Wow there's a lot to be said about the new web format. UGLY and hard to understand. I hope you didn't pay someone for this. Lost my login and can't find my way around at all. I guess you thought it was broke because you tried to fix it. UGLY!!!! Way tooooo corporate and hard to understand. Of course I would be concentrating on a game engine that was easy to make games with instead of a new look. Usually you don't change the look and feel unless you are trying to trick everyone to try the new and improved product. Look we're better!!! Hey whatever.

Yeah, I agree too, unfortunately.

I think the emphasis has been pushed more towards trying to sell stuff, and less to do with supporting existing developers with easy-to-use search/what's new etc.

Having said all that, it's early days and this may be no more than a learning curve issue.

I agree with you Martyn..........as look and feel is very subjective to everyone. And the navigation works fine to me.

Ah it's not that bad -- but I do have to use sunglasses from the glare from all of the white. Any kind of organizational or layout change just takes a little time to get used to. With the usability fixes we're certainly on the path to a much better website altogether.
