I have the name gap problem too but it doesn't seem like its a big deal tho. I use firefox and it seems really good so far, just got to get used to the new goodies. the thing I like is the picboard has its own tab and the all instant save which is awesome and a time saver. good work on the new layout Haku

^ all instant save?

[fallstheshadow]

My first reaction was "whoa, something's different here" >.<
I'm still sleepy.
But other than that, I'm having no problems with IE7, you must have fixed all of them already.
Also, the front page seems cute and tiny in the sense of the text. Anyway, sorry if this is irrelevant. Thanks for all your hard work!

David Snow: Thanks, fixed.

BTW--- I LOVE the new design!!!!

[aldrin]

it was awesome. though it seems to take more time to load now (since im downloading at the same time.. that's why its noticeable haha)

[toxic025]

whoops it says update not collect pics. but still a good idea tho.

but the friends thing doesn't fly with me. but it does bring in revenue to run the site so cant complain

[toxic025]

when I'm looking at peoples profiles the tabs are gone.

[ReiNa.than]

I was surprised. I have't noticed anything drastically different, so it's alright.

[CowSuitGirl]

It's... ok I guess. Now it's more than just a forum. It's everything.

Sorry, but I don't really see any differences apart from the picboard and friends tab which are'nt really that amazing(to me), but it's all good , as long I can keep posting this is the best website in the world!

[Shakey_Jake33]

Am I right in saying that the 'friends' section is not directly related to the site, but is a third party thing?

[Klokken]

Where's the pics? That was my first reaction... Then I noticed the Hello!Online Friends thing and realized it was something new, which led me to take a look at the top of the page, and I noticed the Picboard and Friends tabs. It'll take a while to get used to, but I guess this way it loads faster. *shrugs*

But I really like the optional views in the picboard.

Hey, not bad although the front page being text only is a bit boring. I kinda liked the pictures of the picboard in the front page as it saves me having to click on the picboard tab to check the new pics everytime I come here. Also, I find that sometimes, some of the fonts on the tabs are a bit squished. Think I used the attachment system to attach a pic of that.

I like the new design, but the front page is a little cluttered imo. Too many lists and spearators...

I'd agree with that. The front page really feels compressed/busy? I don't know, harder to digest I guess.
It doesn't need all that white space on the sides, but could use more pics to break up the text. Advertising is a necessary evil, but the Friends integration is a bit off putting(I hope your making a ton of money off it). It would be nice if it could be labeled as a separate entity/advertiser.

Everythings at least a little different...It's a lot to do at one time, maybe to much.

The front page is look better but I'm agree with @DarkL1ghT about pictures of the picboard in the front page. For me, it'll be better when I come to front page and see H!P member's pics not Hello Online Friends pics, it shouldn't be there.

I use Firefox and have no problem so far.

Picboard descriptions are squished in the latest Firefox 3 build.

I recognise the necessity of advertising, especially on a website such as this which probably has greater traffic than most JPop websites around, so I have no fundamental objection to the 'friends' stuff, and it certain fits in with the site's design much better than some nasty ad banners would, which would tarnish the highly polished, orderly look of the site in general. I think I am concerned that some people will mistake the 'Friends' thing as directly a part of H!O, rather than the (necessary and preferable) advertising revenue that it is. Hopefully people will become aware of this.

Focusing in the positives though, the Picboard is great and will probably become my first stop when I visit the site, the front page is tidier and easier to read, it's generally a winner in my eyes.

[Whiteshade]

I just checked out Hello! Online Friends lol. It's pretty easy to figure out that it's NOT directly related to H!O. It looks and acts like a standard personals site. Plus, you can easily recognize that the members there aren't actually members on H!O.

When reading some of the blogs, using FireFox.



And when using IE7.

i think this is something that should be fixed:
http://www.hello-onl......12 (2008.02)

Basically the screenshots for the torrents are really not placed right, and seem to look out of line. I think it should be fixed.

The same happens with my browser, and I'm using Opera. Although, it allows me to 'force' the content to fit into my screen.
