I am already finding it hard to get around and the white background makes it hard to read stuff.

Like Sandyam said it just might take time to adjust to it although another forum I use changed recently and I adjusted to that right away… 

It’s feels really cold at the moment, like the warmth has been sucked out of TDR!

You see that is just annoying Thomas because it’s almost like you don’t like others expressing an opinion on the new layout of TDR!

Few missing things, maybe they will be fixed but no “edit your reply” 

In people’s profiles you can’t view where they are from or there name or number of posts!

I think you did the right move going with a system like Drupal, instead of "cooking" your own. To me, a proper search was the most important feature missing in the old TDR. So, thanks for the new  search engine :)

A regards the layout... I think everyone will miss the orange, it was with us for so long, and it was like a kind of "trademark" of TDR. Something REALLY different to any other community site. But it's good to change, and I'm sure is a matter of time to get used to it.

I do agree with people that says that the new layout is not as easy to read, though. I don't know exactly why... but I also feel the same. And readability counts! Maybe the new layout/CSS needs some love in that department. But it's not a big deal, either.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[Congrats guys!

(btw, Tev, you owe me one ;))

This is just natural, many people don't like changes, and this change is quite drastic, specially taking into account the old design has been around for many years.. people got used to it..It was the same when we switched from the green-gray layout to the orange layout, most got used to it, as most will get used to this new design as well. 

Drupal will make our lives easier too as admins/mods, and specially Visa's.

To those who left constructive feedback: thanks :)

Thanks for all your work Visa!!!

It appears that the improvements (if any) are mainly intended for the TDR staff, which no doubt make it easier to administer the site.

I see very little improvement or new features for the readers.

Old TDR was a warm, inviting Roxette corner of the Internet.

New TDR is a barrenness white expense, which has lost it's soul.

Visa, I'm a fan of your work, always have been, but I don't like this - sorry.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[My two cents worth...

I've always found some of the more user friendly forum based solutions more appropriate for fan sites, such as Fusion or SMS.

That said, Drupal is *extremely* powerful, and can do things which even some of the large vendors are not doing yet (hence my convincing my company to go open source and save a few hundred thousand pounds).

Perhaps you can look at some of the warmer themes for Drupal and see how you can use that here? It does seem very clinical and not terribly friendly. Even though I *know* what can be done with Drupal sites, my first impression here was one of sterility and coldness.

On long threads you end up scrolling forever just to jump to the next/last page.

Also i noticed that there is no "Smalltalk" anymore, just TDR discussions :-( I think that gave the forums a little bit of character.

Is this the final layout or with there still be some ongoing finetuning?

Oh and can you add a button to post now, instead of having to preview first?]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[Is it possible to add the "jump to page" shortcut to the top of the page? On long threads you end up scrolling forever just to jump to the next/last page.

It’s called constructive criticism; you would think one could take that and not go over the top with a response. Thomas has the cheek to call us children….  

…. Many of us learn that here at TDR the moderators are going to stick together they always do, would we really expect anything else! 

I spoke to several people this morning over the new layout of TDR via email and MSN many won’t even offer there opinion here because they expect replies from Thomas… 

There no point in Visa expecting people to offer there opinion when his moderators are so OTT in there response!

Great to see TDR is THE subject of the day today! :)

I didn't point at anybody in my previous post anyway. Talking in general, not the first time we've had this discussion. We have actually had at least monthly in the past year about other issues regarding TDR. Rules, OW video, why we publish this or that article, etc etc. And I refer to my comment above again.

Not only Visa expects to get some Feedback, we do as well, read my and Thomas' comments, we KNOW we have to apply some changes, it can't be any other way with such a new layout and system!

You might have missed I started making a list (see some previous post). I sent an email to Visa as well with a couple of issues, and I collected some more from a couple of people I also chatted with. 

Have a nice Sunday :)

So I'll be reading TDR latests news every week and I will use this forum to ask doubts about some of the (new or older) news.

It looks too much like the rest of the site.]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Comment on Welcome to the all-new Daily Roxette by kachina008</title><link>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262471</link><guid>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262471</guid><dc:creator>kachina008</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 19 Nov 2006 16:32:43 +0200</pubDate><description><![CDATA[me ? :D :D :D ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[me ? :D :D :D ]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Comment on Welcome to the all-new Daily Roxette by kachina008</title><link>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262473</link><guid>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262473</guid><dc:creator>kachina008</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 19 Nov 2006 16:33:49 +0200</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Hmm, I was answering Judith's comment about who they take seriously.

Thank you for your comments on the new layout. There definitely are things to improve and I don't mind being criticized as long as you have something constructive to say as well.

This time the change was very dramatic, but the old layout was there for 7 years and that's an eternity on the Internet!]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[Sorry for the "edit" links missing from the comments.

It looks like you guys have simply thrown information on the page without any design criteria. It's confusing and visually poluted. The fonts used don't make the texts easily readable... You should try Verdana instead, since it's a generic and nice font especially designed to be used on internet texts. The star used as "X" on the title doesn't work either. Sorry. And please don't ask me to do better... I'm a graphic/web designer but I don't have intentions to make another Roxette-site. There are plenty of them already. Please, don't get me wrong. I do like the concept of the website, the exchange of information. The only thing I don't like is the design. You should ask for a little help from Roxette fans who are really talented and willing to contribute to make well-designed Roxette websites, like Marcus from "Rox Service".

I understand the need for a new system, but it will be a bit pointless if it turns people away. I am all for change, but people aren't criticising change in the sense of, if the don't like a particular colour just because it isn't their 'thing',  they are criticising poor usability. I have been visiting this site since it was born and have continued to do so because, well, I enjoy visiting the site! I know there are limitations with any system, but if someone doesn't attack the css and give it some 'ooomph', then I am afraid I will have to rely on my friends to tell me the news instead.

I find 2 things very annoying: I can't see the differences between the forum and the news sections, the previous version diferentiated them very clearly. The other thing is that it's hard to find who wrote each entry in the forums. Before reading the entries, I read who wrote them. Now it's hard to see who added a comment. I liked the 2 columns version (like in SOAP forums).

There are some nice things though. The HTML tags and signature are fine.

I understand that you worked hard for this and you wanted to improve the site, but unfortunately I think you did just the opposite. Now it looks cheap, looks like it was made in Word. Everything is so white-and-blue, so serious, I'm not reading the New York Times, I'm reading TDR! It doesn't feel like Roxette. I used to identify TDR with Roxette, but now, it seems like any other newspaper site (it seems that is what you wanted).

I want more colours and less sharp corners!

btw, where's the older TDR Icon? What's that blue thing?]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[Sorry, I don't like it. As some other users say, it looks too cold, too structued. I'd change the fonts.

Everything is so white-and-blue, so serious, I'm not reading the New York Times, I'm reading TDR! It doesn't feel like Roxette. I used to identify TDR with Roxette, but now, it seems like any other newspaper site (it seems that is what you wanted).

I want more colours and less sharp corners!

btw, where's the older TDR Icon? What's that blue thing?]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Comment on Welcome to the all-new Daily Roxette by whateveriam</title><link>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262506</link><guid>http://www.dailyroxette.com/node/15949#comment-262506</guid><dc:creator>whateveriam</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 19 Nov 2006 18:41:00 +0200</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Can I ask the mods if they were taking bets on who specifically who didn't like the update?

The Frontpage layout is kinda ok, but I dont like the way the news are separated from each other, is not well defined.
The forum layout is too constrained, the framing on the sides is distracting and takes a lot of "reading" space out.
I'm using 1280x1024
The fonts are difficult to read if the amount of text is big.

If I click on a thread I have already read, it should take me to the last unread post by default, or at least put a page navigation above the first post on the page, otherwise why should I  have to scroll down to the last post just to change the page?

And it's not that im "too used" to the Dailyroxette, since I allways been user of different forums.

And now the more subjective part of my comments: it looks ugly and not unique like it used to look before.

I don't know much about web-design, so I won't say too much about layout and all of that.  What I don't like is the font used on the front page and in the discussions (I notice that the text in the reply box is different (looks like Arial, but I could be wrong)).  Someone else mentioned Verdana as well, I also think that is a good font to use.

Also, I think the picture of Per and Marie in the top right corner is too big.  It feels as if the picture takes up too much space.

It will take some time to get used to the new layout.

I've got 4 suggestions for Visa:

1) Delete the signatures. Signatures are very annoying.
2) Put lines around the replies/comments with a white background.
3) Make the grey background in the replies/comments lighter. At the moment the contrast with the white background is too big.
4) Put the navigation links with the different page numbers also on top of every first message. It's not pretty to scroll to the bottom of the page in order to be able to get to the next page.

You can use the "reply" button which appears at the bottom of each answer. Your reply/comment will be automatically added at the bottom / after the last comment.

for several reasons:
- I have not seen the possibility to edit your previous comments, as was possible before.
- The font that is used, gives me an headache if I look at it too long
- It is not that easy to read as the previous version.

Sorry for all the work that has been put in here, but this is a failure.
Back to the drawing table.

If it stays like this, I am not so sure I will visit TDR that often as I did, which is a shame, because it is (was?) the best source for Roxette-news.

Maybe i will come back to this comment later, although I don't know how, since I haven't seen the edit-button. So I would have to make a new reply.....

I give this a 2 (on a scale of 10); the old TDR a 8.5 (out of 10).]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[awww, this new layout is a change which is not a good one....

Please tell me this is just a test version to work out technical issues and that there is going to be some actual thought going into the re-design and usability of this site?

I am sorry but since when does Roxette use a star instead of the X? My favourite band in the world is NOT called Roette. Sorry it just does not work IMHO.

The only thing I like about this site is the picture of Roxette, but even that is to big and creates a third column which should'nt be there at all.

I have nothing further

1.the front page is give no information and don’t draw attention .... it’s like a page number 2333 of local newspaper...

2.maybe becouse of the pix of Per and Marie but the text from the news and topics takes up only 1/3 from page space ..and leaves wide white fields on both sides..

3.still can’t edit..

4.don’t see the last page from the topics and go page after page till the lsat one

5.the white background is clinical. cold and gives impression incompleteness!!!!

6.too much advertising

7. why i must first Preview my post and just after that i can post.?

Sorry. The big font used in the main page also looks pretty amateurish.

I never complained about the old design. It was OK for me. This design is way too cold, too much white. In addition, the Google ads are very evident and annoying at the same time.

Something that would be a improvement is if we could visualize the previous posts while are are writing a reply. That was not possible before, and it is not possible now either. That's usefull if you wanna reply to many people, but you can't memorize all that was said before.

And the "edit" function is pretty necessary too. We all need it back!]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[Cool, the new design is as warm as a... frigde. Sorry. The big font used in the main page also looks pretty amateurish.

It would be nice to have the favicon a little star or similar again, but i'm sure that will come in time.

Although it probably won't make a difference, i've done a little mockup myself of a few tweaks. I think it looks a little nicer gives you a little more room instead of having 3 columns. Will upload it soon.

If nothing else, i'd like like the font changed in the nav menu. It just looks wrong.

All I can say is how talented Visa is, being able to make the previous TDR and smalltalk that lasted so long and was well liked. Compared to a ready-coded backend, which will take a little bit of work to get it to the standard (from a users point of view) of the previous version.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[It might not make a difference, but here's my slightly tweaked version.
