I'm neutral. The last time there was a layout change I REALLY hated it at first and that was my gut reaction this time too, but...I remembered that I got used to it just fine last time. And I'll get used to this one too! It's nice to try something new.

Took us a few minutes to get used to it but having the points showing at all times is a great addition in itself

Too much scrolling left and right, yeah.

The new EdenFantasys home page is much cleaner and easier to navigate, better integrating the Eden splinter sites. I really appreciate the update.

It's so good I'd like to see all of the Eden sites adopt its menu, meaning the menu from the top of Edenfantasys would carry over to Sexis, Edentube, etc. Uniform navigation makes the entire site more user-friendly.

Great job,

Boz

For the most part I really like it. I like how it is more "adult" friendly, less bold in our face colours (which I kind of liked to be honest I do sometimes like flashy things!!!) and more organized.

But there are three things I'd like to see changed;

1) I really do miss how you could see where you were at the top of the page, and now it is at the bottom of the page. ( Sex Toys-> Community Forum EdenFantasys - general Updates and feedback) I'd love to see this at the top of the page ESPECIALLY on the Forums section for easy clicking.

2) Getting to my profile page is a pain in my backside. I'd love to see in the top right hand corner of the screen an icon that could take you to your dashboard or your account.

3) My screen is pretty big, but I like to do a few things in different screens at the same time as I am on EF. I'd like to be able to have the screen autosize if I choose to shrink the browser.

But like many, I love seeing my points on the Homepage and int he top right hand side of the screen.

I also really enjoy how I can travel through the site without having to return to the homepage if I want to get to the Forums, or the Community page or search for someone's profile. I can do that from any page. I really really enjoy this!!!

I don't like it. I thought the old version was very easy to navigate. This feel less intuitive. I'm still finding difficult to locate things and I still can't access my profile from my laptop. Nothing happens when I click the link. Works on my phone, however. Also, the homepage looks sterile, for lack of a better word. To much white, not enough personality. I understand the need to update from time to time, but the new update didn't really seem to add a whole lot of functionality that wasn't already there. Now it's harder to find stuff.

I'm a Forum lover. I love to read through Forums, but I hate having to click through pages all the time.

Is it possible to make an option under the thread name on the main Forums page to have the first couple of pages and the last page clickable with a page number?

As well, to have the page numbers not just at the bottom, but at the top of the page under the thread name as well??? Yes, I am asking because I am a lazy scroller.

Once I get used to the new layout, I'm sure I'll love it
as of right now I'm a bit confused to where everything is, but I'll figure it out.

I agree with all of this. Especially number 1. I know it's at the bottom of the page, but I still look at the top first, every time.

I really like it. It took me a little while to get used to it and to make my way around but it's great. Love the fact i can see my points clearly

I am pleased to announce the breadcrumbs are going to be at the top and the bottom of the page, now!

This update will take effect sometime today. Here's the official announcement.

I hate that I have to wait for the drop down thing just to go to my dashboard and profile. Much prefer it the way it was.

At times I find this way more confusing finding things. But shit happens!

My Eden doesn't work sometimes. The links aren't there.

And grabbing an item sometimes screws up because the popup where you can pick which variety you want hides behind the navigation bar.

And maybe we could have an option for different "skins"? One pink and green like we have it now, but then another one blue and green or something? Something other than pink? I hate pink and everything here is pink. Green's cool with me, though.

I notice this too. Sometimes the log in freezes and won't let me long in for hours and my cache clears every time I exit out of the internet. (I am using Firefox.) Sometimes I click something and it takes me to the front page. I still notice the Italics aren't working either. Even in my old reviews were italics are they are plain text.

I thought originally that it was just me (the proxy thingie to get on EF and all and the China thing) where sometimes EF just doesn't load properly. I see all the links, but nothing more.

All I do is just change browsers for a while and I am ok. I have also found that if I change the IP address to another country it works with no problems.

I agree. The dropdown hangs sometimes, as if the whole page is reloading, then the login window seems to do the same.

I am all for change and a newer look but I would definitely agree with others that some more color would be nice.

For some reason, the new format is wider than my screen. I'm constantly having to scroll left and right. I find this annoying. If anyone knows how I can change this without having to change it for every website (this is the only one that has the problem), please PM me! Thanks.

I think it looks realy good, but I like the old one better. I have to scroll left to right to be able to see everything on each page, unless I want to view the page at 75% which then hurts my eyes. The scrolling gets really annoying.

I haven't been on in a while, and it was a surprise to see the new layout. I love it. It took me a second to see where the link is for the forums, but that was easy to find. And I also found where the main review page is to see the recent reviews. Pretty cool! Thanks for that. I like seeing my point balance in the top corner too, way better than waiting till i do something that earns me a point to see how many there is! Thanks for that!

I have to say that I don't like it. The old interface was really intuitive... everything was obviously labelled, and was where I expected it to be.

It takes me much longer to navigate around. I know it sounds really dumb but I couldn't even find the "Log In" link -- and I consider myself generally a savvy software user. I actually resorted to searching for the term "log in" and in the end found it indirectly I think through an orders status page that provided a link to log in. Right now I can't find how to log out. I'm guessing that The "My Eden" thing in the far right with the arrow is there I go for "My Account" options, but it doesn't drop down a list for me or anything. All that happens is the logo changes from the Eden logo to my avatar.
