OP posts:
flanjabelle · 21/08/2014 09:23

Me!

I don't like the threads I'm on page.
I don't like that the ops posts won't highlight even when you check the box.
I don't like the advert at the top.
I don't like the whiteness.
I don't anything but the smileys being easier really.

LadyIsabellaWrotham · 21/08/2014 09:33

I quite like it but they have to fix TIO.

Angry [not actually that angry but want to try out new insert smiley feature - actually I think it's easier to type them manually]

sinpan · 21/08/2014 09:38

The ad is annoying but overall the new design works better

Beeyump · 21/08/2014 09:39

Me. I thoroughly dislike the new mobile site design. What was wrong with the old one??

Cocolepew · 21/08/2014 09:43

Yes I hate this one.
Not having the previous next buttons at the top is ridiculous.
I keep hitting the search button.
TIO is crap.
Thete was never anything wrong with it.
I've gone to the desktop site.

There are some good features now eg. I like the blue bar at the bottom, the emoticons are easier to insert, I like the drop down menus. But please can we have all OP posts highlighted not just the first one and it seems the option to choose a colour for own and OP posts has gone.
Dont like the white and it all seems so big. So a few little tweaks and I am sure it will be fine
Oh and it is a lot slower.

MsBug · 21/08/2014 09:50

I think if they can fix the really annoying things like the problems with threads I'm on, then the new version could be better than the old one.

As it is now, I'd rather go back

PitchSlapped · 21/08/2014 09:52

Nope I like it

LEMmingaround · 21/08/2014 09:56

Change it back. I quite like the bottom box but it hurts my eyes. The fact that i can't follow the ops posts is the worst bit. Sometimes i don't want to read 350 identical replies just to find the op.

I wonder if mnhq have decided to deal with people's addiction by making reading it on your phone give you a headache. It worked for me!

Patrickstarisabadbellend · 21/08/2014 09:56

Me!

enriquetheringbearinglizard · 21/08/2014 12:06

It's much less fussy than the last design.Less is more

I agree on that and it's great not to have the report button getting in my way any more, but I do wish all the OP's posts were highlighted, not just the opener and although I like clean lines I find the screen glare is a bit much even with the brightness turned down and much less poster content viewable at any one time.

Sometimes these revamps seem much more about style and less about user friendliness. The totally redesigned the Digital Spy website and it's just awful. I hardly look at it any more.

PooFlower · 21/08/2014 12:08

Me please

ifitsnotanarse · 21/08/2014 12:13

Don't like it. Hard to read (too bright) and difficult to navigate. Please change it back. Please?

MsBug · 22/08/2014 07:46

OK I have cracked and I'm using the desktop site on my tablet, the text is just about big enough to read.

ChangeYouFucker · 22/08/2014 07:50

Me, do not like it. As others have said too hard to read and the 'active page' is not as easy to skim as the old one.

MrsHathaway · 22/08/2014 07:51

Don't go back. The fixes have helped loads. It only needs tweaking.

ChangeYouFucker · 22/08/2014 07:51

Also too many adverts! MN has sold out.

MardyBra · 22/08/2014 07:52

Me.

The new site doesn't look good on iPhone 4. Only half a page of text and most of that is white space.

Shallan · 22/08/2014 07:57

Go back. I can't use it at all on mobile now, it's too difficult to read.

StandsOnGoldenSands · 22/08/2014 07:59

Yes please, an option to use the old one instead at the very least.

weyayechickenpie · 22/08/2014 08:09

Yes please. I wish there was an option to go back for those who want it.

DolphinsNose · 26/08/2014 21:10

I have just experienced the new look mobile site this second and searched for this very thread to give my tuppence worth.

I haven't spent much time on it and whilst it was a total shock at first I think with a bit of work it would be better than the old mobile site. I think the worst bit about it is that it looks far too clinical with all the white. Put a bit of colour back in is what I say.

TheHuffAndPuffALot · 26/08/2014 21:16

I'm a bit on the fence about this: works ok, but could be better, on my tablet; totally unusable on my mobile (which is where I really need it).

MoreCrackThanHarlem · 26/08/2014 21:19

No, I like it after a week of getting used to it.
