Should Mylot change graphics?

Today I returned in MyLot after a month because I was bored and for another time I tough: OMG, why don't they improve graphics? Is so old and "skinny", without images (good ones), color etc... You know, it's a little boring and sometimes it takes away the desire to write. Of course I know that there are a lot of people to meet, that's sometimes is relaxing to write about whatever is in your head, but do you think it could be easier to write posts with better graphics? Let's talk about it :) This site is well established and paying, but I really can't understand why this site is so old-style (also in the payment method). Btw, Mylot hasn't bold, etc... Incredibile. So old... What do you think this site need? Is possible for you to do a massive feedback or is this community already perfect as is?

I am happy someone start this discussion. I was very surprised with the Cash Gopher website (nice graphics) but MyLot simply needs a new design. The site is really well structured, but a little to 'white' and too simple.

Yes, you're right. Moreover you surely noticed some spell or grammar errors in my post and I can't edit! How it's that possible??? What else you miss in Mylot?

Thanks! I have to get used to it. Fortunately I use Safari which has an internal dictionary so I'm ok. I make mistake because of the writing speed. Thank you anyways. Is there something you want to change or add? I'm so curious :D

I actually really like it the way it is. Honestly, I've been to PTP sites where they have TONS and TONS of graphics, bright logos, and they're just really flashy - and it's actually a headache in my opinion! I think it would be more distracting, and the pages would probably take longer to load if MyLot got all fancy. I consider the look to be "classic", not "old". lol.

Yeah, you're also right. I think Mylot creators have to find a compromise between fanciness and fast loading times. It's like makeup: when it's exaggerated it makes the opposite effect you made up for! It's very interesting to ear others' opinions!

You can do pretty much what you like with your profile (I see that you haven't) but most people find MyLot easy to read and clear. Perhaps, in due course, MyLot will change their style and produce something a little more like CashGopher. When they do, I can bet you anything you like that there will be many people crawling out of the woodwork to complain! MyLot does have bold ............... italics and ............ underline and any combination of them. You can use these but you will not be able to use emoticons until you have reached a User Rating of 200

Thank you! I swear I didn't notice that! Unfortunately, as you can see ( :) ), I'm not at that level. Hopefully soon...thumbup
