Going to bed but a quick take on the new profile look...

What I like:


  • The stats - those colors are really pretty! And easier to see at a glance
  • The anime history, now we watch-graph, colors, and ratings. Good addition
  • Affinity
  • More favorites! yay
  • Just the overall look...I think I'm in the minority though


What I don't like:


  • The abouts being the first thing on the page. It makes it difficult because I care more about stats and favorites (my own and others) so that means I have to scroll. Boo
  • The position of the anime/manga list buttons. I think at the top made more sense. Again less scrolling, less searching...
  • Comments - I don't really care about them much anymore but the comments just don't fit as much with the rest of the layout imo


Suggestion: Move the about section below the favs / the stats. People tend to have really long ones and I'd think most are more interested in the stats/favs than the about section.

Overall, nice work Xinil and team!

sorry, I appreciate the effort but I don't like it.
The old design was simple but more organized, much better ... also this colorful looks like a mess for my eyes x.x

please make a option to use the old design, MAL for me is a forum/database and not a social network like facebook :(

I also agree an option to revert it to the old format would be nice for some time... at least till we get accustomed to this layout.

And how would we get accustomed with the new layout if we'll be using the old one?


Well... not everyone will be using the old one. What I'm saying is that simply springing this out of nowhere is what caused the ruckus. Give an option, let them start using it and then generally let them simply forget about the old one in time.

Hey look finally a part of the update that I do like!

Not bad, I liked the old one better but I guess I'll get used to it. I think an option to customize the profile would be a good idea ( i.e where to place favorites and such )

So if your favorite is from an anime with a long title its picture gets stretched




also the size for all the favorites and last list updates pictures is bad. They should be kept at the smaller 21px × 32px or be changed to the bigger Panel size of 50px × 75px At their current size the pixilization is awful.

and for side by side comparisons if anyone wants it

Well even in U.K and France a lot of people are still sleeping. But yes a lot North America is either asleep or going to sleep soon. Pacific Coast would still be awake but there is still Canada, South America, The Caribbean.

"So, today I feel like using the new profile version."

If I had an option, I would choose the old one and forget that they ever created the new one. And if they removed completely the old one, I would make a ruckus again.

Fav's pictures are blurry, the title of what anime/manga a character comes from is nonexistent if it's a manga-only character for some reason, took off not-specified as gender for whatever reason, took off list views... For whatever reason, customized comments are now not customized....

But hey at least we can have up to 10 favorite anime and manga now. That's the only plus I see so far.

What is that? Who made that new amazing design? Whoever did it, [sarcasm]this person has a very bright future in the sphere of web development.[/sarcasm]

No, seriously, are you kidding me? Why not hire more moderators, update the DB, make this website, as an anime database, better than it is now? But what you did is nothing but an attempt to show that you actually care about that website. I beg your pardon, but that new design shows the opposite.

Also, why not make 2 page designs available for our users? You will see that only a few will actually use that “new super fabulous design.”

What. Just. Happened.
Some good ideas, mostly bad ones. Favs pretty much at the bottom and the "about me" section at the top is a big no-no. Also, no need for a "statistics" botton if the statistics are already in the profile by default.
Not completely awful, so good job, staff.

It's not bad, but I did prefer the previous layout.

The best parts about this layout are the extended favorite lists, and the overall rearrangement of the page is a little odd, but I'd say it's more accessible overall.

The main problems are that the images are a little buggy, and the placement of the about me section. I honestly think that it would be much better if it was left below the Anime stats and last updated. And the favorites should've remained in it's original place. In the side bar.

Well, I can add more favorites now. xD There are a couple more things that I like about the new profile changes, but there are also a few things that I dislike about it. :/ I'll get used to this change, as long as there's a welcome addition. ;)

Some of the changes are good...some not so good.

- Having to drop down to view all favorites is cumbersome. I honestly wouldn't mind if they were all capped at 5, but people would probably riot if that happened...

- Instead of progress being color-coded in statistics, I think it would be more useful if rating distribution were reflected by the bars instead. For anyone who's watched/read over 100 days it ends up pretty much being a solid blue bar anyway...

- Statistics doesn't need a link on the left when you're looking right at it already.

- History links should be under the Anime Stats and Manga Stats respectively.

- However much the "comparability rating" algorithm has been tweaked, it still doesn't seem very accurate. The fact that you still cant search for users based on affinity rating already makes it a pretty useless feature anyway.

- I agree with other users that Statistics and Favorites should be above the "About Me" segment. Those are the things you look for first before reading someone's life story.

Other than that I think the new design is pretty good.

Fooled around with it a bit in Paint and I definitely feel as though the order should be Stats, Favorites, and then About Me. Or maybe I'll need to cram this screenshot into my about me section to make it feel that way.
