Like or hate new bigsoccer

This is pretty terrible. The old skin was very easy to navigate. this is not at all easy to navigate.

 

The avatars are larger now. You need to upload a higher res version.

 

This new interface absolutely sucks. Where's the Spy? Subscribed threads? Archives? The old skin was WAY better. What is Huss thinking??? dislike. thumbs down.

 

This is terrible

and it's EMBARRASSING

 

Clearly it's not done yet.

 

all.... we.... asked.... for.... was..... less..... lag.

why?

WHY?

i would take back the lag if it meant having the old bigsoccer back. bigsoccer has had many changes but all were minor. this feels like a whole different site and quite frankly it sucks.

 

People will get used to this. I expected much worse!

 

My biggest issue is I can't minimize thread groups in Forums I have no interest in. Big negative. Can this be fixed?

 

To the web designers, here's my first impressions:

The new reliance on mouseovers really doesn't translate well to the tablet, especially in the hyperlinks. More color contrast is needed for those of us without the eyes of 20-year-olds to catch those urls.

Way too much gray. So much so that the avatars just pop and absolutely dominate the page. I don't come to bigsoccer to see avatars.

The quote blocks titles are also too bold and attention-getting, it's just a quote, not a subsection of interest.

You'll probably put out a bunch of skins and these complaints will soon be moot.

 

For the record, I like the new upgrade... in the functional sense. But I would have to agree with the poster above about the color and the skin of it all. The quote, rep, and the date and time are hard to see without having to put the mouse finger on it.

 

There should be a choice for neither. I really don't hate it today since they fixed the skin and some of the other features seem to be functional. But I'm not ready to say that I like it, either. Pleasantly surprised is the best I can muster this morning

 

This font is really unreadable. If there's a way to adjust it, I haven't found it yet.

 

Not a fan. Having the multiple forums on the left was so nice and made it easy to navigate. Now I have keep clicking on forums then scrolling down just to simply change forums. Takes way too long.

 

Why did you get rid of the "My Bigsoccer" section? Now we can't see which threads we were subscribed to got recent replies. Please bring back the My BS option.

 

It seems to not be working right this second, but here's the closest I got to that. Mark all forums read, then view watched threads.

 

There is actually a quick navigation menu, although it's not very clearly marked. The icon on the right end of the forum bars at the top and bottom of the thread (Home>Forums>Costumer...) opens it.

Sorry, it's hard to describe the appearance better, but it looks like a square with 3 lines and some dots in it.

 

I like the general changes to how the site is used, though like anything, it is taking some getting used to (navigation for instance). The look is just too light though (white and light greys). Maybe skins will sort that, because some contrast is needed imo. From what I've seen\used so far though, I think the techs have done a good job.
