jcjames Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 WTH!? Did GPAnalysis do a major website overhaul recently? I haven't checked in maybe a month or two but it looks awful now! It used to be so clear and easy to navigate and compact - now it's just so much wasted screen-space and clunky! Where's the trending charts? How many clicks does it take to show trends charts? What a mess! Tsp99 and TheGeneral 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzetta Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Agreed... the old style did not look as flashy but it allowed for everything to be readily available on screen for the sake of comparison. I am hoping that it is a matter of 'trying to get used to the new style' and that both of us are wrong... but... I'm not into it. jcjames, Frederic9494 and TheGeneral 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway29 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Man I miss the old gpa site. I am relegated to gocollect now as well, which is better than current GPA, but worse than old GPA. alexgross.com, jcjames, James J Johnson and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I guess I did miss it! LOL Same here - 10 minutes clunking around the new GPA site and I am done. No way Jose! I don't sell slabs anymore so I only use it for updating the value of my slabbed collection so... Cancelling membership today. Will check gocollect.

alexgross.com Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 strangely, the gpa folks are here on the boards and have remained silent on this topic since december, when the new format dropped and the complaints started pouring in. wondering why there's been no real response since then. @gpanalysis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizards2 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 You'll get used to it. It takes awhile longer than the old system, and is not very intuitive. I really wish they'd create a system so that the titles people are looking for are on the top of the page, instead of being buried in a 100 other titles - such as plugging in FF, and having to wade through all those titles no one cares about to find the Silver Age FF.

Not an option, will not be considered, deal with it (my words not theirs). I’ve seen websites roll out new versions and allow people to choose the “classic” interface as an option when logging in. What would the harm in that be...? Edited April 25, 2020 by Callaway29 jcjames and alexgross.com 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. No I won't get used to it. Just cancelled. No option for "classic" version. INCREDIBLE waste of screen space. Way too many clicks needed to get info. Even closely-related content (like comparing 2.0-3.0 data of a certain issue) is too spread out for easy comparison without a lot of scrolling and clicking. Even with this new format, put in "1963" along with "Amazing Spider-Man" and get ready to do a crapton of scrolling to get to #300 Goodbye GPA, enjoy my last payment.

I had to take a moment to highlight these statements. I think its a good commentary for the state of today's society. Is your finger going to cramp up on you with all that hard work, ala George Jetson finger? People would wither away and die if they didn't have the internet. Remember when your phone was just a phone or you had to get your research by other middle-evil devices like encyclopedias. Damn... it's just a website, I didn't like the interface at first but you get used to it with repetition.

Bird Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) the problem to me was the drastic change all at once new gpa gets you the info and I think it is designed okay, it might even be good, but there is such a change in how you approach the information that it is jarring without having the words to express it, the information is folded into itself now when it used to be more linear I find I have to look a few different places for what I want but it is usually there, just not jumping out at me like I am used to so I am getting used to it and the more I use it the easier it is but I still get crossed up often Edited April 25, 2020 by Bird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was renewing on a yearly basis since 2014 and had not turned off the subscription. Once it renewed I made sure to turn it off for next March.

telerites Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 It looks like I am in the minority but I like some of the new features.
