Updated Preview of New Videos Page (Begone, Red!)
Thursday, November 1, 2007
Thanks to everyone who checked out our first preview of the new video
browsing page and for letting us know your thoughts. Based on your
responses, we're tweaking a few things in this updated version of the
Videos
tab.
- Tab menu color is now gray, as opposed to red.
- Font size has been adjusted.
- Video categories menu now appears only when you hover over the small
triangle, next to the word "Videos" on that tab.
We got such a kick out of the more "unique" messages some users sent
to us that we couldn't resist sharing those with you. If we had a
YouTube Feedback Hall of Fame, these quotes would be high in the
ranks:
- "Wow, doesn't that look like crap...that color red absolutely sucks.
Who thought blood read would be good when someone comes home from work
and wants to veg out at some stupid meager web videos and find this
vibrant blood red that shocks the eyes into a panic attack resulting
in a deadly heart attack. To all the Youtube CEO's, talk to a
psychiatrist, they can tell you what calm and soothing colors are."
- "The preview is about as ugly as your present look, which I always
assumed was designed by a room full of engineers without access to
photoshop. "
- "When the new layout loaded, i literally jerked away from the screen
because of how unattractive it is! I then thought it might be a
hacker's joke."
- "it looks like you went back to youtube 1.0."
- "dude, this seriously looks like crap...wtf.. lol we are not blind dude."
- "Ack! My eyes! My eyes, they're burning!"
-"Nice, but how about a little more red?"
-"Ugly as ****."
Please feel free to
send
us more feedback on the
new version
.
Thanks again,
The YouTube Team
