I like the new look but the fonts for the different contest categories and the fonts on the messages that people left under comments (in the blue area) needs to be bigger.

the layout is pretty cool [:
i kind of like it, but i kind of don't.
like other people have said, it'll take time to get used to it.(:

Way too much cyan...too bright...and the limit on text size really messes up you page, that and the change in column width...but for me the worst is the color changes...not all of us have perfect vision any more...

Lo "LOVE new D. Confessional CD!"
this is actually really cool,
it will take me a while to get use to but i feel like there's more to do. idk, are you adding anything new? like new apps or stuff? i like it, i'm just gonna need some time.
but great job!

It's cool,
but i really dont like it too much. I got soo use to the old one:/

eh. i like the look, but like the others, i'll need to get used to it. and idk if its just my dads laptop or what, but i cant c the background on my profile!!!!! y not?!?!?!
Posted 09/03/08 - 09:40am
Jenny Lynn "Keep your coins, I want change"
Eh, I dont like it.

I cant see my background and the colors are too much. We should be able to pick our own colors.

I'd make the text a little bigger. That way everyone can see it. :)
Posted 09/03/08 - 11:03am
Lo "LOVE new D. Confessional CD!"
ps. i like to make my text different sizes. now it's all one size. why can't we change thatt? i don't like that part of it.

WOW! I love it. I think it's much cuter than it used to be.

For those of you who can't see your backgrounds on your profiles anymore you probably need to change your screen resolution. Mine is at 1280x800 and everything looks great!
Posted 09/03/08 - 01:25pm
E R I N "read profile, just for kicks."
umm well, i am really shocked. its guna take me some time to get used to, and i just dont know. maybe i can get used to how my profile looks now and stuff, and maybe il just leave the loot

ohh also, can you please change it back to where you can change font sizes...? because it doesn't work now. XP

it will take a while to redo my whole profile, but I guess it was time for a change. under edit profile it still says i have my cutom background yet it isn't showing. so will that no longer work I wonder.
Posted 09/03/08 - 03:03pm
Logen "boys input needed for blogen"
does anyone see the home button? so we can go back and forth to see if we have new messages while we are on? I wanted to go back to check my entry messages after leaving and now cant seem to find where home is now.

Not meaning to sound rude but i really hate it. I cant read the text because its to small and it hurts my eyes if i try to read it.

Horrible.
Honestly.
It sucks.

That was totally right to hit the sugarloot sweet contest. It acts like a button. How in the world did you figure that out. :-)) Thank you. Now I need a profile corection guide 101 hahahaha

liz "best hair contest coming soon!"
Hi Everyone!

Thanks for all of your feedback. We love hearing everything you have to say.

We are taking note of all of your suggestions. You should definitely keep an eye out for even more improvements.

In the meantime, hang around and explore the site. You might realize that you like some things better than they were before. I know that a complete design overhaul like this can take a little time to get used to, but I think that in the long run you will like it more than the old design.

We took a lot of time researching how you use the site and if you remember we surveyed many of you on what kind of colors and site designs you like. We took your comments and suggestions seriously and did our best to make a site that all of you will love.

One of the biggest changes we made was making the site wider. I've seen some of you comment about how you can't see your profile backgrounds anymore. If you change your screen's display resolution then you should be able to see your backgrounds again and the site will probably look better overall. A lot of websites run wider these days so changing your display may make other sites look better too!

Thanks again for all of your comments and remember to keep checking back for more improvements!

Liz

hey liz and tony, i am a fan of the site and i think it looks better with the new design. i was shocked at first but it's pretty.

i don't know about all of the haters commenting here but i appreciate sugarloot and all of the hard work you guys put into giving us a cool place to play online. i haven't won a contest yet but i still love this site!

keep up the good work
Posted 09/03/08 - 03:40pm
Courtney "comment me :)"
Ok well no matter what 'improvements' you make it still sucks.

?i cant see the effin' text, my profile is fugly, the colors are even fuglier and it sucks.

Why make changes now? It was fine before the only thing that sucked before was the voting system.

From what ive read barely anyone likes it.
Posted 09/03/08 - 03:40pm
Logen "boys input needed for blogen"
Liz that did work. I can see my background now. Just makes the words even smaller. I will get it all worked out. I like the colors. I like how some discussions come up right when you come to the site.

Stagnation is easy...change is hard. :-)) I see Ruth has a larger text on several lines..wonder how she did that? Must be a way..check with her.

eh i dont like the new sugarloot. im totaly lost and what new features? its still pretty much the same. its kinda like cleaning your room when its a mess you know were everythings at but when you change and clean it you cant find a damn thing lol ill adjust tho =]

Ro "has lockerz invities"
The new layout definitely needs some getting used to. I liked the old one better.

& I agree with Shana, the "edit about me" scroll box should be bigger.
Posted 09/03/08 - 04:47pm

Looks great ... tough to read comments though -- need to work on the contrast and fonts
Posted 09/03/08 - 04:48pm
E R I N "read profile, just for kicks."
i think the new sugarloot is actually pretty great, i looked around and its way better, if ur complaining about the font size, then

GET GLASSES!!!

i mean it would be nice to be able to change the font sizes on our comments, but not the actualy size of these discussions, big fonts are ugly.

the only thing i TRULEY agree with is that the edit profile box needs to be bigger, its nearly impossible to put stuff in there when its soo tiny!

but the change is for the better, and people like steffie could be a little nicer about it, its guna take us all some getting used to but seriously guys! look at the improvments!

Nguyen "Ask for 10s and I'll Vote"
Ehh. I don't like it too much. I definitely liked the old layout better. This new layout is just too bright and everything seems stretched out. Especially the profile, which doesn't look good. At all.

Please change it.
Posted 09/03/08 - 04:57pm

And i mean that about the glasses, some of us cant afford them
Posted 09/03/08 - 06:03pm
Nguyen "Ask for 10s and I'll Vote"
Also, there are so many different size fonts on this site now, some are huge and some are extra small.

What's up with that?
Posted 09/03/08 - 06:15pm
Daniella "byebye. ask for my facebook :)"
i like it, its nice.
there are some things which could be improved upon though...
some of the graphics are too big and flashy... it's sometimes uncomfortable to have to be scrolling down so much to get where you want.
Also, the home page! it would be great if we could kinda minimize things... i dont know exactly how to decribe it, but have you seen igoogle boxes? you click minimize and the information dissapears leaving only the title; but you can always open it again.
contrast of fonts and backrounds can also be worked upon..

and the profiles, please make them thinner again! having a personalized backround was awesome, gave a touch of yourself to your profile and i think thats important.
Posted 09/03/08 - 06:33pm
Anne-taking a break- to busy- will msg when back
I like it for the most part, but it is a little bright. For people who can't read the text, if you have a mouse with a "scroll" button on it, the thing that rolls, well if you hold down Ctrl, than scroll you can make it closer and farther away. That fixes that problem. One big thing I am dissapointed in is that there is still a limit on comments, obviosly noone like sthe "why don;t you go get a liquid refreshment thing" so I say remove it, and let people campaign! Whoever is with me, post it! If enough people are, than remove it! Makes it very frustrating when I can only get on once a day because of school, duel enrollment at college, activities and much more. So rid it! =D thanks!
Posted 09/03/08 - 06:49pm
ayeeee its stacie "ayeee"
to the people complaining about contrasting colors being to bright: highlight the text and it makes it black and gray & MUCH easier to read :) but anyways i HATE what happened to the profiles...absolutely hate it. everything else i can get use to but not the profile change...its really disappointing cuz i mean every1 loved having a background on their profile...

The problem I dont like the most is when I get comments|msgs, it's veryyyy delayed.

c i a n a "i want it i want it i want it"
you know what, i like the new sugarloot because it slightley reminds me of myspace and i like the look of myspace. but i think you should add a mood thing like myspace and should beable to change the homepage thing to make it so you can change it to whatevr you want. those are my only comments.

other then that i love it!
Posted 09/03/08 - 07:55pm
Lo "LOVE new D. Confessional CD!"
one last thing! i promise!
i love the new search button!
either that's always been there and i've never noticed it, or it's new.

either way, thankss! it's much easier to find people..

okay, i swear this IS my last comment for this board - i think.

sorry to anyone who's annoyed.

SUGARLOOT IS SERIOUSLY SUCKING. I CANT READ THE TEXT, MY PROFILE IS ALL JACKED UP, AND YOUR VOTING SYSTEM IS UNFAIR!

PICTURES THAT DONT DESERVE TO WIN, WIN. AND PICTURES THAT DESERVE TO WIN LOSE. EVEN IF 1 ENTRY HAS MORE VOTES AND VIEWS THAN ENTRY, THE ENTRY WITH LESS VIEWS AND VOTES WINS !

I definitely don't have as many emails to erase each day ever since yall changed it. Good for me, but not so sure thats good for yall. Seems it sure has gotten quiet. I don't feel like I have the contact I had before with my friends on here. It's wierd. I went ahead and erased most the stuff on my profile because it looked so stupid now with the changes.

Alrightyy im done with you your useless and your not entertaining anymore :/ So dont bother waisting your time i wont reply.

BTW Liz the only things i think need changed are #- the font size, #2- and the bright colors :]]

Only because some of the older members were saying they are having trouble seeing their comments and such, other than that good job though :D
Posted 09/06/08 - 06:56pm

Yeah liz i do like the colors in general but like the background for this [the bright blue + the small text] is hard for me too see, and atm we cant afford contacts so im asking you nicely please change it, it would be appreciated by those who cant read it :]
Posted 09/06/08 - 07:09pm

i like the look and colors but one thing thats annoying is u can't see your background on ur profile ! and now idk what color i have :[
Posted 09/07/08 - 11:07am
Courtney "comment me :)"
^^^ I can see my background :/

The main thing i dislike is the stretched out profile.

And the blue bg for this with the small text is hard to see but on my profile its not hard to see the text because the bg is white.

As for the older members though i heard a few saying it was to difficult.
Posted 09/07/08 - 01:08pm
E R I N "read profile, just for kicks."
i don't get why everyone "cant see their backround" i can see everyones fine, and i can see mine too. maybe its just your monitors you guys.

but do u think we could please make the edit about me box bigger, i was re doing my profile and i remembered just how difficult it is...

I put one of those Pyzam pets on my profile and she looks really cute. She dissapears sometimes, i guess where the page is wider no, but she comes out of hiding. If someone else gets a cat or dog let me know so I can see it. Or a money. I wanna see a monkey.
