TOPIC | What do you think abt FR's UI?
1 2 3
I mean, I think it's cool how the site edges change depending on what lair you're in to reflect their flight element, but I feel like the dialogue boxes and the red/yellow color scheme kinda clash.

Don't get me wrong - I don't dislike it, and this post is not in suggestions just because re-making the UI would be a LOT of work so I'm not even gonna bother, but I kinda just wanna know what people think about it.

In summary: I like it, but think it needs an update.

I like it, but it needs to be updated to have responsive design so the menus are more accessible on mobile.

i like it! i actually really like the red and yellow color scheme, it seems fitting for the site's theme and brand. i like how bright and colorful FR is compared to dragon cave, for example.

an update wouldn't hurt, it could look a bit more modern, but i don't think it necessarily needs an update. a more accessible mobile layout would be very helpful though.

[/quote] i agree!! i love arcane but the crystalspine reaches is, in my opinion, the most boring arcane subregion to make the header... just a bunch of pink rocks in the water... i'd love customizable lair headers! i'd definitely make mine starwood strand ;w;

I like the UI. I don't really like the modern UI design philosophy where everything must be sleek and neat, it takes character away from the site and sometimes makes things harder to recognize and identify. Everything is easy to find with the bar on the side, and the aesthetic is pretty fitting for a dragon pet site.

I don't think the UI itself is horrible to use on mobile, but there are some parts that should be changed (dressing dragons on mobile is still a nightmare...)

I do think night mode should be a thing though. The current UI can be a little eye searing in the dark, with all the white.

I actually don't mind the UI at all, especially in the lair revamp they did, which made the quality of life easier. I'm currently hoping that there would be an apparel UI overhaul in the next few updates or so, since compared to the lair UI, it's inferior. Ill still support the dev team for whatever update they'll bring '''[emoji=gaoler happy size=1]

The current website design is based off older website design philosophy: most computers/monitors used to be taller than wider, and older websites are designed with that in mind. That's likely part of the reason for the site edges: the website design needs to be completely revamped, not just individual pages.
