Is this the new look Esato.com?? I thought there wasn;t going to be any change in the website anytime soon....after many people said they liked the way it was in one of those threads last week.

It looks OK

Posted by Chrispy
I think it's really pweettyy! keeps the old, clean interface, but it looks way more professional, and it's set out pretty nicely.. Wonder what Laffen has to say on the matter...

Hi all,

It looks like much easier to read on a PC will have to check it out on a mobile device but so far me really like.

looks good,might need a few tweaks though..

Posted by dr_thug
i prefer the good old logo...

Posted by solja786
change is always good...certainly does look different but soon everyone will b use to it

Posted by HamsterVil
i really like it, maybe some margins to center it a bit but overall i think is a good layout

Posted by govigov
what happened? i liked it the other way. this is stupid... and whats with the big "online" thing? and the new font? did somebody hack this site or something?


and why does all the time stamp say 01:33

The transformation of the entire site will take a couple of days so it is not completely finnish yet. The idea was to move the site navigation to the top of the page. Good old Esato was built for the common 15" displays with a 800 x 600 pixel resolution. Today, 87% of the visitors are viewing the site with a 1024x768 resolution or better. The new design is more flexible because the width is ajustable. We have also optimized the HTML code and are making much more use of CSS.

I figure Esato finally listened to those complaining about its looks... what about the ones that liked it? like me. Do u like it?

i personally feel violated , i guess it is just a matter of time getting use to the new layout

jizzz i can't find anything hehehe



Posted by aringpingpon
maybe if the forums boxes didn't go all the way across the screen >.<
a little harder to read quickly

Posted by dr_thug
Another thing i find hard is than now eyeballs have to travel across the breadth of the monitor to read a post.Previously it had to concentrate on only a small area of the screen.

Posted by govigov
the time stamp is fixed, and yes it is width adjustable. the bar is still the same.

look at my from: half of it is missing !

Posted by aringpingpon
how would you go about adjusting the width?

Posted by c_vignesh
The table width doesnt seem to wrap the contents properly in some areas..and the table background doesnt seem continuous enough to merge with the background

Posted by djtwistter
holely crap wht r u doign to esato

Posted by mayacesar
I love the new Esato. I had nothing against the old version, but this is by far much better. It is more clear, user friendly, has a more professional layout, wider view, etc.

That's what I call a good upgrade.


Posted by aremaboy
Excellent. It's so silver. Cool to the eyes. Still traditionally working Esato..

Posted by altemyr
The new layout feels somewhat more "lightweight" than before, faster and smoother, but one error remains from before: When you enter an answer to a topic, like I do right now, the response screen contains a link to my newly entered entry. That link points to the very first entry in the topic, not my newly entered one, which is the last. This is especially annoying in very large threads, like "K800i firmware overview" (or this thread) which spans over many pages.

wow guys! this is better now, and it will get better. it's just a matter of days when all will be set up. rite now im from my mobile. cant wait to see it from a computer.

Posted by dr_thug
While making the changes,i wish esato removed some topics from the homepage like which are aimed at WAP users...i think wap use is coming down and more people use html for surfing from their phones.Topics i would like to be removed or replaced are:

"Esato on wap"

"Polyphonic Ringtones"... people either use the preset polyphonic ringtones in their phone,from their friends via bt or set some mp3 song as their ringtone.I feel very few people use this section.Hope am i right??Same can be said about "Free Mobile phone wallpapers" and "Screensavers"

"Cebit Special"...its almost a year old.And no updates from 3gsm 07.

just my 2p

Btw,new Esato looks nice when surfing from the phone



Posted by BobaFett
interesting... imo i have to get used to it... i have to admit, i miss the old one...

anyway, i am just one of the crowd, @laffen ha det lykke med nyt esato

Posted by lastikcizme
How exactly do you set up the width?

Posted by LesleyAnn
adjusting the browser window width works on my mac... everything wraps fine! issue in safari: the buttons top left overlap which makes it a little difficult to work with...

kinda think the new logo is a little disappointing... the font isn't the best rendered. thought that the old logo had a querky originality to it while this one is less edgy.

but hey! keep working on it... we'll all get used to these changes!

Posted by Nanu
I have just started a new topic herefor people to post any glitches on the new forum!

just to help Laffen.

so please only post glitches and not gripes!

cheers!


Posted by Ranjith
i like the new look....but u know...was used to the old one...

R

Posted by dr_thug
@nanu,laffen said that couple of days are needed before the full effects of esato come up...so wouldn't it be better to wait till then and then hunt for glitches??

Posted by PeterKay
will take some getting use to, like the new logo.


Posted by tranced
i cant see the logo from my k750. im using webviewer.

Posted by antichrist
it looks very nice on pc, but on phone, it's very annoing

Posted by Tiny
yeah it looks good, but i still prefer the old esato

Posted by Nanu
@ dr thug,

I did state that i appreciate the site isn't finished, but if things are posted that Laffen isn't aware of, surely that would be of help during the transformation!

Posted by BlacK Devil
well it does have a charm of it's own now (as it did before) but i kinda get tiered reading a long post ... it goes from edge to edge of the screen almost

btw if you are working at it ... could you enable the option of "view my post" after i have posted something ?
it always redirects me to the first page

Some work still needs to be done in my opinion. In my opinion going towards a Vista style design would be nice, at the moment it all seems a little messy. On the plus side I can now access the site from college!

i like the new online indicator thingy. very nice. the threads stretch out across my whole screen and jump now and again but i'm sure everything will be fine in a few days when its complete

Posted by Nanu
@hutchygers

Which new online indicator thingy?

Posted by hutchygers
if somebody is online then the part at the side is sort of lit up a little shaded and online shown. looks better than the little bold online on last forum

at top menu (only at forums)
you get: [inbox] [login] [register] ___unwanted space ____ [help] [search]

just my 2ct

Posted by Nanu
mmmmmm i cant see that!!

Posted by BobaFett
the joystick in the "o" is a very impressive idea, sadly not the real one in the fones...

Posted by zootzoot
Old esato is better, the new one is to confusing.....
bring back the old one

Posted by tranced
the login page has not been modified yet. im in a computer now, finally i got to see the new logo and i must say it looks too way different now . i like this .

now, i seem to have a lot of space left in every part of the page. i think i should have to adjust the width.

Posted by decay_zeit
i like the new looook,good to have changes except logo....it takes time to get used to it....
but change must include some new features and fun,not only differ shapes and icon places...

Posted by sanjcher
since text goes all the way across the screen, reading time has increased, not very easy on the eyes when u got a 17inch screen with 1900x1200 resolution.
liked the old layout much better


Posted by p900 lover
I dont like it, it takes up my whole screen lol

Posted by tranced
who likes the k550 and w880 in the top?

Posted by tranced
will we be able to see what members are visiting a topic?

Posted by below24
It is a little wide, all the "grey". Kinda depressing, i think there should be something green involved.

Im sure we will get used to it, its not what t looks like its the content that were all here for. Althought i did always like the previous widt, maybe they could give us a width option...
