Devil's Site New Layout

[Bill86]

I'm going to start patrolling the devils site for a reasonably priced 500-850 count humidor we'll see how it goes....either way I need to smoke more cigars. My 300 count isnt bad I should count up the sticks in it.

And I don't like it, either.

I like it. It was time for a facelift. Users always resist change but will adapt as long as your design doesn't get in the way. I wish they would allow our changes to the number of results to persist (be sticky between pages/browser sessions), but that's a nitpick (and developers usually return lists like that rather than an entire result set because it has less overhead on the server traffic to do so).

If you have problems with the page loading from an old bookmark, just remove the /auctions at the end.

I like it as well. I think the freefall auction is interesting. I just haven't seen anything on it that's caught my eye yet.

Ok, that's a major fail! BTW, I sent the customer service email a link to this thread. Thought it might be interesting to them.

I'm OK with the change, however it takes more pagedowns to get through the same number of items as before. I get an "out-of-sync" feeling when using the site. The changeover at cigarauctioneer.com was much smoother and graphically more appealing.

Good call. People typically seem hesitant towards change. They are more comfortable with something that are familiar with.

I think a re-design was in desperate need and I think they did a good job. Though it will take a little getting use to. The old design was so primitive.

Hadn't been on in it in months. I almost pulled the rip cord at first, but played around 5-10 minutes, I like it. I thought it was going to be like Cigar Auctioneer which I hate.

So, to prove I am a man of the peeps, I will give credit to the Pats fan for making good points. It doesn't feel good, but I do try.

The new layout is nice but it's down right now and was down last Friday night when I tried to go on also . And I wanted to bid ! Edit ; Just checked and It's back up again , currently . Seems like alot of work going on the site .

I keep seeing people say the site is down, but I wonder if they don't have scripting errors or something going on. For example, the site JUST opened fine for me in Chrome.
IE8 worked fine after a refresh. /shrug
