Oh, it's so bright! New layout!

[TheBiatches]

Love it, reminds me of the old days!

It does remind me of a very old layout, something from 2002/2003 possibly.

I don't mind it, to be honest, I just hate having to get used to it.

[VodkaMouth]

DenDen...? Is it... is it you?

I preferred the old layout, but then again this looks so much like the old DenDen it's almost freaky! Can't wait to have a fight because someone called us Spaniards retarded

Anyway, I guess I'll get used to it soon and it'll be fine. Also joined the Last.fm group!

[RainbowNerdette]

I don't know if it's the hayfever, the 3 hours of sleep due to terrible thunderstorms or this new layout but the MOMENT that I started reading DenDen I got a headache and sore eyes, literally

[_rEaSoN_]

the colours really hurt my eyes. Plus it looks that the text we write here isn't fully black?! It's somehow transparent and it kinda gets mixed with the background color.

[RainbowNerdette]

Now you mention it, it does blend in, maybe that causes the headaches... cause it strains my eyes witht he brain thinking/acting like my glasses are a bit off... Don't have it on other websites...

[IER]

Victoria approves this.



(the only thing I don't like atm is the full width, it was easier to read before)

[Paul!]

I HATE the wideness of the forum now. Probably only takes some time to get used to, but it was SO much better in a smaller frame.
Colours - love. Font - love.

[Madrigal]

MY EYES!

[WhiteLily]

It's like the old days! It's going to take some getting used to but I've been around long enough to see a bunch of changes and it doesn't take long to get into the new format. Thanks for all your hard work, Dennis, and for taking into account the wants of the members!

Daddy, can we have an icon or dot next to the subforum with new posts? The main icon changes to indicate a new post but in Lifestyle you can't tell which forum has the new post...and youknow the pervert in me likes to check new posts in L&S lol!

Other than that, I'm good

This! I can't tell if there are new posts in subforums like Movies & TV, Books or Disney Animation, so I HAVE to click there to know if anyone posted something. The other way (when the subforum name was in Bold when there were new posts) was better.

– it was easier to read – now the whole background is almost the same so it's harder to see where one post ends and the other starts

...and This!

It would help a lot if posts were in different colors, like it was before.

Plus I think the other layout was "sleekier", or "poshier", this one feels like a bit amateur-ish. I'm not feeling the font
But I guess we need time to get used to it.

[FiaSpice]

So bright, that definetly woke me up now. Still not a fan of the layout, but it could be worst (I've seen all black forum, yikes). The search box displays funny caracters, I don't have the time to screencapture, right now, will do later.

[Queenie]

The letters are not so clear I think , it's as if my eyes see blurry. (the font letters for replying I mean) I love the layout colors btw.

[Fenrik]

I like this!

I`m intruged by that last.fm thingy. But I still dont understand how it works! ;D lol!
Guess I`m a bit old as well.

Can I connect it to my personal iTunes? If I do so, will it take play counts from there over to last.fm? Or will it start from scratch with the play counts when I sign up?

[SugarLump]

I really like it. They always say change is for the better. It's just gonna take a bit of getting used to....

[Aurelien]

It's too bright :/
but i'm sure after few days i will not take care

[Fenrik]

And by "intrugued" I mean intrigued

[schizophonic_spice]

Its quite nice but yeah just takes a bit of getting used to.

[Lah]

I really like the change, i get bored of layouts very easily, and i was bored of the old one. Well done

You sign up on Last.FM and register a username & password and get a profile page. You download a software. This software installs plugins to your music players (for windows: iTunes, Windows Media Player and Winamp). A few players, such as foobar & VLC already have it installed from scratch (also works on smartphones, and even on iPods once you re-connect them to your computer(. Whenever you play a song with the correct ID3-tags, it submits this information to last.fm and counts it, no matter which player you use (so it counts your iTunes listens and your phone-listens for example).

In the intial setup, you can indeed have your previous iTunes-stats sent to last.fm and after a few hours to days (depending on the amount of plays and the busyness of their servers), these show up on your profile.

Now it combines this data to personal charts (which you can sort by timeframe and whether artist- or title-charts). It also connects the things you listen to. Let's say for Pop, you listen to Spice Girls and Steps. Someone else listens to Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys. Another person listens to Steps and Backstreet Boys. From this data (submitted by millions of people), it gathers a musical "neighborhood" for each artist and suggest you to listen to Backstreet Boys as well, as you might like it. It had some suggestions for me that left me open-mouthed, wondering how I could miss the perfect type of band for me. At another time, it suggested the Backstreet Boys and I wanted to spit at the website in disgust

So yeah, it's great for statistics-freaks, but it's also great for "safe" discoveries of artists.

Sorry but I liked the old version much more!

– it was easier to read – now the whole background is almost the same so it's harder to see where one post ends and the other starts

and the top is just... well... not pretty
(but that's the least important part since I don't really see it when I read the forum)

I like the new font a lot though!!

Exactly.... my reaction when I saw this mess was



Maybe in time the good old green one can come back....
I just don't understand the need to fix what's not broken.

[Becca]

I love it so much! It's like when you rearrange a room after it being the same for so many years. It's so refreshing!

I feel like the room has been rearranged for me when I was sleeping and I woke up here




not saying I don't belong there tho

[vic vic]

I think it feels too generic

[xinkoa]

glad to know that I'm not the only one finding it quite uncomfortable. It really hurts my eyes.

Thanks for that! I will definitely check this out!
Just registrered, but I will download that software to my computer at home later on

Btw, if I want to listen to that Denden Radio thing...does it cost anything?
