Late to the party.

I would like to see the various Walls of Text under spoilers. If you care to read the titled spoiler, just click on it. That would bring the clutter down immensely. JMHO.
I like the notice board.
I think CW should have a link. Right now you have 11 icons. One more would make it even. It can take you to the Custom Wearable home page.
I would like to see the Themed Items group by sets. By price. Low to high.
Nice improvements. Thank you.

@Ark - Thank you for pointing that out! I just read the names of the machines, and never realized that one had collection items. For some reason I just thought its items were... Luminaire- related...
The mutant creature told me it is closed, I rely on library computer so I reckon Monday for meh.
@fairestmoss Before the cash shop closed for re-organising, it said the black friday sale will last until December 4. I'm pretty sure subeta will give us time into December to make up for the time. n_n
@Amber So when are the BF sales, now? They were supposed to end on the 30th, I remember that, but at this rate I'm starting to worry I'm going to miss it entirely.
Idk it this was asked or not but....
Where is the purchase history link for the cash shop?
I need to check something :)

This is great! And I seem to be one of the few who doesn't think the front/homepage looks too cluttered :P
I like the welcome page. Sure it has a lot of information but I have to hunt down news posts for specific cs stuff just to refresh my memory on the items or when what retires etc. so this is a welcome change.
I will have to get used to the general increase in white backdrops BUT I feel like the cash shop now feels more like any other (seasonal/event) shop on subeta and therefore feels more integrated into the site. The old one also was nice but it was off-center and totally different. This feels easier to navigate.
I know we necessarily didn't "need" a revamp of the old cs but an improvement is welcome for me and who knows what difficult code the old one had that I wasn't aware of so thanks, staff! :3 Looking forward to BF more now!

Adding stuff to cart that doesn't refresh whole freaking page and make me lose the spot I was at - that's all I needed, thank you.
Ive already blocked the image of whatever the robots name is.
Anyway....is the sale active yet? or can I just not see/find the past BC challengers

Hmm. Am I the only one thinking there should be a Black Friday chance machine that gives older (random) collection items for, say, 100-150 CSC? Since collections aren't included in the sale, and many CSC items on my wishlist are multi-multi- million SP collection items. I'd totally throw cash at randomness chances of getting that stuff.
I think the shopping cart could omit the refresh step. Is there a way to make it calculate the total automatically like when we adjust stats in the battle exp page? Or at least have the more intuitive "Update Cart" button back again?
It looks very cluttered which makes it confusing and kinda messy appearing. Just glad I don't use the CS very much.
Just going to say that I LIKE THE NEWS SECTION! I am constantly hunting down old news posts concerning monthly collections or other posts relating to the cash shop that get buried under all of the other daily news posts. I like having a convenient place to view it all and feel that it’s pretty well organized on the homepage of the cash shop now.
I think the news needs to be left on the news page. It serves no purpose on the cash shop page and just adds a lot of clutter... There should be upcoming items or something else there pertaining to the cash shop. I just think it being released now with all the site issues was not exactly the right time. Esp since we've had to wait extra time for Black Friday. Otherwise its nice enough so thanks for the work that went into it. :)
I was wondering if it would be possible to get a tab for CSC Cards? I'm always searching almost every tab to find them since I don't automatically think of "items" but rather it's a form of cash, like a prepaid credit card. I like the new shopkeeper, although I might do basic shopkeeper & a separate tab for news to help reduce cluter.
Releasing this right before Black Friday feels a bit like we just got guinea pigged into being an involuntary stress test... and I'm honestly not sure if that being the thought behind it or it being an oversight is worse.
Overall I'm curious what this revamp added? It doesn't seem to have done as much as I expected/it was talked up about on the front end. Hopefully it made some major changes/improvements on the back end? Otherwise it's fine but seems pretty minor. /shrug. Not really a complaint just an observation.
- 'n'thing that the front page is cluttered and not that useful. A welcome message from the NPC and and some kind of 'current/upcoming sales' banner would serve the same purpose. Especially since all that is empty most of the year. Maybe 'newest releases' in a /small/ box underneath?
- The buy CSC page has no improvements over the old Cash Shop, and really the semi-hidden 'click here to use Stripe' is a downgrade. It's all awkward. The PayPal drop down after you pick a button loads slowly and non-obviously too (and I have a pretty good connection).
- The GA page is eh. Having to scroll for the only thing you're there for is silly (and I have a largeish monitor/resolution) but reemphasizing GA perks is probably worthwhile. Maybe a drop down? Be even better if it could tell you haven't been to the page before and be open by default only then.
- Items is fine. Rather see cards on the header bar personally. Dislike 'choose' as a tab ('choose 1' isn't great but is better). The difference between what's in "clothing' and 'themed sets' seems to be beyond arbitrary, but pretty sure that was true of the old Cash Shop too. I know 'collection' is what they're called and the tabs are small, but to someone who doesn't know it looks like 'themed sets' again. Maybe 'monthly collections' with a line break?
- Boutique is good
- Chance is good - the themed items machine could make it clearer that it's older/CS retired themed items but again that was true of the old Cash Shop too. Putting a back button higher up on the page would be nice for the bigger machines. Also making the back button go back to the Chance page (or making them all consistently go back to the home page on other pages... either really but personally the first is prob preferable).
- Bonus Items page is getting really long, probably eventually needs some sorting. Maybe by year?
- Trunks and Neela are fine.
- Billboards are fine (the (Ads) is a tiny bit awkward since none of the other 'Subeta term' things have that but w/e). Can we have a way to delete our old Billboards though? Especially since if they're old enough the image isn't even saved/shown anymore?
- Cart's fine.
- I know CWs are separate on the drop down now but a link somewhere might be nice. Newer players/if you want to possibly get buyers who were 'just browsing' and all that...

I would say it looks nice, but the "news" page can stay off the front page of the cash shop. I feel like most of us start off in the news page so to see a repeat of what we've already seen is redundant. And makes it look/feel cluttered. Keep the front page of the Cash shop clean and minimal. But that's just my two cents.
I feel like the main page is too busy? It's all very neat and organized now but the main page is just HAVE SOME WORDS
@LadyMeridius Yes, you can do it on this page, but it will only search items currently available for purchase in the CW Shops.
But also... I am working on a revamped Item Directory that will allow you to search for all CWs by layer (and other info) :)

Hmmm is there a way to view all or browse by layer for CW? There's so much there that I wouldn't know where to start with a search engine
I have to agree that the home page is extremely crowded looking. There's so much information presented in several boxes it's a little overwhelming.
@Amber That's what I wanted to hear, LOL. I know you guys work super hard, but it also drives everyone nuts when major changes happen right as something big starts and the site blows up! :)
I'm not going to love the missing cart, and I don't love the error messages I get in other shops when I try to right-click to buy because, for instance, I want enough copies of a book for my 4 bookworms to read (2 SAI, 2 Subeta Tribune ok? you know the requirements lol!). But I'll live if it cuts down on lag because lag is half the reason why I do these things.

Never mind, ignore my question about the cart...I didn't see the note in the topic about how there's no option yet in the Boutiques
How come we can't add things to our cart? There's only an option to buy them straight off....also, all the items I had in my cart before this revamp are gone. Not too pleased about that :/
I have to admit the cash shop looks more confusing than how it was before. Not sure I like the new update. Just my opinion.
