The New (Early 2009) U.S.A. MAC Site

I apologize if there is already a thread on this topic, but I couldn't locate one, so here goes:

How does everyone feel about the revamped U.S.A. MAC site?
I am not a fan of it.
In fact, it may actually dampen my MAC spending, which is not necessarily a bad thing.
This may be due to my [slow] internet connection, but for me it takes foreeeever to do anything on the site.

Methinks my days of quickly "dashing off an order" to MAC are over ...

And, ugh, those tiny tiny squares that represent lipstick and eyeshadow shades!
You have to just keep touching your cursor to ones that look like they might be the color you want until you just happen to land on the right one!
Again, I say:

Maybe I'm just not used to it ...

The tiny color squares are my big pet peeve. I keep going back to my Macy's MAC page to see the colors the old way.

ug i hate it

Hate. It.

I'm not one to hate change just because it's new or different, but this redesign is a flop. It is horrible.

Cool!

I haven't gotten that far yet!
On the subject of the new site's color "swatches," I am sooo glad that there's Specktra!

I can look at Specktra to figure out what I want, then go to that annoying site to buy it.

I've seriously thought about going to the Canadian site when a new collection comes out, just to see what everything looks like, then taking a deep breath and going to the U.S. site to buy.
You can tell how much my dislike of the U.S. site is actually going to dampen my MAC spending, after all ...

That's what I suspected, but I couldn't find it before I started this one, which the moderators should feel free to remove if they want.

I have already merged the two threads.

I like the new site .. I think it takes some getting used too but it's definitely an upgrade

I also like the videos that the MAC artist have made and they have on the site.. two thumbs up!

 

[MAC_Whore]

I am noticing a few changes on the site. It looks like they are taking some of the feedback into account.

Re: I hate the new website design

The only thing I like are the new artist's videos.

Even the gals that I talked with at cs @MAC said they hate it. Soooo, after soooooooo many complaints why not change it back please....keep your graphics, but go back to the user-friendly layout.

Re: I hate the new website design

^^ I agree, the artist videos are brilliant. But the amount of Flash used in the new site is obnoxious. Why don't they have a Flash and standard HTML version? Seems strange.

Re: I hate the new website design

ITA. I dread the day when I have to order from the website again **thinking HK collection** Have postponed getting a couple of the brushes twice already because everytime I go to the website, the page just loads soooooo slowly. MAC should listen to us consumers on this. I'm at the point where I may have to start going to the counters again to get my fix. It's just more time-efficient for me to order late at night or when I'm on break at school than driving to the store. MAC should just make it simple & user-friendly. Heck, just bring back the old page if they must and scrap this new page until something easier to navigate comes along.

Re: I hate the new website design

I visted the new MAC Website for the first time today, and I have to say that I agree with you. It's really difficult to read and navigation is challenging and not intuitive at all.

I also have written to MAC to express my opinion of the new website.

What a disappointment.

Re: I hate the new website design
