We're testing a brand-new version 3 page layout at the Cave page. It's viewable and visible to everyone. Let us know what you think!
Everything on this page should look very familiar and be in a similar spot. But the biggest changes you'll notice are the styling of the top navigation bar and the sidebar. Check it out and then give us a vote on the Cave page itself.
Do you like it? Tell us what you think.

Well.. The Halloween Fair sidebar is hogging a lot of space compared to when it was at the top. Otherwise fine, I think.

You should do the shoutbox come back to the last version, the message used to appears automatically,
now restarts the whole page just to post a new coment!!
immortalraven • 24 Oct 2017, 12:42 PM
It says cave layout but other stuff is changed too so would it be all or? o-o The only thing I don't like it that it gave me the
immortalraven • 24 Oct 2017, 12:43 PM
notification as a popup on the left side of my page. When those were on the old version and I got a lot of them they made me kinda sick
jello • 24 Oct 2017, 12:43 PM
NOTIFICATION BELL!!!!!!!!! IVE MISSED YOU!!!!!!!!!
immortalraven • 24 Oct 2017, 12:44 PM
feeling when all disappeared at once >.< Otherwise I am indifferent or like the changes that I see.
elivelton_white • 24 Oct 2017, 12:45 PM
The new profile's page sucks
paige • 24 Oct 2017, 12:50 PM
Mmmm I actually love it ! c:
immortalraven • 24 Oct 2017, 12:51 PM
When you vote does it give you a place to write what ya liked and not?
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 12:55 PM
I like that the header buttons show their links on hover now. I _really_ missed that.
bribri1114845 • 24 Oct 2017, 12:56 PM
I like it! Having the notifications/mails/friends alerts right at the top is a huge improvement, imo. The events stuff on the side rather -
than the top is better placement, too. and I like that we can see more of the pretty header artwork!
bribri1114845 • 24 Oct 2017, 12:57 PM
@silverserpent YES! I didn't notice that but that's another huge improvement. đ
brad • 24 Oct 2017, 1:05 PM
It seems okay. I think the fair stuff should stay at the top though. You guys keep messing up my CSS edit. đ You should totally make the...
...bell ring when you have a notification. Just a fun little thing I do. đ Little side effect is the fair "Now" but, meh, I'm lazy to fix..

I like for the most part except the adopt cave screen is HUGH & I like Halloween Buttons at top better. Thx for letting me comment!
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 1:06 PM
@bribri1114845 Totally is! đ I think the font size should be the same as on the current version though. A bit small on the new one.
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:10 PM
Okay, I don't like it's soooooo wide... I'm really tired of rolling Cave up and down to point creatures.
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 1:11 PM
More reflections: The white content area is a bit too wide. I prefer the current max width, to be honest. (I'm on a 1080p screen.)
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:12 PM
Another thing I don't like - Halloween side bar. Upper location is much better.
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:20 PM
And about good things đ I like automatically popping up panels with shops and other.
And I like the icon of avatar (with panel of necessary things) and notification and mail icons.
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 1:21 PM
For the record: I feel like I'm missing a third :| faced option when voting. One that says: "I like some parts, others not."
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 1:23 PM
Something that would be really neat would be an anchor point that auto scrolls you down to the eggs after pressing "Return to the Cave".
anarchy • 24 Oct 2017, 1:24 PM
I love it, personally. I feel like it's a lot more cleaner and user-friendly than the current layout, imo.
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:24 PM
Soooo, generalizing... I can't say I like it or not...
I agree with people saying the Halloween/events sidebar should be kept at the top. The main user sidebar is more important and I think-
anarchy • 24 Oct 2017, 1:26 PM
its good to give it more focus. I think the top bar is perfect. Especially how it opens up automatically without having to click.
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:31 PM
@silverserpent "an anchor point that auto scrolls you down to the eggs after pressing "Return to the Cave" Yes, I want it too đ
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 1:32 PM
@pooh Would save us sooo much scrolling. đ â¤ī¸
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:33 PM
Aaand, I want a Star showing up at the creature! I sometimes forget to read "yes" or "no", and I just want to see the Star!
pooh • 24 Oct 2017, 1:36 PM
@silverserpent Agreed đ
arvak • 24 Oct 2017, 1:49 PM
The first thing I notice and LOVE is that I can just click one button to get to my notifications! This is awesome. â¤ī¸
lucas • 24 Oct 2017, 1:53 PM
I love it! Also, unlike everyone else here it seems, I do really like the new halloween sidebar. I just can't really like it at the top xD
witika • 24 Oct 2017, 2:01 PM
Being a returning user, it reminds me of Xanje 2. I love it.
icedmagma • 24 Oct 2017, 2:12 PM
Ooof. Everything is way too big and takes up too much space on the screen. I do like the header buttons though.
rosewolf09 • 24 Oct 2017, 2:58 PM
i mean i like but i dont it hogs up alot of space. its toobig or takes up to much space
prairie • 24 Oct 2017, 3:21 PM
I'm pretty OK with all the changes, but I agree strongly that the Halloween events should stay at the top. đ
prairie • 24 Oct 2017, 3:22 PM
also, as a visually picky person, I feel like I should be able to change the view of my creature in the bubble that shows my pet @ the top.
sparklefox • 24 Oct 2017, 3:24 PM
It's interesting. I like this layout, including the sidebar. It seems a little big to me, though.
novrain62 • 24 Oct 2017, 3:33 PM
It's okay EXCEPT for the Annoying yellow Notification pop-up that comes out every time on the bottom left of the page. I do not like that!
novrain62 • 24 Oct 2017, 3:34 PM
We already have a notification alert on the top which is just fine. I LOVE the cute little picture ICO N at the top of our page on the right
novrain62 • 24 Oct 2017, 3:37 PM
O and is that why I have not seen a Star Creature since V3, because I have to read for YES???? I didn't know that. It's small, so I never c
novrain62 • 24 Oct 2017, 3:38 PM
I have been looking for the STAR itself, not a YES. âšī¸
megadash • 24 Oct 2017, 3:42 PM
Just a suggestion: Could you please move the "Approach Count" and time to "Next Approach" near the selections?
megadash • 24 Oct 2017, 3:43 PM
I â¤ī¸ the new look, but I can't see them in one view w/o messing-up all of my tabs on my browser.
nine • 24 Oct 2017, 3:54 PM
Ooh, I actually really like how that bar at the top looks. The rest is kind of just... ehh.
silverserpent • 24 Oct 2017, 3:55 PM
Second evaluation from a 1280x920 screen: The white content area covers too much. The pretty background is hardly visible. *thumb down*
