"If you’re not one of the millions hooked on Facebook, you probably don’t know that Facebook recently underwent a controversial makeover. This 'improved design' frustrated many users, including myself." Hi, I recently wrote a blog post with step by step instructions on how to make Facebook look better. This is the site if you want to check it out: http://dodesign.us/2007/04/15/fixing-facebook/ (includes pictures)
Im one of the many addicted facebook users out there, and I actually dont mind the look of the new design. I think it makes it a lot easier to navigate. I see like a million groups with the "Bring the old facebook back" and I just shrug them off. Some people just dont like change...
Thanks a lot The navigation is better, but the design was bad (at least I think so). Don't get me started on the top right corner!
Once I find the time I'm going to follow your tutorial (thanks!) never knew such a redesign would bug me so much! I'm not picky at all
Usually I get used to design changes (e.g. digg.com), but this one was bugging me too much The old design was great. I'm not sure why they had to change the WHOLE thing.
To make it "unique" and more functional? I think it did the opposite thing! Looks more like the layout was messed up more than.. improving the design I hope there's a facebook group somewhere against this! (you know theres one for almost everything lol )
There tons of groups. This one is the best though: http://hs.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2343686474 And this is the official Facebook Sneak Preview Group: http://hs.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2253022961
Excellent! I'll drop by one (I guess I don't surf enough facebook to notice it). Even my non design savvy friends are not liking the design! Thanks again.
Thanks! Here's a link if you want to share with your friends http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http://dodesign.us/2007/04/15/fixing-facebook/
