jrcramer Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Generally I really like the site updates. The major downside however is the placing of the new things. As someone who is curious what the other users are listening/watching I like the "what it listened now" thing. It is too prominent too big, and feels like an overall banner, which it isn't. It is a cool feature for lurkers, but not the main thing. The googleadd banner takes much place (too much if you ask me). If you also add a new wide box with info, then the real content starts even lower. The New Major works button placing is even worse. The right upper section is for user/profile related stuff. Log in, notifications, etc... Music does not belong there! It should be a category withing the music. If you really want it place somewhere prominent, the bar under the YC logo could do, but that is not entirely right either... So recap. I love the addition of features. And really want to appreciate all the effort that you put in this. But please take some more time to think through where to put that. Learn some gui basics. You are messing something up that was working and clean... Quote
chopin Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Ok, let me think about where I can place the "what's being listened to now" feature, I'm not entirely sure where else to place this at the moment. The trick is putting it in a place where it is obvious, but so that it is not en eyesore. However, I did spend some time this evening adjusting Major Works, and I believe it is now in a more logical place. Thanks for your constructive criticism. 1 Quote
