Hi, I have not decided if I love the new look--or hate it. I like certain elements, but think others are too trend-whorish. I do, however, understand the need to push limits and experiment with new ideas; I support this philosophy as well and the new site has some really nice new features. Aesthetics aside, the new CF Developers Exchange is a PITA to use--at least to use the way I would like. It seems to be the "little things" that I am noticing most often, but I noticed them immediately because I've had to completely change the way I browse the gallery. For example:
One cannot right-click links and open a new window from the tag list interface One cannot use the mouse's scroll button to scroll the "frames" (it will take me forever to break this habit) Dragging the frame scroll bar maxes out the CPU, lags up my PC, and has an "artificial" sort of feel The browser must reload the entire interface when you view a tag an then return to the tag list/search (I despise this "feature") The "syntax usage" pop-up seems unnecessary, and contains far too many "read the read me" messages It is much slower than before, which, is damn hard to believe I love Flash, but I do not like how it was used within the CFDE. -----Original Message----- From: Angel Stewart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 07, 2003 10:27 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: New Macromedia website- I love the interface! :) I LOVE IT!!
