Title: Who likes the new look
Post by: CJPhoto on March 05, 2007, 06:01
Looks fresh and bold but it seems to be designed for wide monitors (although so does this site as I have a scroll bar at the bottom - never noticed that before??).

Other than that I dont think there have been any changes.

Maybe a new marketing push?  It is looking a bit more professional so maybe they will start promoting more.

It looks ok. Not too crazy about the orange colour, but as long as my photos come out on top at the searches, I'm ok   ;D

I think it looks a little cheesy, the orange is quite outdated if you ask me.

You can change the colour in the top left corner (click on one of the coloured squares).

the forum seems to have disappered??

It does have a more refreshing look than the last one, I like it... after changing the default orange-coloured theme  8)

Wow, I can't get on..  just tried.  Wanted to see if my 27 pix in review since Feb 6th  had been looked at yet... 
    I got a server down for migration error.   Gee, tomorrow makes a month since I uploaded that batch...    hope with the improved look they get improved review times..   :D

It's also down for me, so I can't appreciate the changes.  As long as no-subscription sales still prevails....

They should have invested their time in attracting sales instead of redesining the website.  It's looks fine, but with their current marketing strategy it will not make any difference in sales.

Get in by going to www.123rf.com

Using submit.123rf.com does not work for me anymore either.

Digiology,

You're right this link works.  Hmm, another site that doesn't look good in Netscape.  And the password field appears before the username field...

The problem is not with the site but with the browser  ;D ;D ;D

Try Safari   ;)

Certainly more cheerful but not to keen on those drop down menus for accessing photographer tools checking stats etc. Not to mention  the fact we still can't upload been a slow few days in terms of things to submit 4 days and counting.

i have bookmarked the stats page so there is no drop down boxes for me.

Maybe this is the first step in a new marketing strategy.

Gee looks great....  would look a lot better if I could find the 27 photos I uploaded on February 6th and were still in review when they shut down for the upgrade.
   I hope they aren't  'missing',  I upload and keyword  individually, one at a time.... a lot of work...
   Worse, I hope the didn't "migrate" into someone else's account... :(     Evidently I've sold stuff since it went down...  I'm still trying to figure out how to see what it was .....

    I have an email into support,  we'll see what comes back.   8) -tom
