New stage on DAZ website

Don't know whether I get this as part of a test group or if it is completely rolled out already but the new stage on the DAZ website sucks big time.

Before it was easy to quickly swipe through the running promos with the most current one on the left. Sure Fast Grab and Freebies were often not visible initially but one could easily reach them.

The new stage blocks 50% for PC+ (hey, I'm already a member, why do I get this once already signed in?), Fast Grab and Freebies. The other 50% is for the promo tesers which are now part of a rotating element which does not support horizontal scrolling and does not contain a status info (how many promos are in there). Totally annoying from my point of view.

I know that improving things is not easy as folks are just used to things and nobody wants to change habits. But this "redesign" is IMO unfortunately making things more complicated than easier. Just my 20c.

    I don't know what new look people of the Daz website people keep talking about.  I use Chrome and it looks pretty much the same to me as it always has.

    They may be doing A/B testing, where half of us get the old layout and half get the new one. Here's what the new one looks like and, as Rod says, it's not an improvement. The current offers, which is the bit I'm intersted in. are squeezed into an ever-changing panel in the top left.

    I'm just hoping that the renewed prominence given to the freebies and fast grab means those sections will get refreshed more often with more nice things in them.

    Fast grab already has new items every day, how often do you expect it to be refreshed?

    Another "not happy with the new layout" voice from me.

    It is awfully clumsy and uncomfortable.frown

    I prefer the new layout. I used to have to scroll for days to get to the fastgrab section.

    Fastgrab is almost always somewhere at the end. So one click on the left arrow, and boom, fastgrab is there for you immediately.

    Since there is already a thread on this I am locking this one.
