Does anyone know if the outfits have an "expiration" date to be in the store or not?

I'm not feeling the new design for the site. It's confusing and overall kinda gives me a headache. The old one seemed a lot more compact & smart. I had trouble finding the forum too.

//Edit: As someone has said before, this new design is clearly not meant for computer users. Completely agree

Ugh, I second that for this website giving me headaches. Before, I used to LOVE navigating my closet (and actually prefer the OLD layout before you had to double click on everything for variations of different colours of the same thing that's supposed to make the closet "more organized", but meh) and had fun with that, but now it's just difficult as every time I click something it keeps scrolling up my tab for me and it's annoying to keep bringing it back down.
Also, I HATE the heading tab with the crystals sticking down as I've clicked that so many times by accident and it took me to a page where I did NOT want to go.

As usual, I have no idea what the heck the team thinks they're doing, but my guess is that they WANT less people to play. -_-

I've been an active member on Eldarya for over 4 years now, ever since it began, but this is seriously the biggest turnoff for me to date, so I'm not sure if I'll be coming online that much anymore.

Congrats, Beemov: you've managed to turn away a veteran member of Eldarya. *sarcastically* Yay you. -_-

Yeah, it's nice and all to get new outfits and more to the story.
But plese do something about the site layout. In my opinion it's terrible.. Everything is so hard to find and it really doesn't look nice at all.

The new layout definitely has its ups and downs. The companion page and the library in particular I think are messy, and everything in general looks a bit cluttered and confusing. It also took me a while to figure out how to get to the forum. But one improvement I noticed was that when you're selecting an item to sell at the auction, the item will pop up on your character, making it much easier to judge if its the correct item to sell (I used to go to my closet first to determine which stuff I wanted to sell).

With the mini games, I'm pretty happy that we get so many rounds a day now and we can play them all at once. Very helpful for earning extra maana. The new outfits (not to mention the new default hairstyle) are all very nice as well.

And I'm glad that the first episode of New Era will be free, but I'm going to try to finish Origins first as I am close to the end of it now. But there is one thing I don't quite understand. They said that our first 4 episodes of Origins will be free. Do they mean just the very first 4 episodes, or can I continue where I am and the next 4 episodes I play will be free? Can anyone clear this up for me please?

Yeah, this is a total eyesore in my opinion. Reminds me of garish tumblr layouts I used to use back in the day.

The new outfits and the removal of mini game wait times is cool and all, but please give us back the market history button and all the old hair colors. There were definitely a lot, but the best part of Eldarya as opposed to MCL is all of the specific customization options

I'm pretty certain it's just the first four episodes.

That's a bummer, but thanks for the answer. I was really hoping they meant any 4 episodes of our choice from Origins. It would've gotten me through almost all of Origins if that were the case.

To be honest the maana change ain't the worst, giving the fact that we can win up to 140 maana/day (if you win all the minigames). To be honest is a little bit better because you know for sure you don't waste maana searching for characters.

As for the layout of the site, I can't say I'm the biggest fan of it. It seems quite messy and everything is just so small... Well, I guess we will just have to get used to it.

People have been saying about the website layout and I agree, it does not work. Would be fun if it got fixed. I can't see a thing and for some reason it took me forever to figure out where I can see my companion's energy.
 
   The app for mobile works just fine, but I am not a fan of the market there. For some reason you can't see the history and it is a bit wonky in my opinion. I want to know what got sold and what did not because I have terrible memory.
EDIT: Oh they got rid of the history. Did anyone else use the history part of the market?

    I like the new outfits, the one we got free must be my favorite because of how simple it is. Kind of gives me this pure-feeling. Kind of wanted to get more color variations but this will do just fine too. Too bad I have nothing else to wear with the new dress. Perhaps that is the idea?

I love the new outfit items and so relieved they're available for maana.
And love that they gifted us a new outfit to start with.

Buuuuut
as someone who uses this site exclusively for dressing up,
right now I can find no way to save each outfit to my computer from the site (screenshots don't count, I want a right click to save. My Candy Love still has that option.)
I've saved every outfit I've ever worn since I started using this site.
And the background is invisible in the closet.

If neither of these things are fixed I might be saying goodbye to this site cuz both those things are vital to how I use this site.

EDIT:
and the site layout agreed.
even if they fix the things I said above, I've been on the site less than 10 minutes and my eyes are watering and it hurts to look at. Before the layout was something I didn't notice and didn't bother me. It was easy to use.
Now? It's physically impossible to stay on this site very long with the current look.
Better fix it quick before you lose users simply because it's literally difficult to look at the site.

I won't even be bothering with the market or minigames cuz it'll take too long and I care about my eyes.

I mean there's quite a few issues with the design but they've already been mentioned by other users so I won't repeat it. However there's something that I need to note and it's that spin-offs now cost maana???? We had to buy those with gold, it's not fair to charge maana for them, they should remain free for those who bought them beforehand. Also, why would y'all remove the history tab in the market? I would like to be able to see the things I've sold and bought in the past tbh.

Right??! It's a shame they removed it. Kind of hope that they will put it back

Well some changes are quiet nice , like the first episodes are free, or that we can play the games 3 times without waiting.

The first thing I will mention that I dont like are the color options of the hairs, I am seeing less colors, and I cant find mine anymore, my color was kinda purpelish white and now it isnt here anymore like in sweet amoris which is dumb.

But the outfits are really nice esPecially the shadow guard one.

The page seems minimalistic , so much that even the font size is miniature, there are some nice parts to it but I miss the background its too much white going on

Why is the updated website LESS user friendly than before?

It looks like an app that would drive me to use the website instead. Good web design is about more than style, and this is too focused on style for easy function. It's also headache-inducing from a lot of bright graphics.

The shops and closet will also make for a long list of website history just by switching between items or item categories, which presumably players will do a lot when shopping or creating new outfits.

Simply put, they overdid it. I appreciate the effort and the creativity that went into the new design, but it is too much.

Woah, they actually changed the icons of the minigames in the new era tab on the app. No more chibi Ezarel and Valkyon on the minigame selection page... Kind of depressing.

Another thing I just realized I really dislike about the new design: you can no longer see the countdown timer for auctions when you're bidding on the market. Makes it hard to bid competitively

Both of the beginning of the app look the same that makes me sad I have not gon to the different spots to see if that changed yet  they could make it look different in some way and I’m very disappointed in the new look for this to they could of keep the old for the old and done something totally different with the new not make all of it look the same  I like the new outfits but I can’t find shoes to go with the new dress

You know how some sites have the option to switch layout designs? I wish I had that option here so that I can go back to the old design. I don't mind change, but this change literally hurts my eyes to look at.

Never have I ever seen a less user friendly design. Of all the countless reasons to quit, I never would've predicted the site layout to ever be final straw. But this? It's legitimately unplayable.

Massive improvements need to be made asap, or better yet, the option to use the old design.

If nothing is done, welp, then I guess I'll be saying good riddance to Beemoov *\o/*

Excuse me but the new layout is a complete mess. There was no need to fix what was not broken. Please at least give us the option to use the old layout.

I agree with pretty much everyone where I don't like the layout and the navigation of the site.

The companion page confused me at first on how to get my companion out to explore and unfortunately I lost 10 gold because I accidentally clicked on the explore immediately button so I'm not very happy about that. Beemoov needs to add the 'Are you sure' prompt again.

The closet is very annoying to navigate because I have to scroll using the sidebar in both the closet and my browser so I can see all the clothing; so it looks like it's going to be a pain to change clothing. Another issue is that I can't see the background very clearly and only shows the blurry version in the back, which is also a pain because I like to match the background with my outfits.

The shops are also very similar to the closet where I have to use both the sidebar of the shop and my browser so I can see all of the items selling and it's especially annoying when I'm looking at the clothing because I have to scroll up and down multiple times.

The market is also has issues with navigation because I have to scroll up and down to see all the items selling properly and the crystal also hides the first item. Trying to sell things is also a pain because every time I click to go to the next page it forces me back up the page and I have to scroll down again if I want to go to the next page or see the rest of the items.

Crystal hiding item

Finally I hate how tiny the font is on the forum. The only thing that I like from the new update is how we can play the mini-games all at once instead of waiting 6 hours.

I really hate the new layout/navigation and I really hope they fix it or like others have said, give us an option to change it to look like the old layout.

You have to practically have your nose pressed against your screen to read anything.

Small font is really hard to read for anyone, especially if you eye problems.

Please, take in to consideration the requests people are saying here.

I agree with most users on here. The new layout is awful and I don't understand why everything looks so tiny. Also it's a bit annoying to constantly get the "your companion is not exploring" notification when viewing the companion page. The layout for the market is also horrible; in my opinion it's much more simple to view lists top to bottom than left to right. The same can be said about the messages page. Now it's harder to tell which are the older messages without looking at the dates and when the messages are clicked on it loads at an arbitrary location rather than directly to the new message. Also as others have stated the blurriness makes purchased background pretty pointless. I do however like the newer graphics (although the site runs really slow for me) and the new outfits are lovely. I also like how the library is organized into different sections.

Some parts of the new design I like, other parts I don't. As some of the other players have said, the blurry backgrounds are kind of useless, and they're by far not as pretty. The new outfits are pretty nice though. The library has some nice graphics too, and I like the crystal at the top of the screen to navigate to Origins and New Era. I don't like how the text is so tiny though. There's definitely enough room at the top of the screen to make the text bigger, so why not? All in all, it's okay.

This new site layout is going to take a while to get used to; I think the thing I miss is actually being able to see my guardian more than just her being on forum posts.

Those new outfits are gorgeous though, the dress is to die for *w*  I also really like being able to toggle through day/night mode.
