new design

sorry to say, your design totally degraded your site. It fails. I dreaded the day you would change your site and now it has been done.

It hurts my eyes. And was I to be a new customer, I would instantly click away, looking for Dynadot. Not for this black thing.

Perhaps the inside is alright sort of thing, but the front... missed it completely. It is completely ugly.

A shame, since it does not at all represent the awesome services I always enjoy from you.

Why did you guys change? Your old site was truly awesome.

Thanks.

apparently they don't care what their customers think of their website. This ugly site has been up for awhile now and a ton of us have complained about how UGLY it is and how hard on the eyes it is, but yet they still keep it up.

I am considering leaving too. It really is terrible. The other design worked. Simple. Conversative and minimal

I like the design but agree with some of the comments. I think the contrast between the dark gray and lighter bottom half makes it a bit uneasy on the eyes. I think the top half should be the same color as the bottom half to make it look more seamless. Something like this...

"What are some of the things you thing are ugly?"

How Black is the dominant color for one thing. There is an elegance about white space. By the same token there is something pinched and oppressive about black.

It's no fault of DynaDot's but HTML works in rectangles. The checkerboard of rectangles seems a bit like a ransom note made out of words clipped from magazines.

Signing in to my account took a moment or two to figure out where to go and that the control was dynamic. I imagine I'd get used to it though.

As I said elsewhere, I came away from the site feeling discouraged.

Regards,
