DaV5 Disapointments?

~milesj:iconmilesj: reports, August 8, 2006
I dont know how everyone else feels on this subject, but to me I was expecting the design and layout to be a bit better in some areas (referring to chat, forums, profile, settings, etc).

Those areas of the site still look or resemble closely to the v4 layout, and I think that it should not be that way. Every area of the site should be redone, the old v4 mixed with the new v5 headers and footers (which are great btw) does not look good in the least bit. Even though the profile page has been changed a tad, the colors arent great, I would suggest that the colors from the news page or the home page should be used globally.

I dont know if the staff is planning on changing these at a later time, or leaving them the same, but I was wondering how everyone else feels on this?

Devious Comments

:icondaniel-hunt:
To be honest, I think the opposite about the colours. The ones from user pages, in my opinion, should be used across the site, on deviations and news pages.

The off-white colour's just too hard on the eyes >_<.

:iconchalkley3:
chat needs to be updated. it looks random without the v5 look

--
Relax, I'm a professional
:iconspot:
I can say this with almost the same perspective as you since I had absolutely NOTHING to do with v5.

It is my understanding that all those areas are being saved for v5.5. So they are going to be updated, just not this moment.

Hope that helps. :)

:iconoggyb:
As far as I'm aware the old v4 looking parts are those that haven't been upgraded yet, and should look fine with the release of v5.5. I know lots of people have issues with colours and typo for a start, which is why I'm going to pimp this deviation by =mindfuckx: [link] .

Here's my Website, and my Blog.
:iconpres-requin:
I know exactly what you mean. Before I left for a break there were talks of a new scheme. When I saw the intro I was expecting some absolutely mega redone, cool, hard-worked design that would blow us away. It was good, but when I saw v4 popping up everywhere randomly I kind of got confused to whether it was finished or not yet???

i feel let donw by the fact that the thumb share forum is kind of pointless now you cant share thumbs :) but the layout and design is nice

:iconguardianodin:
This new layout is awful. I was getting ready to renew my sub, but now I don't think I will. The pages are to blocky and fonts are huge. It feels to closed in.

--
I Draw Stuff...
:iconstygians-fool:
Personality, I'm finding it difficult to nav and search through the site. The font and whiteness makes everything appear unwelcoming (I had a few friends who only recently saw the site and too, found it unwelcoming. Sort of "too big" to be a community site).

If v5 was some mega blow-up version where -everything- was completely different, I'd have considered whether it was for me or not, changing every year. It seems overpowering to me. o_o

:iconwatermonster:
Most of my dissapointments come from the redesign of the front page. I really liked the columnar layour, with my daily deviations showing one-by-one, a shoutboard, and news down.
