylish:
  .profile .user-favorites .favorites-list .list .image, .profile .statistics-updates .image img {
    image-rendering: initial;
  }

progressbars on the side are fine but the old stats were far less shitty to look at and read. Revert the rainbow bar to the old blue ones or give us the option to toogle between the two.
The latter would be preferable as that would please everyone.

that didn't do anything for me in opera 12 or chrome, even with an !important tag :(

edit: it seems "image-rendering: optimizeQuality;" was already disabled in chrome. using inspect element showed me that it's an invalid code, so it wasn't being recognised. chrome looked fine anyway other than being blurry. disabling it in firefox got rid of the pixel'y-ness, but opera 12 seems to be too old and disabling it does nothing. still super pixel'y. awesome for me!

Opera is generally not very great when it comes to CSS. They're usually way behind on support for it.

Chrome on the other hand seems to have some sort of opposite reaction to image-rendering so I dunno how "initial" would work on Chrome (I use Firefox) so it's possible it either doesn't need it or can't be fixed.
i don't get why they chose to load 50+ full size images on every profile rather than making smaller versions like they always have :/
Yeah well I assume it's just a prototype thing. I hope they don't extend this to any other pages because it could really eat up bandwidth, especially on pages heavy with thumbnails like Seiyuu pages.

the last updates, see if some of the bugs in this thread got solved
Xinil said:
The following bugs were fixed today:
  • Completed manga entries weren't showing as completed on list updates.
  • The width on the profile picture is now 225 pixels again, and is no longer being scaled.
  • Bug fixed for characters in the favourites section: if the char only appeared in manga, the profile was displaying the anime with the same ID, not the manga entry.
  • The profile counter is increasing again (note: profile views were never visible on the old profile design).
  • Re-watching displays correctly in the last anime updates again.
  • URL for "Forum posts" is correct again.
  • Clubs counter only sums public and private clubs.
  • The Statistics URL works on all profile tabs now.

Cons:
1. It's ugly.
2. The old one wasn't broke.
3. The only improvement it could have used was extra favorite slots. Now there is this ugly drop down arrow to look at them all.
4. The same goes for custom designs people have spent hours, maybe days working on.
5. It's ugly.

Pros:
1. I like about the new design is the new format for list updates. However, I'd prefer the ability to customize that. For example, I don't read manga all that often. I'd like the ability to customize that section out similar to the way the panel can be customized.
2. I like that the mean is now on the profile and that I don't need to look at people's list to see it.

Suggestions:
1. Return to the previous design.
2. Return to the previous design while keeping some of the pros.
3. Implement an option to display the old one, like a 'classic view'.

[u]Good.[/u]
Drop down menu for about me section on profiles that exceed 1000px.
Statistics bar more accurately shows total entries in each list with an accurate depiction of how much is in each section
In recent anime/manga updates, shows users' scores and episode counts

[u]Bad.[/u]
Animelist and Mangalist buttons are below comment, message, respond buttons. Horrible placement idea. Animelist and Mangalist buttons should be placed directly below Profile Picture for easier access.
Drop down arrow on favorites. Favorites should've stayed on the left. No drop down arrow for this section. Left of page looks incredibly empty now.
Triangle comment, message, request buttons. Make the buttons a bit smaller if you have to. [u]Just have 'em all in one line.[/u]
Stat bars under each entry in recent updated anime/manga history pretty useless as well. No accurate measure for series that have unknown episode count.
Unable to see your own history if you have list set to private. Honestly


tl;dr
[u]Fixes Desired[/u]
Allow the option to show or hide forum posts, reviews, recommendations, blog posts, and/or club links individually
Allow the option to hide friends list. It can already be found under the tab for my page and i do not want my friends display pics to be present on my main page.
[u]Allow option to choose between new or old layout[/u]
[u]Allow option to show about me or statistics first.[/u]
[u]Put favorites back on the left. No drop down arrow for this.[/u]
Allow option to choose a different color for each statistic in the statistics bar.
[u]Allow spoiler for comment section[/u]

That's all I can think of for now.
