I wasn't sure in which part of the forum to post it, but you can move this if it's a wrong place.
 
Can someone tall me why the sites design has changed? Did I miss something? I think the previous design was perfect. So why did it change?

Look at the band pages.

I think it's an excellent change! Can't find the key albums though.....

Prog is all about progressing.  The forum has changed (mostly just arranging subforums differently and adding  a few.)   Let's progress with the forum.

I like it, apart from a rather large number of eBay and Amazon ads. The idea of links to forum topics for the band is good. Also like the way the albums are laid out now.

I don't like it at all: The key albums have dissapeared, all the pages are full of adds, the albums are ordered by release date, but, the release date isn't shown in the overview appart from the studio albums.
 
For me the new layout is much more inconvenient, maybe the scripters can add a button to switch to old layout. But off course it's their choice whether to make such a button, and i fear their choice 'll be the wrong one.

I don't think it's inconvenient, you click "Full Disocraphy", etc. right under the band picture. I think it might be better if there were a few less auction/amazon adds though and maybe they could put those at the bottem. Personally I'd rather see the albums they have in their catelog before I start auctioning for them.

Meanwhile the release dates are added to the overview, looks a bit better.
 
Because of the adds, more members will be using addblock or something like that, and that will cut off a lot of the income for Progarchives.
 
 
But I still find the old layout better especially because of the key albums, but also of the discography in a 'list', instead of the 'gallery' like it is now
