It took me ages to find this blog!!!! IS there any shortcuts to take like on the previous website design? But otherwise it rocks!:D

Hi the new look and features are good but it looks like black n white :S

Loving the new site. So different , not just a new colour but loads more exciting features and cool stuff.

This is great!!!

I will be honest here, me adn all my admins are having a hard time acessing your new updates. They are very glitchy, and we are hoping you change it soon! These updates have ruined a lot of things now, and we can’t even change our font color or text.

I love the new look, thats all i can say

Yes!! I love the New theme Webs, its awesome. Keep up the great work you guys are doing

I CANNOT EDIT MY ISTE AS THE ADD CONTENT SECTION IS COVERED BY THE NEW LAYOUT

I absolutely LOVE the new makeover. It took me a minute to find out how to edit the sidebar, but I found that you just put your mouse over the sidebar and click.

You have done an amazing job. Now, I’m looking forward to more new features. It would be great if you could add more templates for us.

Great Looking Website- I’m loving it!

Indeed, I noticed the new look; but sorry, I prefer the old one that’s simple and more user-friendly. Don’t like the reverse design white text on black. Can’t find my way now. For our site alone, is it possible to have the old look please?

I am sure I will find some advantages like have been detailed here, but so far the old way looked better, was color-coded in a way that made it easier to navigate, and it’s missing the view to site button after making changes in it’s usual spot. It always had view site in the pages menu. It seem to go slower and get more confused with multiple clicks through various administrative menus. I am sure this conserves hosting bandwidth, so I hope it finally starts working faster. I guess it will take some getting used to. The other to me did look better, but maybe others will disagree. I wish that some warning was given, because it took my a while to find this note. The sign-in was even more attractive before. I wonder if Webs partly is just copying another hosting service, but apparently there are improvements. Everything just looked so polished before, and now it looks rudimentary. I don’t get it. Thanks in advance if it does turn out to be better.

I like the new design but I can’t find the forums now :S
Or have you deleted them like people were saying you would?

All that black makes it look very serious and grim.

Wow, Webs.com now looks better than ever before…Nice job.
How do I manage my sidebars now?

All right, I’ve got it now..Thanks

Do not like the new changes. Where is the box that allows you to change font, color, spacing of sentences, etc…..?

If someone can help me w/finding the CONTENT BOX, FONTS, FONT SIZE, JUSTIFICATION, COLORS, etc., tool bar w/the new “look” I’d appreciate. Each page comes up OVER the toolbar and I am unable to use those edit functions.

Its awesome!

Not real excited over your make-over. As is the case with so many make-overs, the “new and improved” is much more complicated to navigate and provides TOO MUCH info. The look is good — the function is overkill. Thanks!

“CHANGE” is difficult for many and it takes a while to adjust. In the end, your modifications may prove to be an improvement. However, I would like to point out:
Colors blue on black are too hard to see on some screens. While it looks OK on my 22″ when working on my 15.6″ laptop — not so good.
Trying to find items hidden behind hyperlinks – like My Messages – is difficult. Yes, later when we have had experience and “know” where to look it will be easier. Now, especially if you are rushed, it is very difficult.
Loading SiteBuilder sure seems to be slow today. Maybe you have a lot more traffic as people are looking at the new design???
While your redesign is appreciated, it sure would be nice to increase the speed. For example, increasing Publish times would be helpful.

For some reason I can’t access the Webs website or any other .webs website. Help please, because I really want to continue working on my website.

Outstanding changes. but under the hood application also need to be changed and streamlined ,like member page , control panel. etc.

When I try to edit all the correct features are on the home page. But that is the only page it is allowing me to edit. How do I edit the other pages please???????

I can` t edit the (colume)right side of my site , what is going on , I need to update my site, this is causing me a big headache . why why why I FEEL THIS UPDATE IS A BACKWARD LEAP , NOT GOOD !! can someone help pls…!

Congradulations webs. I am verry Pleased with the new layout and look.
Its modern and exiting…
Thankyou…

Hi nice design, but i cant change font and i cant add link, videos, photos, html…. and this happen in firefix, chrome and explorer.. im sad

it is taking more time in loading than previous one. is it desirable

It’s strange…I can’t sign in or go to any other Webs.com websites…Is this a glitch that happened during site change?

Oh my Goodness! I got on Webs this afternoon, and I was like -”Wow! Webs has changed, and it’s so cool!” I love the new look!

Well….the new lay out is very hard to understand. I was just getting to know the old one then it changed. I wish the old lay out was back because it was alot better with uploading and finding things. There should be button that gives user the choice to change between this lay out and the old one.

The new update seems to be really slow. I checked my signal and it is excellent. I am learning the new version and really can’t make an adequate decision right now, as with anything new, it takes time to navigate through, just like it was when I first began with the old. Are you going to have any new themes.

This is a nice look. But, it’s not like you guys added any new templates. You just made some more backgrounds, here and there. It only seems that you just organized it and changed the look, and everything is still the same.

I CAN’T EDIT MY SITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really like it!! but I can’t find the edit tools such as content box, font, font color, tool bar, video download, picture download and etc!!!! Please can someone help me on thizzz?????? I can’t edit anything

@Jamie: To edit your sidebars, just click on the sidebar area when editing your page and it will take you directly to the sidebar manager.
REPLY : To webs , I have tried this, and still not working !!

Ok, this is confusing!

You’re killing me with this new design. The tops of my web pages cover the bar at the top so that I now cannot add anything to my sites because my web page covers everything but the tip of “Page Options.” If I can’t update my sites with new content boxes or pictures, I’m going to have to close these sites and search for a new web hosting service.

the change is really nice looking,,,,,,but every positive has a negative (or vise versa). Basically, its to large for my large screen so I have to minimize everything, and it won’t let my do variuos tasks, but, lots of the new options for backgrounds and templates are super nice, and WAY better! I’m LOVING the look of my site, despite how difficult it was to make it.

I think the site theme shoud be decorate with light colours. I respect your webs work but i’m the member of webs and it’s my resposibility that i should point out the wrong thing those aren’t in the favour of webs community. Just I’ll say color shoud be light.
Thanks.

please I wanna ask about how can I access to my messages and the filled forms applications.
previously before making this updates, there was something called “community” tab and then “messages” tab where I can see all my messages and inbox and forms.
please someone tell me how can I reach there after this changes?

the look is too square and the colours are single- no shadow or soft edge.

would like a softer feel to it.

This is so much nicer and more professional looking.I love the new look.LibbyE

Where is the Addons ? i want to look at my poll results on my site but cant find the addons button ?

its done … thank you webs team.

Wow!
I i like it

When i use most web browsers, the tob bar in the site editor, the one with link, html, addons, ect wont show up ? its covered up by my logo ?

Sorry but I don’t like it….I can’t evn add content boxes anymore, i could when you had the old backround but now i can’t and the aps, i can’t add them anymore either, The new backround and all that won’t let me to anything but change my page names and hide them, so I think i might be leaving webs because nothing works anymore =(

but the colors are nice….

Woow! I <3it!!!!

The refresh is looking good! Any word on some new templates for us “common” designers, too? Or am I going to actually have to learn coding? ?

The new website looks so much more professional. I am astounded by the new UI that Webs has put into place. Great job, Webs!

I really like the new look, it seems to be faster. but i can’t find the side bar button. it would be nice if that were visible

AWSOME! Love the improvements. More options as well. Still figuring it all out.

You listened to us! Love the look and feel of the new site!
Feeling like a proud member today
..of to explore..!

I love the new look and the features. It rocks!!!!

Though the new look is nice and I can navigate everything much easier, I tried to view my page from my PC and the whole page is cut off on every page. I can scroll down to the bottom. In edit I can see everything on my page, but when I type my page in the browser to view it, I only see 1/4 of the page.

Let me know what to do.

OK so now i found that you can indeed add a video so good job! BUT HOW TO DO YOU RESIZE THE VIDEO? IT is so small, i want to make it bigger. HOw do i resize it?

Okay, so I’ve read through this forum love the new look, might take a bit of getting used too but so does everything! Just ONE question that I couldn’t find an answer too, How do I actually ADD a sidebar? I’ve tried clicking to the side of my page and nothing happens? And I cannot find any button saying “Sidebar” or “Add Sidebar” ect…? But I really need one :/ HELPPP!!

Aidan.

Okay… love the new webs.com skin, but where are the new templates that ar listed under “features” on webs.com home page? The are listed as doubtfire, Joorang, Unite, Atlantic, and Classic. Even after I cleared my cache I can only see all the old templates and not these new ones.

Being with the webs in the past 3 years and now discovering new look and make over of course take sometimes to get use to it

I would certainly hope that this changes will not causes too much hassle for us in anyway.

High Hope on Webs

Although the new design is OK (it takes up more space at the top), you should at least make it compatible with IE 8. Sometimes, I need to either enable or disable compatibility view with IE 8, depending on what task I need to do. I do not like the fact that the Webs editor is suited for Firefox.

Oh and by the way, can someone please give me more information on Webs removing the personal Forums?! Unless they mean the super, super old one, I’m not too happy about that.

The new layout confused me at first, but I was soon abil to get a hang on it.
Finding this blog a little to late, ha ha!

The new theme looks very nice and very professional… however:
1. There are no new templates. Come on, guys. I’m sitting here staring at these cool templates you have shown in the pictures (‘Atlantic’, ‘DoubtFire’, etc.) and it makes me wonder when we might get something. I realize these templates may be either a) prototypes, b) some of those “professionally designed” templates, or c) templates that you make in your free time, but they look cool. I know my template needs some serious template updates.
2. There are no new applications. I know that you don’t necessarily provide the applications, but ever since the Buzzworthy app was discontinued, I have been dying to get ahold of a good widget/html document for a news feed. Please, at least, get another one of that kind of app back!
3. There aren’t any updates to what you can do with the pre-existing templates. Multiple navigation bars, double-sidebars, columnized footers (like what you have), etc. would be great to have! I’m not completely (if at all, really) savvy in CSS or even very much HTML so I can’t create that kind of a thing for my website myself. Please help us out!

Thanks for your time and I hope some of these wants can be answered with an “It’s coming soon!” or an “It will be out ‘x’ day!” I know it’s crazy to ask for that, but I’d really like to see some of these features!

I love, love, love this new look. It looks very professional. I was so amazed when I logged on and saw the new look. I am very immpressed….good job.

Before the up-date I had my side bar turned off. But I will like to turn it back on, how to I access the side bar menu to turn it on and off?

When I opened the account of my webs and see the change I was really amazed, its a beautiful gift by webs to its members on Christmas and New year. Merry Christmas and Happy New year to all the webs staff and members.

It’s a nice new look but editing a page may be a bit difficult…
Some bugs are annoying though…
Hope you can fix them soon.

lol webs :p the page not found page is still have the same old theme of webs :p

check it http://www.webs.com/notfound.htm

this is realy good well done webs and could u make more backgrounds as i have used lodes of them and i would like to see some new ones

Hi ALL at Webs.com, what a wonderful surprise when I logged into my website!

Love the look, and overall ease of the site! Perfection! Happy Days. x

This is so powerful and it has made things look better

I’m having a problem copying and pasting a few things out of my blog onto one of my new pages. I was able to do it but not anymore. Why not? Anyone have an idea? Please help.

Hi,I’m glad for the new changes and all but I can’t seem to upload any videos to my site at all.Neither can I write any articles to my site.Please can you help me?

i am not finished and the nav bar keeps cahnging, now i can’t edit from the new bar,
can’t find the texture backgrounds today and the black nav bar is hard to read a different light angles of my lap top. why would i upgrade with so many problems

sky

The content box button and other buttons are covered by the new lay out: So I cannot add new content……

I dont Like the New Look..And i Found Some “Bugs” The tool Bar is Half hidden! PLEASE put it back to normal…….

I would like to say, oh my Gog!!! This is very nice and easy to operate . In addition , I would mind telling you that I am very impressed .
Thanks to all of members of the webs team.

That was my first thought but nothing shows up. Does it make a difference if I use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer?

Webs Team – I have tried everything to enable my sidebar, like you just said, i tried hovering and spent half an hour leaving my mouse in different places. No edit sidebar or enable sidebar button appeared. I really need a sidebar! Please help!!

Nice one thanks, maybe a button in the control panel might be a way around it lol! Thanks

Template looks so sleek, polished and professional. Combined with the other enhanced features may be the tipping point for me to switch over to Webs for simplified elogence for a non techie like me who doesn’t like fussing with HTML code and theme stuff in WordPress.

Everyone here who is mad is just plain dumb… Empty ur browser chach and cookies for the 12th time now. Webs this looks great much more exeptable. And still think that you should let us remove ads through the credits shop! Like 200 credits for 6 months of no ads…. And if I get a domain from the credits shop will it remove the ads for the one year that the domain is activated?
Thanks
Love the updates
*kills weebly, web node, jimdo’s butts
Jaiden

update is much better than the original well done webs Team

help , how do i get back to setting up web page??

hi
Just would like to let you know that since webs site upgrade i have been unable to edit any content in my webpage. Everything loads up ok apart from the toolbar which enables you to change font and add content. I have tried on a few pc’s and also internet explorer and firefox, but still no luck. Is this a bug you know about or are in the process of rectifying the problem or is it something to do with my pc’s?
Thanks..
jay

I agree with Jay, I can’t do much on my site either. I can’t upload any photos (which is very frustrating as I rely on my site for this). The format doesn’t fit my computer screen unless I change the resolution, making the letters so small they are hard to see. There are other things I don’t like either. I have put a lot of work into my site and now don’t know if I will have to move it to a different company. I picked Webs because at the time it was easy to use and I could manage my site at any time. Now that is not true.

The new colour scheme looks classy, though the top toolbar is now cut off on IE, so I have to use Google Chrome to edit the content on my pages. IE was much better for editing, as I could paste and resize images in the content boxes, so I hope this is just a temporary glitch

The new design is beautiful! We so much appreciate the good work that you do. God bless you!

Looks great! Sign of a strong company is progress.

I built my website through webs 2 yrs.ago, the simplicity and understanding of website building was excellent for our business. This new format will be easier for our business. Thanks.

Love the new design. Will we be seeing any new templates soon?

Hi, I am having the same problem as Jay. I love this site and I really need the editing problem to be fixed! I can’t add content, links, or anything else. PLEASE HELP ASAP !

The black background is darker and harder to read. The builder looks a little different, but basically laid out the same with no new features on the edit tool bar. It took me an hour to find the tiny little icon that you hover over to get a little window so I could log out. It was right out in the open before. The old look was bright and easy to read. This new look is NOT!

When you publish a page, the little window that pops up in the middle of the screen used to have a choice to take you directly back to the main builder page. Now that feature is not in that window, and is an extra step at the top of the page. That is not easier to navigate. When we first log into the builder, it should go directly to the main site builder page where we make a selection of a page to edit. But it goes to the website home page instead.

The problem with keeping a link opening in a new window, is still a problem, but now it is worse. I can’t have a link and a separate photo with the same link to open in a new window. One opens a new window, the other does not. If I fix the one that doesn’t, then the other won’t open in new window. If I fix that one, then the other one is bad again.

I prefer the old look. It was easier to see and navigate. And I could fix the open in new window problems, but not now. This is not an improvement. You should have left the old program on and fixed the few commands like I suggested and got jumped on for. I’m paying you $100 a year and you just made things worse.

Thank U so much for the innovations. This is indeed the gift of the year to us.

There are some website editing and publishing problems to be solved

Well;
after foolishly posting about a problem with the apps bar not appearing, I read some of the fixes and went ahead and cleared my browser cache, and more importantly, downloaded the latest Firefox. Works beautifully, looks good, just like building a website on your website. thanks, Pat

Nice change but – I use drop down menus. I’d like to be able to deignate a page as just a menu header on the page list so that if a user clicks on the header nothing happens (no url). I and others have been requesting this fo a long time. Right now, I have to put a message on that page telling the user to make another selection which is not elegant at all!

I wonder how long will it take to resolve all the problems? I couldn’t edit any of my pages. I hope things will be perfect before 2011.

I just wanted to say that I really love the new makeover! It is a lot easier to manage and update my website now!

I like reading about all the updates that webs.com makes. I have been with webs.com for a few years and have never had a problem with the services. Keep up the good work guys.

I have 3 sites and I cannot edit them now. There is no way of starting new content on new pages. And I can’t add content or change fonts etc on old pages! Is this a glitch that will be fixed soon? Thank you. June.

hi, i don’t really like that the space at the top of the editing pages is taken up by the huge box at the top of the screen, it was much easier to edit my site when i had more room to view it, not complaining, im thankful for an opportunity just to have a free site. (Not sure if anyone has already posted this issue or not) I am also having the same editing problems as the others mentioned. Thanks, Henry

I like some parts of the new design and know you guys work hard to get it all just right. Just wanted to say I liked it better before when I could see more of my site when editing. Where as now there is a big part of the screen being taken up by the huge top tool bar(?) I can only see a very small portion of my site, which makes it more difficult to edit. Im also having problems editing text boxes and pictures, it wont let me center any text, I can’t even click on the center box anymore.

…WOW!!!
..so NICE!!!

the new look is kinda nice but some of the background categories are gone and replaced and it doesn’t work well and by it i mean the backgrounds.

I don’t like the new look!! I can’t add content box in Google Chrome!! Only in Internet Explorer or Safari!!! Please correct this Bug!

Luca.

I cant change the background of my homepage.
If i change the background all the pages are changing in the background i want except for the homepage that on keeps on using an Old background.

Excellent changes have made a great deal of difference to the way I Control and Run my site …….
Keep up the good work very well done to all involved

Hai
this is realy great to be the part of this sit
pleas have a spell check opction
thank you!

wow! nice page webs

Awesome! Visit my site!

sir

i willbe helpless beacause i dont know html language

i hasbeen upgrade of my website in html

how i can edit and manage that site

plz help me ?

In the main, problems caused by new design have been resolved – especially footer bar appearing across page – thanks to your team for working on it. Since following instructions by other user to paste text to Notebook and then copy and paste from that to website, my problems with text also seem resolved. The design was great anyway and so flexible so my appreciation to you all. Ita

I put my site up at the end of December, and I love it. It is easier to use than any other site I have ever tried! I dont’ think I noticed any changes, I must have had the new innovations from the beginning, it is great!
Thank you for such a great service!

This is very good web . I like it.

Enjoying the site building. Thanks a lot.

this is the greatest thing that have happened on the internet. the new look makes the website easy and quality usage. thousnd thanks to the administrators.

Have you added any way to change the colors of individual event titles on a given day on the calendar? Or be able to highlight them? Something to set each event apart? It’s frustrating for all events/items in a day to all look the same.

hi, nice design i really like it. this page has been helping me to ease my estudents their leraning.but i do not know why some o them still can not log in once they have already signed up.By the way, I do not know how to up load PDF documents to the page. I´d really apreciate your help. thanks
