pretty cool, i dont mind it. like the tabs at the top personally.
DJ Reflex 4:32 AM - 2 May, 2012
I think it was being updated AS I was trying to post something earlier. It was acting weird... then all of the sudden the screen completely changed to this format. Much bolder - that's for sure. I'll have to get used to it, but it looks good so far. :)
L2daGee 4:36 AM - 2 May, 2012
Still no "edit post" feature. Hmm... Kind of like the release of Serato Video, new look, but not really any new worthwhile features...
DJ Unique 5:09 AM - 2 May, 2012
I like the new look.
Dj Ace 5:25 AM - 2 May, 2012
Yeah the new look is pretty sick!

Fixed now. Thanks for letting us know.

Like the new look too , except when using it at work as the large profile pic's can been seen half way across the office :) luckily my boss is located in another country.
BattleFunk 11:48 AM - 2 May, 2012
not sure about it yet - feels almost top heavy in some parts

Makes you hunk before you post, sort of like drunk dialling
ekwipt 12:07 PM - 2 May, 2012
Fail

Hunk - think

Maybe we should have edit post
Tocayo 1:05 PM - 2 May, 2012
Not liking it myself, no sleak lines to seperate sections and add a more streamline look.
A bit "blocky" for me also. Looks unfinished and dare I say, a tad amateurish.

Edit post also would be good.

Just my personal view.
DJRemixEnt 1:39 PM - 2 May, 2012
not liking it... looks too cluttered
DJ GaFFle 1:51 PM - 2 May, 2012
Still no edit. At least they did something.
Certified Quality Entertainment 1:53 PM - 2 May, 2012
I kinda like it. It needs to grow on me.

What's this permalink thing?
djaction 2:00 PM - 2 May, 2012
The new forums look as bad as the output on Serato Video
DJ JT Stevens 2:02 PM - 2 May, 2012
Going to take a little while to get used to but I think it's pretty slick. Anyone else see a Windows 8, metro UI influence?
The Version Suicides 2:09 PM - 2 May, 2012
When you go to hit the "buy" tab for the vinyls, it just pops up duplicate screen.

Guess you guys didn't need my money today? :)
SeriousCyrus 2:29 PM - 2 May, 2012
I like the taglines on the forum index page, you get a different one each time you go back, last one was

Mixing the truth with rumor
and speculation.


I got an unresponsive script error the first time the page opened though.

I like it. nm
sacrilicious 4:51 PM - 2 May, 2012
Takes a bit longer to get through a thread, but visually more attractive
DJ Dac 4:54 PM - 2 May, 2012
i like it but the only thing i dont like is the huge profile pic's now its clear that im not working at work...
DJ DisGrace 5:00 PM - 2 May, 2012
it's definitely made for super high-res screens... on my 15 MBP I zoom out and it looks more proportional
kthbrdy 5:04 PM - 2 May, 2012
Looks ace guys well done! :)

Finally fixed that font issue. Res looks good now. It's not fading from gray to light to black to light anymore.
djaction 5:27 PM - 2 May, 2012
private threads no longer auto update = this fucking sux

Agreed. Goofing off at work should be kept on the low low. Giant avatars and super big forum titles do not help.
djaction 5:59 PM - 2 May, 2012
use adblock to block the huge goofy pics

there should be an option to change size of text and avatars.
ral 7:20 PM - 2 May, 2012
gotta have a new avatar look
bboysupafly 7:26 PM - 2 May, 2012
yeah nice look.
echa1945mf 7:28 PM - 2 May, 2012
duuude Chris D avatar looked 10x more bad ass now
Robert W 8:00 PM - 2 May, 2012
Ever since they switched it, it keeps saying i have 1 new messege in my tracked discussions. I checked all my tracked threads and it still keeps saying i still have 1 new message. This has also happened on youtube and facebook as well. Oh well, ufk it.
L2daGee 8:02 PM - 2 May, 2012
I wonder if Serato has been developing this website update for the last 4-5 years instead of focusing on making Serato Video what it should be, Mix Emergency.

#Things That Make You Go Hmmm....
CMOS 8:07 PM - 2 May, 2012
Damn you serato. Why do i have to scroll all the way to the top of a thread to get back to the forum?

Thats just bad planning. NO i dont want to use my back button. There should be some sort of link to the right of this box im typing in right now with forum links.

I liked the toolbox. Even if it didn't work well on mobile devices.
DJ Jack Night 8:30 PM - 2 May, 2012
i like it too. totally surprised me though since i just downloaded 2.4.1 yesterday and it still had the old layout. today i come back: blam! new layout :)
ninos 9:03 PM - 2 May, 2012
Forum toolbox on the right side screen was awesome! Tracked,new and provate discussion were all so handy

We have been working hard on this website yes! The web team is an entirely different department to the software development team though. I can assure you that no developers were made to stop working on our software to build the website :)

Glad you guys are liking it!

I miss the toolbox too, used it all the time.

Other than that, looks good.
Laz219 10:46 PM - 2 May, 2012
Just noticed too, embedded video player seems way smoother now too.

I agree, I'm not a fan of the huge top image taking up a chunk of the screen. And I'm on a 28" monitor. I can only imagine what lappy users are seeing.

I really like the rest of it though.
DJ Eazy B 12:21 AM - 3 May, 2012
I'm feeling the new look
The Version Suicides 1:25 AM - 3 May, 2012
@Samuel S.

Still can't get the "buy" tab to sell me vinyl.

Still a work in progress?
