Of course, you're not alone in this world, it's bound to happen that not everyone likes new things.

I like the new format, just not the colors. My eyes are pretty sensitive and I can't take Deluxe (too bright) or Blood (too dark) very well.

But overall, I like it. I just miss Sylo's colors.

I don't like it also.

What really drew me into this sight was the prev web design of batoto. The prev design soldl what this site is about, and it's easy on the eye. Now... its just blinding. Still, the new design is more original than most manga reading sites, that is still a positive, but there is so much negative that comes with it too.

 

EDIT: the dark blue background gave the site a professional and calm feeling too it. Something that most reading sites don't offer. Damn, atleast make it a dark color for the background.

OOoooh noes! Just noticed in the follows that there isn't the last read chapter! ヽ(`Д´)ノ I was using it as a bookmark. My heart just shattered.

I didn't even noticed that the layout changed till i read about 20 chapters of a manga... I'm so blind.

 

@Potato Spud  There's a link on the Follows page that gives you the old format for the follows page on the right side.

I don't mind the new coat of paint, a little on the obnoxious side(that creamy orange), but the 'my follows' page; Full list gone, gone Last read, gone, Language filter , also gone. Have these feature just been temporarily suspended or are these changes permanent?

Creamy orange?  Which theme are you using?

And is this page broken for you, or is there some other problem?

Go to the homepage, scroll to the bottom, click "Change Theme" and try out the alternatives.  You might like "Blood", although the red text is kind of annoying (imo).

The theme does not bother me, I miss the cover shots which allowed me to see what was new on the 'my follows' page at a glance. Now I have to memorize all 800+ titles I follow -_-

 

Fuuuuck, lame.

 

Edit: Disregard that, I figured it out. I don't care anymore :D

The site is a little slow, but nbd. To the people who are complaining about the new site colors: scroll down to the bottom->Change Theme-> Sylo.
 
Alternatively just ctrl+f and look for Change Theme if you're a lazy neck beard. oblivious.png

 

The only thing that the Sylo theme messed up on are the links at the top though:

Also, I remember a couple of months ago I stumbled upon someone's Batoto profile page with a custom background. Can we still do that with the new update?

Hey there Potato, I'll quote you something because I was as clueless as you, but it seems you didn't read the whole topic sooooo...

 

Here you go :
