Here is my rant, hope you enjoy it.
The new site design awful. The ads are distracting, the toolbar is too far down, the faves and comics you own list takes ages to load, the rest of the site is stretched. The whole 'no backgrounds' is awful, the toolbars…ugh.
I've hardly check half the site, so I probably have more disgust yet to see.

Hooray! I can't wait!

Also, I have to buy another magazine and pair of cuffs. A little pissed at that.
You have to buy your gear? heh, you'd think it'd just be part of the job… How unfair and stupid. :(

I Second your Second

Rant time eh? Well don't know where to start except…

My surgery wound won't heal and keeps opening, I've gotten several arrest threats all because of a poem, My teachers give me dirty looks for no reason, I just found out I have an exercise histamine, I hate mondays, I hate tuesdays, I hate wednesdays, I like thursdays for some reason, I hate fridays, my new laptop is slow, I hate the new DrunkDuck design…I believe I implied that though, Winter should be Summer, and Summer should be Winter, Night school should replace regular school…

Hmm…I believe that was my first online rant…

Ugh. The new site design is atrocious. Not just from a visual standpoint, but the damn thing glitches out far more often on me. Before, when I tried to add a comic to my favorites, it just told me it was already there (it wasn't) and then automatically logged me out (I wound up having to use a different browser entirely just for favorites.) NOW I can't even LOOK at my favorites without getting kicked out. Oh, and all my favorites are gone now. Instead there's three comics there I've never even HEARD of, let alone favorited. Oh, and my comic has also half-dropped off the face of the site. Not only can't find it in my "My Comics" section, but searching for it in the browse section of the site turns up nothing (though I can still find it if I go to my profile.) I've half a mind to just dump this site and go somewhere else, it's just been more trouble than it's worth.

EDIT: Okay, the site seems to work just fine with the other browser, but still, having to use an entirely different browser just to go to DrunkDuck is annoying as hell.

Volte, my feelings on the new design.

1. Okay, probably mentioned to death, but the white is just terrible. It's painful. Psychologically, the blue was a relaxing tone, friendly, and fresh. The white is clinical, sterile, and purely hostile.

2. I like the cover pages being shown, even if they are a little big. I like seeing the descriptions listed too. Still, it does feel rather shoved in my face.

3. The news section needs to be brought back. The community and its leader's announcements shouldn't be hidden on a side bar.

4. MyComics: I do not like having to wait for tiny word links to load. It should just be 'there' once I hit the main page, access in, etc.

5. I understand the importance of ads, but this is bordering on choking. The side ad really does not sit well with me. It's almost like its trying to trick me into accidentally clicking it instead of 'MyComicNews'. That's giving this redesign an unsavory corporate look.

6. Over all lag. Well, you're probably working on this still, so I'm not going say much.

7. 'My…' bars. I don't like these at all. It seems so utterly unnecessary, I suppose and if anything, it's a hindrance. I don't see a reason to have the site load more things, make me wait, and hide things from me.

8. A side note… people would probably be a little more tolerant of these changes if things like the huge pile of glitches and bugs were addressed, either as actively in process of fixing or otherwise. Right now, I'm imagining this change feels more like giving someone with a beat up car that runs, an air freshener of a scent they don't like, when all they wanted was to fix the car's engine knock and wheel alignment.

As a whole, I can't say I much like these changes thus far. It lacks aesthetics for a comic site and functions have become downgraded. It feels 'corporate' and detached now.

Sorry. I'm sure you're working hard on this, but…

I don't know why you guys are posting in here about the site design. I understand it's your chance to "rant", but I can almost guarantee volte does not come in here.

crocty, we get it. You don't like the new layout. Maybe you should just stop complaining at every post and word things a little more diplomatically.

You're getting on my nerves, so I suggest you stop being a dick about things. The site is a work in progress.

Yeah, I get that it's a work in progress, but couldn't he have at least kept the old one before he put up the new one?

Yep, but that wasn't my call. Hell, I don't even know if that was volte's call.

It's not like the site is un-functional. You can still load comic and everything just like you used to. Just hang in there and everything will get better. Just like last time, when people complained about the old layout that you love so much. ;)

i think we should switch back to the classic layout…

Stop staring at me. yes, I know i'm insane! No, I don't care what you think 'bout it.

I don't want someone to hate me, I just want her to understand that she isn't actually in love with me. She isn't annoying or baying about it, she's just so sure that she loves me.

Thing is, I know she doesn't and just thinks that she does. Nothing I say convinces her otherwise, and she's determined to prove to me that she does. Normally I'd be freaked, but having known her as long as I do, I know she isn't going to do something incredibly scary or anything like that. She just means that she'll keep acting the way that she does and I'll eventually come around to realize that she does.

Just wish I could think of some way to make her understand that she doesn't.

Try and drink less ok? ;)

What do you do when you don't care as much about some aspects of your life any longer? When a lot of stuff just stops mattering…? Seems to happen more and more to me. There's only a few things I really care about anymore, most things are like "oh hey…" following the motions you know? "here we go again" and again, and again…

Not everything obviously though! :)
…but most things.

actually…that was the first time i'd ever drank that much….i normally have one or two and quit. but everyone else was buying.

i need someone else to make this decision for me. i dont want the responsibility of knowing that i doomed my own path. i want to blame someone. i think i'll flip a coin, and then i'll be able to blame the national mint for making it. just, hurry up and do something.
