    Honestly this update is garbage. This looks like a five year old designed it Eric. Either get rid of it or add an option to switch back to the old style.

    Hey all - thanks for the feedback.

    I know this is a HUGE change. In my experience, any layout change or color change or control change or mechanic change, is immediately met with negativity. That being said I am reading and collecting feedback with an open mind.

    All issues in this thread will be addressed and we will get fixes out this morning. If there are any functional issues broken that will be our first priority.

    While we did make a few site navigation changes (shop, leaderboard, notifications) have been move off of the main menu for example. Majority of the changes was swapping out some text with a comic style text which we feel fits the Free Rider brand better than the font that was used previously. Collecting feedback first impressions on FRHD over the years was that the site is too grey / black which is why we wanted to try testing a blue theme.

    Please give it a couple days to see how you adjust to the change. Again, we will be reading all feedback with an open mind. All functional issues will be prioritized over others.

    I like the revamp, but everything seems smaller(or is everything so big that the view looks small?)
    Personally, I'm not fond of gradients, but I do know that there are people that do, so I think that's fine
    the only thing that's bugging me is that the font for the site feels wierd and doesn't fit the main frhd logo at the top. One is really angular and blocky, while the other is curvacious and funky.

    Is there any way to implement a theme kind of thing that relies on cookies, where you can switch between the two designs?
    edit: Apparently not
