New site layout?

I'm still getting the new layout, the image galleries still have huge gaps in them, every image after the first page is still opening in a new tab instead of a preview and the image search no longer scrolls, forcing you to click on each page individually.

It's been almost half a year, are the Staff doing anything about this?

I started to get it more frequently too and I tried to see if anything improved. Unsurprisingly, the parts they tried to change are still bad.

- The font is too big in the comments and titles of "Related Entries" on meme pages.
- I don't like the top bar staying on screen when scrolling down.
- Hovering on pictures in galleries doesn't show their title when it should. Also scrolling in galleries is kinda laggy.

And, I must be in the minority here, because I prefer opening pictures in a new tab rather than the preview thingy, but ctrl+click opens the preview instead of a new tab.

Not sure what you mean. I gave that a shot just now and all it did was open the image in a new tab again, only without switching to it. (still might find it useful tho)

Welp, I've contracted new-site-itis again. Time to test my issues:

- Hyperlinks in comments are indistinguishable from regular text: STILL THERE
- Can't vote on images or see the votes already there without going onto their page: STILL THERE
– Sorting photos by High Score doesn't work yet all the other options do: STILL THERE
- The spoiler and looong labels don't seem to be working, displaying the images plain as day in the galleries. Spoiler/NSFW images default to just NSFW: STILL THERE
- Occasionally when going to an image or article, the page is blank. Sometimes it fixed by refreshing, sometimes I have to go back and click again. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it: STILL THERE
- Clicking on one of the Trending Images below an image's page brings up the image, but not in the centre. The image is placed in the bottom right of the page and a blank box is in the centre instead: STILL THERE
- Having trouble using back page button, sometimes needing to make multiple clicks to get it to work, mostly present on the gallery pages: STILL THERE
- Can't deselect an image from a gallery page by clicking the black background, having to click the "X" in the top right corner: STILL THERE

For new issues:
- The five thumbnail photos to memes at the top of the website are broken. They're displaying as a bullet point list now, taking up the entire page, for some reason. Also trending is now awkwardly below said bullet point list.

Not a single issue I have fixed and that new bug with the top thumbnail images turning into bullet points makes the site look like amateur hour. Come on, KYM! I'm sure at least one of you higher ups is reading this forum and seeing these issues.
Ah well, switching back to the old site.

Got it a few minutes ago, my two cents:
- still no way to upvote a picture from a gallery's preview, as you can do on the old UI;
- you can't even see from a gallery's preview how many comments a picture has, if any, actually;
- on a picture's page, the meme's name and the picture's title are both black, instead of the meme's name being shown in reddish brown as in the old UI, and the fonts are similar too, so the two are read within one global slop, which is not practical for comprehension;
- the pictures loaded from a picture's page have the same bug that has plagued the old UI for months now, where the message "A winner is you!", that's supposed to appear only when a gallery has been fully loaded, will appear after the first 20 pictures;
- the other bug that has plagued the old UI for months, which opens any 21st and beyond picture from the general gallery directly into a new tab instead of opening a preview, is not present in the new UI, so… success? Hurray?
- no sign of the doomscrolling-inviting disposition of the pictures, that's good – although that's on my laptop, I don't know for sure if it's the same on mobile.
