New mobile layout looks like candy crush

    New mobile layout with the highlighted sections is wayyy to busy and incredibly distracting. Looks like a game of candy crush on the new posts page.

    More appropriate to call it "Fruity Pebbles".

    Who cares doesnt seem to have effected navigation of the different topics as far as I can tell.

    Embrace diversity!

    E Pluribus Pluribus!
     
    I was in a panic until I figured out the the motivational thread had been moved into the pit... Then all was right with the world.

    The only thing wrong for me so far is my access to the LEO page is gone.
     
    Looks like when a website gets hacked and if you click in the wrong spot you get 35 redirects to a “Congratulations you won” tab.
     
    You'll notice consolidation of duplicate stuff and all that. It flows better in my opinion. It'll take a couple days to learn the flow.

    We're make it through this as one fucked up Pit Family together. I promise.

    every time a website changes it's painful for a day or two as you learn new flow, but I'm almost always much happier afterwards. Websites are such a PITA to change that they are normally changed because of overwhelming userfeedback and so once you learn new flows, it's usually a lot better.

    New flow is fine, nbd can definitely get used to it no problem. All the colors though are little much. They need to be a little more muted. They are extremely distracting and overwhelming when trying to read titles
     
    When browsing ”What’s New” (probably the most common landing page) the new layout makes it difficult to skim. I think nothing should be on the topic line other than perhaps the ”New” tag.

    (I’m trying to train my eyes to skim only the white bold text - the content)

    Just my humble opinion.

    Once we get it up and running we can adjust it, colors are easy

    The tags and filters will make it so you can pick what you want to see via the prefix

    here you have all the colors and choices

    You want the Left Hand Stuff Only :

    So you just click on it, and that creates the new section

    it will stack all the tags you wanted to see and you can add or subtract from the site etc, you can sort it however

    the What's New needs a clean and I seeing it action, I think a bit of muting is necessary that will come

    At least you know, you are not alone,

    If you waited before opening your mouth you would have appeared smarter, instead, you jumped up with a completely wrong and stupid comment because you don't know how it works.

    Sometimes less is more, you can filter now, and just see what you want to see, I seem to recall people asking for this
     
    They don't,
    I get even dumber emails about 2 weeks later, always asking what is wrong with the site

    Nothing wrong with the site, it's acting exactly as it should, the problem must be you, maybe you should leave

    Filter was much needed and great improvement. Thanks for all the effort you have put into the site lately.
     
    I’m just busting balls, I hope everyone knows. I love this site and am grateful to have we can still buy sell and trade on. Thanks!

    Those filters are money. Love it.

    Click on what I circled. If you have access to the mil section it will show up in a drop box and then you can access it.

    I’ll be “that guy.” I like the color code.

    Last few minutes, I found myself not using the prefix, but after a quick check on which color code was which sub forum, I just scroll down the main PX page, and cover them all in one lick.

    Let’s say I don’t check the PX for a couple days, then I can use the prefixes to check each sub forum with more detail. :unsure:
    I like it.
     
    Its the Snipers’ Hide. Acceptable colors are limited to...

    FDE (go ahead, put some magpul furniture on your scar)
    OD (all shades)
    Sand
    Khaki
    Tan
    Coyote
    Black
     
    The new site design is making me look at other dudes’ butts.
     
    Change is good...if you are homeless and looking for a handout! :unsure:

    Rainbow Brite. Is the site turning gay? :coffee::unsure::mad:

    The progressives are coming, the progressives are coming. :p

    It's all a joke, right? :ROFLMAO::cool:
     
    I am gonna discourage a shitload of you all

    I already said the colors will tone down, when your accounts no longer work right don't complain it will be a new change,

    bunch of you short sighted people are assholes and it will show
     
    Kinda reminds me of how the wife complains when they move shit around in the grocery store.
