Here we go again...

[eruthros]

Dear LJ,

In your perpetual quest to "fix" things no-one has complained about, would you maybe consider hiring, I dunno, actual graphic design people? Layout people? Something? Because the new soon-to-be-default lj userinfo is beyond hideous. Awful, cluttered, poorly designed for usability, clearly missing the whole point of userinfo, and did I mention hideous? And awful?

no love,
eruthros

P.S. to flist: you can see what it would look like here, at my userinfo seen the new way, or by adding "?ver=ng" to the end of the url for your profile.

On the plus side, I'm charmed to see you quote Forum in there...

*g* I guess that's one thing that is more visible in the new layout, then, because that's been the subtitle of my journal for going on three years now. (I am far too lazy to ever change it.)

It's horrible! Most of the people commenting on the post seem to agree, so there's that, at least...

[eruthros]

Yes, though sadly that never seems to stop them. LJ admin is like Joss Whedon: they're going to give us what we really need, even if it's not what we want. Le sigh.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww...

It's making me want to unfriend half my friendslist and narrow my interests down to 10.

[eruthros]

Because it is just so cluttered! And yet. They're all "isn't it GREAT?"

Yeck! They're trying to be friendster or something.
