Re: New Ravelry look

 

Here's a suggestion to make it look similar to the old site - but not exactly. I found it made it better, but only on a desktop. Can't do it on a mobile device, I think

I¡¯ve had a migraine all day, so the new Ravelry was not helping. Too much white space, too jarring, and too childish/dumbed down. I¡¯m pretty sure that is not just my headache talking.?

I wondered that too, Melisande - I thought maybe it was me being a fogey (ok, boomer).? Great - one more thing to figure out how to modify to recapture it's former functionality!

I asked Ezra for his opinion in case my response was generational.

His instantaneous response (and please pardon his language but this is a quote): It looks like ass.

He expands that it looks like dated, poor forum design and that he has never seen anything (in a forum design) that hurts your eyes that much.

?

Some folks have posted information about plug-ins that can modify the appearance so I¡¯m going to have to figure that out for myself.

So I have to ask¡­ what do you think about the new look for Ravelry?

?

I have to say that I¡¯m really surprised by the choice to completely rebrand away from colors and logo, but more than that, I¡¯m shocked by how clunky the interface now looks.? It might function better, I¡¯m not sure, but it¡¯s causing me so much trouble with my eyes and headache that I¡¯m not entirely certain I¡¯ll ever find out.

?

I did post in the feedback thread, but at the moment I¡¯m not sure how well I¡¯ll be able to keep up in the groups I moderate in, much less with other groups that I was active in or things I was following or doing on Ravelry.

?

Pretty sad about this today.
