Good:
Pretty.
Cute.
Creative.
Exclamation icon next to the Trade, PMs, Friends icons for events. Since I had trouble with events before because of my firefox, now I will know when I get one. biggrin

Bad:
Too much white and my eyes can't stand.
Not organized AT ALL.
I miss the previous navigation bar at the top. It was easy and quick. Now I have to roll to the bottom of the page and THEN click. >.>

Heh, it looks like it was designed by a newbie designer looking for quick work, taking the footer look from the Wiki. neutral

The text area is much too wide, and the usage of white space is really bad, especially for those of us with dark desktops/browsers. There is no real even amount of colorage, but the navigation is easier.

Heh, if I did this type of layout in school, I'd lose so many points for those few things and maybe more. sad

teh ebil ducky

Interesting Noob

I forgot to mention the old banner thingy at the top. I liked it wayy better. You just put your mouse over then down then click. But now I have to scroll to bottom and I have to learn where everything is. I got so used to the old I knew that by clicking on community it goes straight to forums now I have read over most stuff then find forums at the bottom.

I don't care about the layout anymore.
They're starting to change it more often.
Soon, there will be a new one, probably.

Too much clicking. @__@

I'm getting used to it, but I want that menu bar to be back. So it's faster. D:

Otherwise, I think it's stupid for some people to actually leave Gaia because of the layout.

And I read from a petition that they think the bottom menu looks like an ad.
I kinda have to agree.. xD;;
They should at least spice it up with more colors..
Or put it at the top. T__T;
