Eh it's all pretty ugly and cold, but that's okay, I'll still keep drinking that garbage.

This is the latest review which is on the sidebar for desktop, and on mobile shows. This is using the list view, but shows the same in grid view
That helped a little…hadn't seen "latest reviews" tab before. Still wish "latest reviews" would be featured as prominently as the old site.
Something like the attached image is what I'm proposing for the home page. I have added red number 1-5 which are meant to denote features as follows.The homepage redesign is in process, but I'm totally open to it if you'd like to mock something up and send it my way. I can't promise feasible, but my goal is to find maximum usability.
How dare you sir!!!I was digging the push notifications until I realized it's extremely distracting when you're trying to masturbate.
We don't listen to you Canadian types around here my friend! We're better than that! USA! USA! USA!How dare you sir!!!
I am a diamond member and I DEMAND that this "silly" bizz be escorted at once from the premises
Give it a few weeks and return. XenForo is a forum software that is inherently unfriendly to navigation, but greens has claimed this project is personal for him. If it is he will keep listening to and working on the user base's UI suggestions. It can be modded out.Nice design suggestion DFrah!
I am done using this site tho, the UI is just freaking terrible. I can't believe this is supposed to be an upgrade.
I absolutely LOVE the pencil basket logo. Some variant on that would be amazing to have continue with the site. I don't care if it is dramatically different, but the pencil basket idea is fantastic and unique as a base to work from.I like it DFrah, nice layout. As a fellow mostly desktop user I find this a vast improvement.
Couple points from my end: I don't mind the new logo, I always found the old one to be a bit cartoony. Also I have been on the forums and posted a couple reviews today and found these to actually be an improvement for the most part. So once the main page gets sorted out myself (and I'm sure others) will perhaps get used to and maybe just enjoy the modernization.
I love your layout and suggestions in general. I think that's a vast improvement for the homepage. I, too, am a fan of the old logo, but can accept some level of modernization. Change is always hard, and some updates to the site like that are things people will grow to be used to.Something like the attached image is what I'm proposing for the home page. I have added red number 1-5 which are meant to denote features as follows.
1. I have to agree with others that I don't like the new logo. Is there a reason we can't use the old logo? I think it would be fun to keep the retro logo.
2. I removed some of the buttons at the top. To me the key features of the site are Courses and Forums. Members is good to have prominently there too. All the other stuff matters less so I'm proposing we add a "More" button with a drop down list to get to Discs, Calendar, and so on. When you click "Courses", then it can go to something like the current home page with the full page table of courses.
3. This is a large format tile with a photo along with info about a single randomly selected course. It changes every day. Sort of like the old site had, but with more info about that course right on the home page.
4. Top Rated courses and Most Played courses, starting with #1 at the top and showing the top 10 on the home page.
5. Latest Reviews and Latest Forum Posts. As they are now, except that the height of each forum post entry should be the same height as each review entry (as opposed to forum post entries currently being smaller). These could just go all the way down to the bottom of the page (so however much room it takes to show the ten course tiles).
@greens let me know what you think! Also everyone else let me know if you like this, what you would tweak, etc.! Constructive discussion is going to be the best way to dial this in in a way that more people are happy with.
2nd! lolI suggest "DiscDunce" of the week on the homepage. Can I get a second for @sillybizz?
