Something is different here... Oh! Right, welcome to the new Subeta! We have worked very hard over the past few months to create a new layout that is easier for everyone to browse.


Here are some of the biggest changes that we've made with the new layout:


  • The layout is now fluid in width, which means that it will resize itself depending on the size of your browser window. This lets us make things around the site fit the entire screen, and not feel so cramped.
  • Widgets! These are the boxes on the left side of your screen. You can change the ones that are shown here. There are some really cool ones like showing your friend feed, the amount of quests you've done for the day, and more! They can also be dragged and moved around the sidebar, or hidden.
  • Dashboard / Events: The dashboard is where the widgets live, and the events pane is where your events will live! You can change your preferences here, to how you would like the dashboard to act. We suggest setting it to smart so that you are notified when you have new events!
  • Dropdowns, which means that we don't have to use up the entire sidebar for the navigation. We've reorginized the links to make a little more sense, and allow you to move around the site easier.



You may have noticed that your CustomCSS and your Pet Profiles have been cleared. They generally aren't compatible with the new layout, but we did save your coding and you can find it here! Feel free to copy it and paste it back into your CustomCSS/Pet Profiles, just be warned that everything might not work the same!


You can leave your feedback for the new layout here. We will be making changes to the new layout as we see problems (or things that should be changed).


Thank you for sticking with us and remaining loyal to Subeta, we really appreciate it and have worked really hard to make this layout as easy to use as we could. If you have any problems, please report them here, so that we can fix them quickly.

Okay, I thought the fitting screen was nice, but its too big and takes too long to load. This is more of me reporting a problem rather then just complaining. It is nice, but it takes too long to load and it's freezing up my computer. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
my god this layout is terrible. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> I have a huge screen and having it fill up like this is an eye sore. And I hate the drop downs. They're crap. They're always crap on every site. :| I hate having my alerts on the left.
FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKED THE SIDE ACCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there's a navigation widget under the new side widgets... that'll give you back your side access :]
i think some people really need to explore the widgets, because there's a widget that puts navigation on the side of the screen. :|
Is the site majorly misaligned for anyone else? o_O
@God_of_Milk has a good point---
It /is/ much more well done than the new Neopets layout.. I'm not complaining, i like it fine, you all did a great job ^-^
it just gives me an unnerved side effect, out of habbit, lol. I don't think Keith would do that though. .-.
Damn drop downs. I hate them, just like neo, slow and confusing. The rest of it I like though, the color scheme is nice and the screen fits nicely.
Well, I'll have to get used to it. But okay. I almost pissed my pants when I saw it. I was like WHAT HAPPENED HOLY GOD NO. I'm over it now.^^
I feel very confused and lost with this new layout and feel that its much like the Neopets one.

I don't like accessing things from the bar at the top. Could I have mine back on the side like before. Also because you only see the main headings, I feel like I can access far less of the site than before.
Just fantastic <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
it will take some getting used to but.. ah well change is never that bad of a thing
Wow it only took me about two hours to get used to this =D
I like both of the layouts. I might still be a little biased right now considering I could navigate the old one better but this is good.
Still the same old slow Subeta hugs I still love you x3

Kudos to Keith and staff~ Thank you for listening to the players and putting up with our criticism that, lots of the time, isn't constructive <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy_sweatdrop.gif" border="0" />
You still reign supreme over Neo!
I like it, gives it a bit more class. The only thing I dont like is the lack of a new news alert like the little dotted box on the old layout. I would love to have a widget or something that will alert me when there is new news
could you make the avatar go on the side bar or something.
It's looks great, yes but the lag on my computer (and many others, I'm sure) is ridiculous.
I'd much rather have the older version or even a..less heavy version of this one. It's taken 3 minutes just to load this page and my computer is usually /extremely/ fast.
The news box jumps to the right and back repeatedly on my browser and screen resolution as well. I am currently using FF3 with a resolution of 1280x1024.
Overall its definitely pleasant on the eyes for the most part (there are a few bugs on my computer) but its far to heavy and takes quite a while to load. While I appreciate the fact that you've decided to update the site, I do wish that it were a lot more user-friendly.

I personally like the old layout a lot better. I think this seems cluttered. Is there going to be an option to go back to the old layout?
the layout didn't really reminds me of neopets,
it's much more beautiful than the one in neopets I think,
but it's kinda confusing for me,
I think you guys should separate the game and the shops
they should be in different categories....

and the site is pretty slow though<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

i think this 'wardrobe' malfunction might be caused from all the business on the site.Cuz i have been have some problems as well.The people who made this new layout, YOU RULE!i absolutely love the way the site looks now because it is so spaced out now and i finally feel like i can breathe!But ya, you guys did a fantastic job, and i look forward to the other new updates you might make on something else!<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
This is awesome!!!
I come home from school, log on, and I was practically blown away.

This new layout is amazing! I love it!
I was gonna scream and shout, 'cause I don't like the drop-downs, but I was relieved to find the navigation widget and put it on my sideboard - it is much more user-friendly! The art is nice, too. I only have to change the resolution, so that an ugly dark stripe will disappear from the right side of the map XD I guess I can get used to the new Subeta <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" />
and here I thought it was slow/laggy on Windows. Even worse when im on my linux box =/
Amazing and I love maquerade lay -

uh one question, how do you get to the wardrobe?it doesnt really work when you click on the wardrobe section in personal.The screen just stays blank and you cant even look at the wardrobe.i was just wondering about this problem, because i cant even get into my wardrobe
You guys who are bashing this need to learn some manners. Constructive criticism is what's needed if you don't like it. "This layout sucks" is more rude than you could ever imagine. How would you like to work your ass of for something you think thousands of users would like, or at least agree upon (because so many of you guys throw out 'I want this!' or 'I don't want this!') and to have comments like that pop up? You guys need to learn some tact. If you don't like it, shut up or leave. I can't believe you people. I really think you should be suspended from this site for being so rude.
I appreciate you wanting to make things better for the site, but I have a 20" screen and this isn't exactly better.
Wow, you really outdid yourselves...site looks amazing!!
Gonna take a LOT of getting used to! XXD
could you make it so your avatar pic shows automatically above your username please? its fine if you dont... just a request <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I don't think there will ever be an option to give us the old layout but maybe someone out there with l33t webbing skills will make us a good mock layout with custom css? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

Ooh, YAY! I think it's about time Subeta got a new look <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> and I totally wasn't expecting it! snugs It's a nice surprise =D thanks!
I have been using this ever since Gold Accounts were allowed to test it c:
The site no longer loads on my phone or my hand held gaming device. Um ... yay?
k i figure out what Not to block. I needed to allow googleapis.com =(
I liked blocking that cause it wouldnt lag me as much. Same with all the other Java scripts. too much java is overkill
you ppl are blind or something if you think it looks like neopets cause of the topbar
I didn't like it. I like the old version better... I was already used to it! ;_;
Woah-- that wasn't supposed to happen. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

Anyway I much prefer the previous layout and hopefully there will be an option to opt out of this and back to the old? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> The main problem I have with it is the navigation and everything just seems so much bigger to me.
Have to say I was hella suprised when I logged on this morning and found... well, this. I know it is going to take AGES to get used to but holy. Fucking. Shit. This is awesome. Thank you subeta.
It'll take some getting used to, but I like it.
Hmmm...I think the new layout has potential to have a seasonal change. Like a special Morostide layout or a Firside Layout.
Okay, seeing as I've gotten 2 comments already, I feel I must make this known before ALL of my haters and fans mail/comment me in a panic.

@Tiann : Yes Tiann, I have! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> I like a lot of the new Halloween items, (even if do I bitch about how many they add in a week), I loved the Harvester Revamp, I liked the Tigrean revamps end result and I loved the Dragons revamp. (Just to name a few.) <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
BEAUTIFUL, my dears. ~
<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />

It's running smoother than the test site was, but it's still kinda laggy for me. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

Also, the navigation is a tad complicated. It was easier when it was more simple. :c

But otherwise, I love it. (:
Much needed update. And it's so sleek and sexy...

These comments are going to be fun to read. :'D
I really like this. That's all I have to say ~
WHOA. Heartattack!
The new layout is just gravy
I like the layout, cept the top with the welcome to subeta/glade area it seems very squished like its being cut off.
I prefer the older version, honestly. This one reminds me far too much of neopets. It's also a little harder to navigate, especially on older computers that don't like loading drop-down menus. If I tried to access this site on my crappy internet back home, I would never get past the front page unless I had every link bookmarked.

An option to use the old or new layout would be nice. But I could get used to the laggy neopetty one if I needed to. (I got used to Neo's layout after a year or so, so it wouldn't be too terrible to do the same thing here.)

So...nice work. I like the pictures and the colors, but I'm not a fan of the flow. I liked having everything as a clickable link that didn't require a drop-down menu. And having a sidebar is a little annoying, but hey, I did it with neopets so we can do it again over here.
It's lovely ... but it clashes utterly with all the blue around the site.
wow xD I almost had a heart attack when i saw this!

It's beautiful! I like how it's organized

But I know it will take some getting use to <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> especially since I don't like big changes, but this looks wonderful! One thing is it seems a bit slower xD But i still LOVE IT
It's okay...I'm nto a huge fan though <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
And it's really laggy.

I'm sorry but I really liked the old subeta and it was very easy to navigate. I have no idea where anything is now. I won't quit, but I wont enjoy subeta like I used to.
With my 1680 pixel screen width the site certainly looks different. That will take some getting used to, but I think I'll adjust to the change as a whole pretty fast. I already adore the earth tones of the (I presume) default colour scheme.
I had a double take |D This is BRILLIANT. Loving it!
Its lovely, but really, this makes my comp kinda laggy and the event tab changes reaallly slowly :C
