In case you missed it yesterday, we're testing out a new look (but familiar feel) at the Cave (and on the Cave page only for the time being). It includes a prettier navigation bar, more consistent sidebar, capped container widths (i.e. not expanding so wide on your screen), and easier access to your notifications, friends, and PMs.
We've been able to implement much of the feedback received about the page in the last 24 hours. Here are the latest changes.
We're opening up voting for the new Cave page layout again, including for those of you who already gave us your feedback yesterday.
In short, visit the Cave again today and give us a smiley or a frown face to let us know what you think. In addition, post your specific likes/dislikes on this blog post or via tickets.
Thank you for helping make the look and feel of Egg Cave a community effort!

I like almost everything about this newer layout, except for one thing. There isn't a visible "Cave" button... on the site called "eggcave"-

-Just saying, the center of the entire site should be immediately visible, not tucked into a corner with the Lelia Oasis and the Asteroid...

Yessss! Auto scroll! Where do I send my invoice? *cackles like an evil witch on Halloween* π
The auto scroll could also be implemented on the page with your Cave find so the page scrolls to focus directly on the Adopt button.

The Halloween Fair bar being back is just great. Would prefer it to be the same size as on the current website though. Too big.
Other than that: Great! I will press the π face this time. π

My concern about taking the Cove Health tracker from the sidebar is that if ever there is a reason the Leaf of Vaka might-
lose its effect erroneously, I think I'd like to be alerted by the fact that it did not read 100% one day.
I know I could check for myself every so often but it's not necessarily something I would think to check often enough.

@blueedition25 oh my that's interesting π± @veritaspunk I don't really check EC on mobile π

Can't find the place to smile or frown, but I have to frown a little. It's not convenient to have to expand the top menu to see it.
utterlyweird • 26 Oct 2017, 3:48 PM
And the top bar for the even could be smaller. Other than that, it looks nice.

We should have something to allow a member to stop an auction, because someone may accidentally click on a creature they didn't want to!

I NEED THIS NEW LAYOUT. whenever I go to the cave, itβs like taking a shower. Leaving the cave to any other page is like putting dirty

clothes after the shower. Although I do appreciate the notification bar in the bottom left, reminds me of v2, we should have an option to
jello • 26 Oct 2017, 9:10 PM
cancel or enable it. I also like how the average cove health is visible, but not too big, fitting snugly within the cove tab.

Could we get auto-scroll on the egg-naming screen too?

Something I like about the "new" Cave is the return of the little star icon on star eggs. Makes them easier to spot. πΈ

Good thing - the new menu doesn't disappear after a middle-click in Firefox when I open each game in turn. Only worked in Chrome before...

Like the auto scroll, but kinda wish it was smaller. π±, feel like I got to used to smaller white space, so it bothers me. XD
