I know that, but it's still kind of odd

No, it's just called change.

No, it's just called change.

No its called being redundant. That window is completely unnecessary on pc. all the info displayed there is already visible on the posts themselves. clicking ur name should instantly just take me to your profile.

No offence, but I switched straight back to the dark style.

Can you not make it look super boring and the alert/notification thing in the top right not so "in your face"? No offense to the creators, but the new website looks way too overly simplistic and flat, and i feel it just ends up making it look ugly and the overly clean look makes it look like not as much time was put into it.

I think it looks pretty nice.

Maybe just reduce the icon size a bit, it feels clogged on mobile.
other than that it's pretty nice.

Maybe you guys could make the fixed banner on mobile smaller like in the old theme? It takes up about 10% of my already cramped screen while providing 0 additional benefit.

Compare to the much smaller and more useful banner on the old one:

I am not a big fan of how big these are

They take up a little too much room for my liking.
Otherwise I am getting used to everything else and the new look is growing on me.

 

[DarkIrata]

it is ok. It somehow give me the feeling, much space was wasted but it is ok

 

[Kioku]

Add me to the list for the top banner in mobile. It's way too big. Need something a little more subtle and appealing. Other than that, I can't complain. Wish we had more variety.

BUG:

On iPhone 4 I have this bug:

In the meantime I used the old theme

Edit: bug fixed

My personal thoughts on the new site design:

the old theme wasn't overcomplicated at all. I can see it being a bit messy, but like, even the smallest things, like the old logo at the top left now has a one color background in the new one. Things that had shapes to them just seem way too much of a "flat monochromatic rectangle" feel. Not to mention things look more like they tend to waste more space to an extent. No offense to the designers, but it looks like more time should have been put into making the site seem at least a bit more unique and less "in your face". It seems the mobile side of things got more consideration than the PC side of things, but thats just from what i've seen so far.

Huge fan of the new design! As a web designer myself I love the flatness and the use of vectors. I can't live without a dark theme though so I made my own, but thanks and good job nonetheless

On mobile, make it so when you respond to alerts you don't have to click the thread name but just the alert in general.

One thing I think some people would really enjoy is the option to change the width of columns. For example I'd like to be able to adjust the left side to only take up say 50% so that leaves the middle area (news for ex.) with more room to display content. This really only becomes an issue when you don't limit the maximum width and I'm aware you could just download an addon and do this all myself but I think more flexibility wouldn't hurt.

Also when you go to edit a post like I'm doing now could we have edit/report be just a simple click away instead of having to go through a menu? I think the older theme did this and the way you have it now just seems more tedious.

I don't understand how "flatness" feels fitting on a PC environment. maybe on a mobile environment, but not a PC one.

Some icons need to be updated. Here is an example of the current "New Thread" icon (on the bottom) and a new one I made within 10 seconds in PS.

Flatness fit everywhere, has nothing with screen sizes to do. It's just the current trend and it'll die out eventually as well. It's also an absurd idea to maintain a flat and vectorized design for mobile devices and at the same time, for no reason, use jpeg graphic elements on PC screens.

The only thing I noticed is that the Customize Portal button is missing (and I still can't remove the News item there).

Yeah, they put and enforced a limit for signature sizes...
