I was so surprised seeing the new look. looks awesome

Hate it-it look's ghastly

Light grey lettering on a white background is a really, really bad idea.

The new look sucks ass.

They are still working on it. It will take a minute to get it exactly the way it should.  Please be patient while we work through this

yup, hate it too... looks unfinished, or that there is a scripting error, Don't know about you guys but it looks squashed. 

Please see my post above

Setup work's and look's fine but the colour's ? Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh

Please see my post above

erm Stacey... dear...

erm... you know... those of us that use custom code... well... it's a right screwup for me right now and it's not a "wait till it's done " problem LOL ... more a "could you turn off the custom code please until we're done..." thing...

I kind of like it so far (but I'm easy to please heh)

but what's with the big gap above the text ?

LOL ... I was already going nuts thinking my Firefox would acting up on me. Looks good so far.

Smeagol-What did you do with that bloody ring ? I need it to hide from the nasty colour's...

oh.. and some warning would have been nice... looks on front page and sees nothing...

*and everyone else getting several inserted lines on each post as well?

On site notification ( new post's ) not working here but email message is...

Open contest's/contest's result's page's writing is covering images

i like the layout, though can't say i am terribly enamored with the white boxes all over the place.

perhaps an off white could be considered?

I hate the new look!

I want renderosity back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks to me like the re-design is to make the site more s-phone/tablet friendly.  Since I often buy off the mobile device while on the road, that's a plus to me.  That said, I have noticed that a few pages where the text is badly washed out due to things like blue text on a grey background... my inbox being one of them, unfortunately.

wince

I'll wait and see what it looks like when the issues are fixed.

yeah..I know they are working still..but please ..in site mail I can not read the text. My old eyes cant see the text. It is too close to being the same color as the background..

How do we find the clerance section now?

can't read my inbox mail text at all... why do you guys keep making it harder for us to use the site?? I could not even figure out the market place "thumbnails"... found them by accident... hate hate hate it...

oh well, needed to save money.   :(

Good catch.  It's in the "filter by" drop down menu, but a direct link would be nice too.

Yuk!!!   Hate it already!!!!

bring back old theme please!!!

DOM inspector says each post begins  by inserting a image, which accounts for the extra spacing.   The CSS is being globally applied by bootstrap.css to the image tag which is setting a height of auto.

So techincally two errors.  Why the null image (image is named null) and why use global level CSS styling?

The text on the dark blue is fine. Unfortunately I have a 23" monitor which leaves a huge amount of that ugly blue that makes me seasick when I scroll.  Hopefully I can fix it with firefox.

I stopped looking in on DAZ forums for this very reason, if it ain't broke don't fix it!!!!

'Nuff said....

Hell, now Renderosity looks like DAZ3D.

Why on Earth would you want to emulate that death-spiral of a company?

Barf.

Change is always good. If nothing else, this makes everybody wake up and take notice.

It is now just as user friendly as FB - not what I would call a comfortable setting for digital artists, but it is certainly sterile and professional.  I'm sure we'll all adapt and it may bring in more newbies.  Nice try by IT and I hope it helps boosts user numbers.

Yikes, no it's not always good. Only when it's needed and is a change for the better.

Please tell me that when it's all done things will be smaller and closer together so we don't have to scroll down a few miles to read and/or see things.

And the light turquoise lettering on darker turquoise is practically unreadable - even worse when you scroll over it and it turns the same color as the background!  Also unreadable is the light turquoise on - is that blue or gray? - in the mail.  Hopefully this is not the way it will end up.  How many more minutes to wait till it's fixed please?

The only good thing I see so far is the ability I don't think existed before to select mutilple things in your wishlist to then do stuff like delete, make private or public, etc...

That would be something wrong with your PC.

this could be corrected if one of the columns in the table was set to autosize and table itself was not set to a fixed width.  it seperates the men from the boys in web site design...just like setting a static image for a background instead of having it scroll with the page...little details such as these two exaples are very telling about who is working on a web site.

I am still puzzled why the code for the forums is inserting the image in the first place?  

Whoa.. I did not expect this...

I bright white bar at the top of an otherwise toned down look. That's plain nasty and hard on the eyes. The colors for the links are quite bad in combination with the general background color. This needs to be changed.

And there appears to be a bug: An image is inserted at the start of every post, specifically with this code: <img width="150" height="10" src="../../art/null.gif">

On firefox this creates a pretty large space between the post header and the actual post text.

 edit: the image thing was already mentioned... didn't notice the second page :)

Actually the spacing happens in both Firefox 19 and Chrome 24.

It does not happen in IE 9.

And this folks, is why we do cross browser testing in web development.

where is the "filter by" drop-down menu? or were you just joking?

3D view of the DOM for forums clearly showing the rendering issue with the image:

I'm getting all kinds of ghastly after-images blobs, just from glancing at it.  I have to keep my monitor turned (unfortunately) bright in order to make sure my images have decent color.  That makes white backgrounds VERY uncomfortable to look at. Not happy... but will be patient.  But also... dot...dot...dot... not shopping either.

So now, in line 9 of main.css you have the following rule.

.forum_message_cell img {height: 10px;}

Which, being a global declare for the image tag within a element of that class, makes every inserted image in a post 10px high.  

Really, fix the scoping or remove the image.  You just broke everyone's signature images.

LOL! :laugh:

We hates it, precious.... We hates it...

"null" Image no longer appearing in the DOM.

Above mentioned CSS removed, can see images as they were previously.

Fix looks good in IE 9, Chrome 24 and Firefox 19.

I personally thank the programmers for changing the fold down menus. must easier to access without having it disappear before one can select the particular item they need

The drop-down menus are fine - no issues there. I just hope they do something with:

1. That glaring, white band at the top of the pages... Visually 'shocking' and distracting IMHO..

2. Change the active/visited link text color to something us old geezers can actually see with out a magnifying glass...

I'd love to see the BG color toned down a bit, but I'll live with it, I guess....

I just have a lot of white boxes and then the rendo' blue in the middle (there's stuff in the boxes but it just looks like the background colour didn't load)

I thought it was a script error at first as well

Hey Tigger

It took me awhile to find it.

Goto the "Marketplace" tab

scroll down to "Sale Items"

You'll see a bar marked "Dept".

On the middle of that bar you'll see "Filter By", click on that

On the middle of the dropdown menu, you'll see "Clearance"

Well, then, that would explain why the bar graphics on the right is covering up a portion of the text in the middle for me.  Same thing seems to be happening at Daz as well.  Yes, I'm on Internet Explorer 9.  I'm starting to wonder if they're preparing for Windows 8 / Internet Explorer 10.

I just loaded up Rendo on my tablet.  It actually looks pretty good. Still don't like the color scheme.  The other one was much prettier and easier on the eyes. At least the menus work on the tablet now and its sized perfectly.

 Oh, and Rendo? When i try to position my cursor in the reply box, the website has a nasty habit of jumping to the top of the page. Also when i closed the keyboard, it did it, too.  Samsung Galaxy Note 10.2 tablet. This NEEDS to be fixed! I have to scroll all the way back down to the bottom of the page to post my reply.

Loads faster, works smoothly, and seems more mobile device-friendly.  I understand more tweaks are being done and the final form of the website is yet to appear.  

I am not certain that I like the site looking much like the Daz3D one, which, at this time, it resembles.  Only because a distinct identity is more valuable. Not a big issue if I use the marketplace and forums. Just saying.

They also need to learn about color contrast.  Dark-on-dark or light-on-light makes for poor readability (plus serious eye strain).

I am quite sure that their web people are youngsters.
