Title: Newgrounds Redesign
Post by: techmaster-glitch on July 18, 2007, 12:23:45 AM
This thread is for anyone who frequents the flash website, newgrounds.com, acclaimed as one of the largest flash communities on the web. Those who do frequent the site have probably........noticed........the recent redesign.

Discuss. What are your thoughts?


My first though when seeing it,
WHAT THE F**K IS THIS S**T?!?!?!?!?
And I think I mean that in a good way...I still don't know...this will take some getting used to.

Honestly, I can't see much difference.

I mean aside from the definite, pleasing lack of hentai ads plastered over every free corner of the website.

Can you guess why I never frequent Newgrounds very much?

I like it.  I especially like how they're no longer forcing pop-ups to actually view the flashes.  Now they just superimpose it on top of the current page you're viewing, and they keep the option of making it a pop up.  I like that.

Yes so much simpler this way

Really? I hate that. Since it isn't in popup form anymore, you can't just minimize it and go do something else on the same page, like say, when it's loading. You'd actually have to pull up another tab or window to do that. It annoys me.

Yeah, in other words, you're spazzing over the slightest change.

You obviously are another someone who does not actually frequent Newgrounds if you think this is a slight change.
And I only spazzed initialy, because everything looked so different.

And I do belive I said this thread was made for fellow Newgrounders in the very first line of the first post? Or are there none here?

I frequent Newgrounds, almost every day.  I happen to like the change.  When I first caught sight of the change I was like, "Wow this is cool.  So much easier on the eyes, and wow they changed how they deliver flash videos.  Newgrounds has really become a Web 2.0 site."

Thank you, Ryudo. Someone who actually knows what they're talking about and has an opinion. I think the redesign looks nice, too. It was just so different from the original that it surprised me originally.

I dig the new layout so far and I love the NG Bytesize.

There you go. There's your example. Hiding insults in your posts.

Ummm, that wasn't an insult, and it wasn't directed at you either.

Things never have to be direct. You're still talking about me with what you said. Don't play dumb.

*sigh* You know what, you just aren't worth this.


Back to the discussion. I kind of like how they split the games and movies up on the front page.
