Seems smooth, haven't noticed any bugs yet.

I prefer the old site, but like the rest will get used to the new one.

They should push the featured auctions and domains above the fold, instead of the lady up there.

yeah...it kinda looks "namejet-ish" to me

I think the GreatDomains/Premium auction should have a link on the front page

**Domain Jedi** · 12-07-2009, 10:42 AM

My only concern is that the active auctions aren’t going to receive as much exposure.

The bottom of the home page says ‘Top domains’ however, it doesn’t mention that the ‘more’ link takes you to the active auction section.

I currently have ComputerSpeakers.com up for auction and am nervous about auction traffic dropping substantially.

This is the same direction Afternic went and it blows. It's like taking the Wall Street Journal and putting Alan Greenspan's picture on the front page every day while posting cooking articles in the middle of the stock prices.

I fully agree - most people won't scroll down to see that so the people who paid for it won't be getrting their money's worth.

Hate it... sure it looks nice for a minute, but it is like they didn't even think about the layout. You have top domains and featured auctions at the bottom now, the colors for that make it blend very well and not even noticeable. I have a feeling a lot of domains in these listings aren't going to get the exposure they are paying for.

Just another sedo mistake and none of our concerns will be acknowledged... /rant

Hm - problems in Firefx AND can not login, tried now "forgot password" 3-times - does not work, I do not understand such idiotic moves - change something people are used to and works for something new, same functionality but does no work...

**stuff** · 12-07-2009, 11:19 AM

looks like above can`t update stats either from sedo

**denny007** · 12-07-2009, 11:20 AM

OK now found out what idiots they are - before I had 17-digit password, which stopped working, I was changing it to also long password, it shown like it is working but it was not. So now, because in the past I met such problems by another such morons, I chosen 8-digit password and it works. So not unly is ugly, does not work well in Firefox and is ugly, it is now even less secure. Programmed by someone sniffing glue...

**Stian** · 12-07-2009, 11:27 AM

Only 5 domains are showing in the "Featured Domains" spot opposed to 10-15 (don't remember exact number) in the past. That really sucks. Also, there's nothing that indicates that these domains are in an auction (like ending time), unless you click any of the links.

Other than that, I like the design. The old sedo design sure looked outdated, but they really need to front auctions ending soon much, much more, as that's what sedo's all about.

On the positive side once you can find the market place it is still intact. The live updates are a nice touch.

I'll be changing my bookmark from home page to market place:

ahha, now this should be the home page and getting started should be a optional link.
