| I used to like checking out my friends profiles and easily see what they're watching with the stats at top. So yeah as everyone else has said, stats really need to be on top as they were. MyDramaList has the bio on top, and I've never liked that. |

| I like the new additions like the rewatched counter, mean score and being able to add whatever to your linked sites, but those new bars man. Looks like someone only had 5 minutes to finish his excel project. They gotta go. List updates do not need them either. Makes the profile look too messy and uneven. |

TsundereHeart said: no_good_name said: lolkWe fight them, arm the population, storm the servers. OT: Also, since some pictures have to be updated in order to actually use the new layout properly, could MAL please do something about the god awful profile picture updating issues? :| And yes, I've already tried all the "tricks" I almost went blind with this new design, no kiding xD the famous compatibility was right in front of my face and easy to notice but now lol |
Mettie7 said: Based on this thread I think I'm the only one who likes it :v Naw, it's just that people are much more likely to post if they don't like it than if they do like it. It has a few kinks to work out, but I like it overall. |

| You know, I think if they just put stats back on top, took the stupid "collapse arrow" away, and turned the stat bars back to how they were, 3/4 of all these complaints would disappear......... including mine. And soooooo................ STUPID "COLLAPSE ARROW"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!! *&&^%$@!@*&*(*0($#@&%#&*^&@@%*!!!!!!!!!! *whew* just had to get that out. I'm cool now. but seriously....... stupid arrow................. |
   |
| Following the secret meeting, the operation "Turn the site into fucking hummingbird" is progressing steadily. Slight resistances will be oppressed by other raging users who actually liked the site looking like a shitty social network. |
| At first I disliked it strongly but I guess it's not all that bad. I'll have to agree though with napolean86 and many others I suppose, that it would be better without the "collapse arrow" and the stat bars were better off simple and blue. I've always liked them the way they were. Other than that it's nice and it looks like I can get used it, but it's a bit too colourful. I prefer simple things and all the bright and different colours are making my eyes spin. |
 |
| Using the About Me to "expand" the Avatar image IS creative and very cool, but... About Me is for you to write about yourself. About Me isn't "Banner Section", please guys. Well, but of course, if it stays like this, I'll have to transform my About Me in Sasuga Facebook Banner too. |
grandy_UiD said: As far as the "looks" go I kinda got used to it already to be honest. Although we're basically forced to add a facebook style cover photo into the about me section so it doesn't look like complete ass. Would still very much prefer anime and manga stats to be separated from another vertically and not horizontally as seen here: Oiacz said: Reposting my "idea" made on paint and still better It's just so much more asthetically pleasing. I'm still very mad about some of the functionality changes though. First and foremost: - Complete removal of the progress bar for completed series and time spent. If bringing back the bars for days and completed series is out of the question, you should get rid of the bars altogether and thus remove the bar we have right now. Because that one is a pointless piece of shit that serves no purpose at all. - Removal of the edit button from the "recent updates" panel (I don't even understand why this was done in the first place). If both would be changed I guess I could live with this. Just reposting. |
| this is so fuckin nasty get rid of it |
| wow gay |
| I don't see a problem, other than the placement of the about me (which can clash with personal design choices) and removal of edit entries. There should be a fast way to update manually without going into the list or anime/manga entry page. |

| I would love to see an option to revert back into old design. Thank you. |
| "When I first see the new design I thought it was shit, but now I think it's pretty nice." Good for you! But the more I look at that horrible accident called "modern design" the more I hate it. I hated it in the first place and I will never "get used to it". When people say they're getting used to something, it means that they don't like it but try to live with it. But why excactly do I hate the update? Well.. - For "small" resolutions the design is more than just contraproductive. I can't see shit. I don't even see the buttons for my lists! http://i.imgur.com/kJUUvxw.png - The "About me". Why is that thing above my stats? What does it have to do with them? Move them before the comments. -- Yeah, you can make cool banners! And really, that's a cool idea but here we go again with small resolutions! http://i.imgur.com/95FGBQV.png As you can see, you can see nothing. Great. - The links to my lists. Why are they where they are now? Why is there where they were a link to edit my profily now? I don't need this. I want quick access to my lists, that's what this site is about! Lists! - Those ugly colors for that ratio bar. I don't have a problem with this bar in general, but I cannot stand these colors. They don't fit. If they change to soft shades of blue, I'll actually like the new stats. - Last Updates. I like the idea of a progress bar. But it looks like shit. I saw a pretty neat idea on making the bars look better. It was like this: http://i.imgur.com/yxjhe1z.png - The pixelated graphics. Whoever mades this, I wanna punch you in the throat. No, this is not a browser bug! It looked fine before the update! Now, after that, it's shit. Yeah, Firefox' fault, and I am the king of fucking China! Some high as fuck idiot thought it would be a good idea to change the way graphics are being scaled down for no apparent reason. Most say "Change for the sake of change", and yeah, that's it. It's dumb. - I don't read manga. The non-existent stats steal space. This is not okay. (But yeah, that was already a problem before the new design.) - The favorites. Good, we can have ten for everything now. Good, the additional ones are hidden! Great idea!.. Stop doing drugs, it's dumb. I want my favorites on the left side, not in the middle of everything, that's clusterfuck. Also, I don't have manga favs, and no people favs, so they steal space again. Looks really nice! - Friends. I quote hundrets of users now: "This is not fucking facebook." Move that under the clubs or something like that. - RSS feeds. I don't know a single person who uses that shit. And I don't think anyone wants user feeds. They are useless. Fix your shit. |
SliceofHorror said: this is so fuckin nasty get rid of it Word up... my eyes are bleeding. Looks like a ten year old was in charge of designing this shit. At least give us the option to choose the layout that doesn't need eye bleach. |
| The new design is terrible. Decoration sheet is important, do not argue, but to clean up detailed statistics for the banner for the avatar, it's too much ... I can see that I'm not the only one unhappy with these changes, dear developers, please click design changes for those who loved the old design, and does not want to change it . After all, there is a button "to hide the design sheets", displaying only mine. Why not do the same, but for a profile? Thank you. Sorry for mistakes, English is not my native language ... |

| 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 |

Ok.. I'm starting to like this new design. |
 |
| ^ Nice one |
| The new design is fine except the placement of the stats. It should be on top of the page. Besides, I don't like how watching, completed, on-hold, dropped, plan to watch is all placed into one bar. It is better imo to place them in several bars like the previous design. Favorite and characters should be like how they were, which is on the left and without that annoying arrow. The current "Last Anime Updates" and the left side of the profile page looks fine. I would prefer some kind of mix between the old and new style. |

Fixes to make the Profile more bearable after "the Modern★Profile★Update★★Rip★Profile★" |
An expand arrow was added because many users resisted the idea of favorites increasing in the suggestions thread and because the expanded section is quite long. The arrow was the best compromise between users that wanted more favorites and users that did not. If people don't want more favourites couldn't they just, not add more favourites? Like adding a feature that people want is great and all but implementing it in a way no one's going to use makes it pointless. Adding the ability to customize your profile template, like you can with your panel, would fix 90% of these complaints people have. Expand arrows are still shit though. |
 |
| Okay so I think my main issues are: -The links to the lists are in a stupid place. They could be there, sure, but I think they should also be next to each list's status box. So next to the "anime stats" header, there should be a small link to the user's anime list, for example. -I still hate the colour scheme and think it looks messy as fuck. Change the non-blue colours in the bars to different shades of blue and it'd be better. |

push0 said: I agree. I would take the List Updates from profiles and move them to the History tab. Right now, that area is just too busy; there's so much to take in. If it was just Anime/Manga stats side by side and then favourites below, that would be tidier. The loss of convenience would be, in my opinion, minimal.List updates do not need them either. Makes the profile look too messy and uneven. |
