Hello there people, It looks like I'll be stuck with deviantart for now, so gotta deal with it. But that's besides the point. I recently made a comic for Merryweather and his youtube channel. It's really cool that he has voice actors speaking japanese, it really gives a fascinating impression. You can see the comic here, in case I got it right... <da:embed profile="youtube" id="VZ9ojLh0QXQ"/> Enjoy! Update 1: Okay, it looks I didn't get it right, apparently that's for the old deviantart, so here is a link for now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ9ojLh0QXQ (It looks like the official Eclipse guide is either outdated or I'm just too old to understand these "better user interfaces"). Update2: Okay so there is this little (+)sign which appears and disappears depending on what you do, makes perfectly sense to hide essential tools when you are in edit mode... but now it works :P

So... the old user interface is finally gone and the new Eclipse UI takes its place. Even if I knew this day was coming, it still felt like a whiplash straight at the face. Even though I'm not necessarily against change and new things and I understand that the age of mobile devices has brought the challenge of making one UI that fits all devices, this is just terrible. For a long time, deviantART has been pretty much the only site with an UI that makes sense and is actually functional. Even after the new brand update it was still pretty much the same. But this... this is just throwing away all the good old wisdom about good design and functionality.
