New DJTT Site Design: Discussion
New DJTT home page blows! .. At least the forums look the same!!!
I think it looks fine, although I will say that it is cluttered and it’s hard to find your way around it now. I think it’s fine, but it does need some TLC (Tender Loving Compression).
with chrome on osx 10.6.8 I have broken images and login requests for port 80 haha.
When that gets fixed (and the ads get relevant!!!) then I think I’ll have no qualms.
They’re asking for criticism the blog posts. Although it blows isn’t necessarily constructive criticism. I’m sure if you can give some specifics they would appreciate it.
hahaha I put some thoughtful feedback there, I figured “it blows” belongs here in the Off Topic (see: nonsense) forum 
Just wondered if anyone shared that view 
like the look and layout its nice but the fact that the main banner is tiny and theres a MASSIVE ad is kinda a bummer! i know ad’s = money and you guys have to pay for site server etc but hmmm ads 
i like it but do ads be targeted by google to be about what i look up?
i would love to come to djTT and see about singles in my area.
I think it looks 100% better. Professional, bright and more appealing. If you are having problems with your browser that’s your problem not DJTT’s.
Ok, woah, dude, I was just whining, not having any real complaint. But to this, I really feel I need to say that if my browser and OS don’t render a page properly (common browser on a common OS) then it IS DJTT’S PROBLEM.
They are the ones who need to fix it, not me. As for professional, how professional is it if it doesn’t look right on my screen? I am the target audience, am I not? I am the one they are hoping will click the ads, and to see the ads, they have to put good content for me to read. If the site is not readable for me, then I don’t read it, I don’t click the links, and no $$ comes in from my visiting, so I’m using bandwidth and they’re not capitalizing on it. Of course this is the case for most people anyway, but assuming they have a PPC system going on for their ads, then I’d click them just to help out, but until it’s fixed, I won’t be reading any articles, because they don’t show up right.
As for product reviews, if the images don’t load properly, then this is a bigger problem.
fwiw, I’m sure this is a temporary thing, as I’m sure I’mnot the only one that saw this problem, and it’s probably even fixed already, so it’s not a real issue, but you, sir, are mistaken in thinking that it’s my problem to deal with when a professional site fails on my machine.
/tirade
sorry, had to say it.
I really don’t like it,far too much going on i liked the old simple look.
DJTT = Land of Civility
Hey man not directed at you or anyone in particular. All I’m saying is that if I can view it perfectly on an iPhone screen and others can view it on a laptop screen perfectly then as far as I’m concerned that IS your problem and anyone else’s who is having trouble. Anyway not being a dick. Just saying. Everyone entitled to their opinion right.
Haha it’s all fixed now anyway - and the ads are all music related now.
So no more complaints Now how do I delete this thread? I changed my mind about the site now =D
I do prefer this front page over its former. The only thing I’d change, though, is the top menu (store/blog/forum) and logo. Placing it on the left side would feel a bit more natural since [most] people read from left to right. I would also like to see all three sections, the store, blog, and forum, have the same design for that feeling of continuity.
The nav buttons should at least match the ones for the forum. Even if they’re in an odd place, we can get used to that - but we need consistency, yeah?
There’s too many links, that’s my only major complaint. The navbar is hell to figure out.
Loving the new design, much easier on the eye. The only thing needing some puckering up is the navigational bar at the top.
The rest is all cool!
please tell me will this site be redesigned too
please tell me will this site be redesigned too
i hate the new look djtt
theres a post on the home page where it tells you you can email them feedback.
this isnt the right place, theres already a thread on it, and how would we know if the forum gets a redesign too?
I really don’t like the new homepage. I have it set so I always go to the main page, then navigate to the forums from there. Probably going to change my bookmark to go straight to the forums now.
Bad layout = I won’t be bothered with it.
