Found this article today about Context and I distinctly ages ago seeing the language mentioned on the left menu as the main language for this site and searching for any details about what language this is.
Would love to read a blog about it's use on mangaupdates.

But this site is in PHP...

Also, in the mobile version there is no button to access to one's own profile. Maybe you could turn the 's name into a link (I mean this one > http://imgur.com/dgXzN9A ).

That's a good suggestion. Right now you can get to your profile by clicking on then clicking on edit profile.

Can't say I love the new design yet, but that's life nowadays, everything needs to be mobile friendly. What can you do? Fact is a huge number of people use their phones for everything, and you've got to move with the times. It is true that the old design was on the small side. Anyway I'm not going to bitch when this website is still such a central, vital piece in my manga hobby. Without it, reading manga would be so much worse in so many ways, so thanks for still working on it and improving it!

This is not a bug, and more a suggestion if you can do it.
I like how most lists on the site have a different color gradient to tell a different series apart; examples being the releases list, works of scanlators, etc.
Can you apply it to manga-ka series titles as well? Especially for manga-ka with a lot of stuff, it can be jarring to tell series apart.

Quote from ImmLff

I fully agree with Transdude1996, Juhachi, bhui, and all other s who say that the font is too large. I also think that on desktop/laptop PC new design looks worse than the previous one.

And, no, I won't get used to it. I have seen similar design changes before, they make everything mobile f ... I second this sentiment. The new layout feel too 'in your face'. I liked it better when there was still some left next to the sidebars. To me the site has become unpleasent to look at.

Please at least give s the option to switch back to the old awesome layout.

Is this the right post to complain about the new design? On the desktop the whole site feels broken with pagination and newlines not working correctly.

The font size is also gigantic for some reason. I have to shrink the site to make it reasonable. There's tons of whitespace added everywhere, especially in the mylist.

The site should look identical to the old site design on desktop, but a bit bigger. Is there something that doesn't look right? Can you provide a screenshot?

Let's see, the search page columns are broken. Releases has different column locations than Series Info, for example.

The My Lists page has tons of white space added to the "Your Status" section that doesn't fit compared to how it was formatted previously (Did it change from left or right justified text to centered text? It looks strange being centered with all that white space.)

I like the smaller scale of the page than the new version which just increased the font sizes. Please add an option to reverse the scaling back to how it was previously.

Initial release is done: https://styles.org/styles/169365/mangaupdates-dark-v2

Let me know if there are any major issues with it (I know it's not 100% finished). Just a quick once-over, but it's complete enough to use at least.

On PC when I go to my lists sometimes the right menu column is not displayed. https://imgur.com/a/l4GJMGV
