What does everyone think of the new thumbnails. I love them. They look great on my 22 inch monitor. I was wondering if they look good on other set ups. What do you think?
Opinion seems to be divided (as usual!) - see the comments starting at post #11 of the ‘Customer Appreciation Sale’ thread http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthread/5495/#69500 - two votes for, three against at the time I looked.
Personally I prefer to see as many products as I can on the screen at one time, so I’m not keen.
Edit: but having said that, I can already see some advantages with the bigger images (e.g. “Ah! So THAT’S what the picture was!”) - I could grow to like it…
I don’t think that there are any fewer products on screen at a time. The previous thumbnails had acres for blank space. DAZ3d.com still doesn’t use have the width of my monitor. There is a third of it empty on both sides. It looks like a giant void. I can’t say that I like looking into the void.
Oh yes, those new thumbnails are great - now I don’t get a headache trying to see what’s on the store page - without having to open each product on a new page. I love it.
Now, that’s a welcome change for those of us with ever so tired eyes by the end of the day.
Now, if only we weren’t forced to view the promos as a popup. I much preferred when doing so was an option, nor the only way to view the additional promos.
I definitely like them better than the setup that they replaced. Not sure if I like them better than the old store system, with more items viewable at once. Probably would prefer more items per screen, but I can certainly live with the big thumbnails!
It was a bit of a weird surprise at first (“what just happened? why are these enormous?”) but I think I prefer it now. You can actually get a better idea of what things are, and the sale percentages are a nice touch - and also a handy way of finding out if I’m still logged in or if the store’s logged me out yet again.
All it needs now is a sale expiry date on the page and it’ll be perfect.
I love the new thumbnails, I also love having the sale price and percentage on the thumbs, not to mention having the “This product requires:” back. Great work DAZ!
