Would you like a re-designed version of myLot?

April 11, 2018 11:20am CST
As a passionate web developer/designer, I always pay attention to the designs of websites I visit, and I think myLot is quite good & so simple in terms of design, but maybe it needs just a little bit of refinement for its user-interface, and also some improvements on the user-experience side (UX) for both the desktop and mobile versions. And that's just to enhance the usability and make it more convenient only. I don't mean a complete change. What are your thoughts on this matter? :)

Please don't. (If it ain't broke, don't fix it). MyLot was great 'way back when and then they sold it and it was redesigned and went totally off track. Almost everyone left, they quit being a paying site. Thank heavens it survived, but not with the new owners. So many other sites disappeared after a revamp that was unnecssary and burdensome that I wouldn't want to see myLot changed again. Maybe a very minor tweak here and there, but thats it.

@peavey I'm happy with it too! Maybe I care so much about that because I'm into that domain (web dev). :D

Just minor improvements for the UI/UX, and not a complete change. Maybe I didn't clarify enought what I meant. Anyway, it's just good as you said. :)

@EricMcCole maybe you can join a site called user testing
Be a user tester with UserTesting and you can get paid to use websites and apps as you think out loud.

I love that letters are big, and there is a lot of white empty space. I love smileys, they are same like I used when I was a teenager. I am short-sighted, that is why Facebook irritates me - so many small letters and no empty space. I love the myLot design.

Right! Facebook can be so frustrating for people with low vision! :(

pixelated? what device do you use? do you mean all pictures you see here?

I think images are just fine! Maybe they appear sometimes pixelated if they have a low resolution, or if they are still not fully loaded. :)

I am happy with it and I really can't think in the way you think as you are a professional web designer! Why not ask the admin if they need your help in improving the site? Thanks @EricMcCole!

I'm not really professional in this field. Like I said, I'm just passionate about it, and still have a lot to learn. I do like it as it is now. I just felt like it needed some minor fixes and UI changes. :)

Yes, it is doing just fine! Maybe because I'm into that domain I criticize that much! Lol.. :)

Everything can always use tweaking. So long as the site works and the money flows...who can argue with the rest?
