Hey bulgers, you may have noticed the new look on the profile page. The goal of this was to make the usage on a mobile phone easier. No more scrolling all the way down to read details about the profile owner. You can leave feedback and suggestions in this thread! Cheers 💪

I'd agree with you if the top section is very long. but it isn't, it's even expandable and doesn't take too much space. it especially will help new users to understand the site quicker and find their way around. plus, over 50% of Spandex Party users are on mobile phones.

I like the revamped Feed page, but the new Profile page feels like a downgrade to me (I thought the website was glitching at first!). I understand the need to make the page easier to read on phones, but on both version (mobile/desktop) I find it less welcoming, with stats coming before the pics. And the "show more" option makes the page less readable. Maybe there is a way to condense all those stats/info so that they take less space? (= no "show more" button needed + pics visible higher in the page). There a big empty space between the field name ("BodyType") and the corresponding field stats ("Defined"), for instance...

thank you for the constructive feedback! so you feel like the stats aren't adding to the welcomeness? I get it, that some of the row items aren't filled, but still displayed to keep the consistency. but this isn't strongly necessary, really. is this going in the improvement direction you mean?

I think it's problematic if the profile is very full. The first window is easy to read, the second less so, and if the next one has more text, it looks chaotic. I have to admit that I personally don't like it, going to the right, then opening it, going down... but I understand the change and maybe it's just that it's new and you have to get used to it. I don't want to criticize it, especially after it took some work. Just mention one user's perspective out of many.

Yes, I think that what matters for people are pics, way more than stats, so starting the page with labels and, potentially, empty fields, is not really welcoming. A solution could be to make the profile pic much bigger, to use half of the page on the left side, with the stats displayed next to it on the right, in a more condensed fashion. So that one sees at least one pic when opening a profile page.

To also bring something to help and not just criticize... As for the fact that there is a lot of data, maybe some of it could be put together? For example, height and body type can be put together.. So, just give e.g. Body type and in the menu you can choose e.g. Tall, Skinny. The same dick+cut, out+orientation. Maybe it would help? I admit that I like information because I can learn something about a person, who they are, what their hobbies are, what they would like, etc... But I understand that everyone prefers something different and it is difficult for the Admin to find a result.

Potentially we could meet somewhere in the middle with all of these suggestions. we can have basic basic info. IE: age and physical info up top.(this can be debated as to what to include up top.) Then the about and more detailed explanations below the pics. Knowing the age of the person I’m interacting with is really important for me.

I like this idea! It could be very good solution!

I like that and it makes sense. although I'd like not to have information blocks after the pics somehow. I think it would feel hidden. I'll iterate on this some further, stay tuned!

The info blocks to do take up a lot of screen space but I also agree they would be lost below the photos. Maybe try add the profile cover pic to the header and the info could overlay that.

what's your guys' feelings about a quick facts area, that holds up to 6 items (if available)? and if there is more info, e.g. "How I got into Spandex", it will be accessible through the "more" link or a about tab? desktop mobile

That’s a nice design. Simple yet give your the important info right up front.

I think that updated design looks great! A condensed facts area with up to 6 items is a good compromise.

I deployed a new iteration of the profile page. it still focuses on better usability for mobile phone users. but now there are more key informations visible: - bigger profile pic - age added behind username - up to 6 quick facts¹ (on mobile horizontally scrollabe) - expandable full facts ¹) I rearranged them how I think most people might be interested in. feel free to share your view on the quick facts! thanks guys for all the feedback already!
