Deviant Art v6
Same here, It's confusing...but I can get used to it I guess...
There's a new style to it?

God. I didn't even like v5 that much.
Way to spend all that time and money redesigning the site to look like my email inbox, DA.

Yeah, I don't see a huge difference, either.

When I was 12 playing goalie for my soccer team, I got kicked in the nads. With cleats. *That* was better than MySpace.

I'm used to it already.
Hate it. But I'll get used to it. Still hate it though.

It was too early in the morning and I have not had enough coffee to try and understand the DA V6. Once you get used to it, I suppose it won't be that bad, but all I wanted to do was to check up on some notes, what would have taken 2 minutes took 15
If I could figure out how to customize the message center like they were going on about (and not just by making folders), I would be happier with it. Are there instructions somewhere? All I see anywhere is "Oh... it does this, this, AND this!!!! Powerfully!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" but not how to do those things.
Also, the front page is horrid. Just horrid.
It's very Web 2.0ish, but as a casual browser of DA I'm finding it to be alright. The customizing your toolbar thing is a neat gimmick for a couple of minutes. The search seems to be reasonably accurate and fast. I made the bottom panel disappear first thing because it was big and distracting.
FYI, there's a poll on that bottom panel where you can give multiple-choice feedback about the new system.
Yes unfortunately there is not a voting choice of 'I really dislike v6 lets go back to v5!'
So it's kinda biased!
it got changed?
I actually saw it switch over (yes, I confess, I lurk DA).
And I was like.... what the hell?
Took me awhile to figure it all out.
I just hate the way it organizes new items (deviations in particular!) I want my PAGE back! not just a banner at the top with only five deviations in!! I paid for 120 deviations on a page, and I'm back to 5???
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
Well you can hit 'more' and display more at a time. There is also 'next page' so if you're like me and have:
Deviant *Rowrsie | Subscribed | 23,523 Deviations, 7,720 Messages
You can go through each 'page' of however many. But yeah I rather have my 100 to a page too.

In the lower right-hand corner of the Search Results panel, there's a layout chooser labeled 24, 60, and 120. I'm not a subscriber and so can't test it, but I assume that will do what you're talking about. Sounds like it's maybe just been put in a different place than it used to be.
Okay.
This annoys me. When I click on messages, the deviations are RIGHT on TOP.
And sometimes they are very NSFW!!!!
This -must- change.
Yeah, that's my problem, too. From what they were saying, this should be customizable, but I can't figure how at all. The only customizable message thing is the folders (or just turning things off). I HATE the order they put the message page in. HATE IT.

This bugs me too. Gots not problem with NSFW.... I would just like to choose the option....
Well I would rather have deviations on a completely separate page so they don't even come up -at all- if I dont' want to look at them.
Or failing that, if when I set it to 'list view' instead of thumbnail view, that that setting would actually STICK and not go back to thumbs when I reload the page.
I did submit a ticket to the Help Desk about it because I feel it's a make or break issue.
If they don't fix it then I feel my days as a subscriber are over.
I would agree. 1. If I don't want to deal with deviations, I'd rather not have them there all the time. 2. I really would like my changes to stick.
I get the one stop shopping approach they going for that page. It's just not for me.
I dislike it.
I want V5 back.
I'm sure it's just growing pains and I'll get used to it... pretty much because I -have- to as I see no toggle or way to make it go back to the way it was...But still. BLAH.
