The new layout is so inconvenient
If someone can prove that my IE or plugin or something is broken........I will be very happy...

so say about that layout.......

the most inconvenient part is searching........the classes label(TF2) are missing.....so I only have 2 options to fill the H/W blanks:search the item or scroll to find out....................but ,guys...English is not my mother tongue...I can hardly remember the items in Eng.....well........

just scroll and scroll.........

I agree as far as the layout goes. I don't normally keep my inventory sorted by class, and most of the time when creating a trade, I sell items for a particular class. Having to type out the name for each individual item is inconvinient. Perhaps add an option in settings to toggle the layout style?

I agree I can't remember the names of all the items especially the newer ones and it makes it a pain to search for them.

Okay, here's how it is. People were constantly complaining that "the items list is too long", so I encapsulated it in a box to fix that. Now they're complaining that they want the full item list back.

In making this change, I removed the class selection bar and relocated the "Filter..." field. Now, there is a great reason for doing this; you can search for an item name, or alternatively you can type in a class name and it'll do the same thing that the class filter used to do. Go ahead, try it. Type "scout" and you'll only see scout items. Genius, right?

I won't be changing the update back to the old version, so people need to stop asking. This isn't aimed at OP directly, but more at everyone that opposes change (reminds me of every single Facebook update to be honest). I'll constantly be tweaking stuff, and I take your opinions into consideration when doing so.
This needs..................more dots.................

Speaking of Sneeza's genuis plan for the search field. Most people just don't realize that, this should be announced on the site so everyone knows.

Sorry, but this is a totally wrong approach and sorry this is not tweaking.

Previously searching could be done in 4 clicks: Search->Class->Item->Search
Now instead of clicking I have to type class name -> very inconvenient. I can enter tf2outpost a couple of dozens times within one hour - and each time i have to type class name/items name before I can search? This is absolutely awful, not to say more.

Replacing clicks with typing = bad idea
I don't think I will use outpost as much as I used to - type EACH time I enter the site - ridiculous.

This.
And you now also have to select every single square manually when making a wishlist or searching. I.e. you can't just click the key icon 6 times, you now have to do twice more clicks.
What's next? Will we have to type "create trade" or "post comment" instead of just pressing a button in the nearest future?

Like my post in the suggestions, Outpost should employ custom settings and protocals. I like the extra click because I tend to change the item quality a lot so I don't really have to do the extra click you're doing, before this was 2 more clicks.

Sneeza takes his own volunteer time to make this site and improve on it. Im sure many people made this suggestion for him to change it. The site cannot be exactly how every person wants it to be. Try not to complain so much about something he already spent a lot of time to implement. If you dont like how it is, feel free to use another site. No one is forcing you to use outpost.

Heh, I'm actually using another site most of the time.
But saying that "The site cannot be exactly how EVERY person wants it to be." is still just silly.
And by the way. How much profit do you think he gets from donations?
So yeah, that could be a full-time job.
