Yeah, coincidentally i went to their site earlier on today to check out prices for a friend. I gotta say i hate their new site.
It's very user-unfriendly.

I ended up leaving it without getting the info i wanted because i didn't have time to make sense of it.

Shrek?! :D

I think that the new identity is wanted to be more "noob user"-friendly, but I for one think that the old one is much stronger.

Anyhow, it could be worst, it's not that bad :)

i agree, took me longer than it should to find the products page which is surely something they want people to very easily find? weird.

does anyone have a wacom? i have a A5 sized Graphire4 was just wondering if anyone else had it and was having the same problems with the scroll button as I am :)

Here's another thing i just noticed. On their site, if you skip the intro animation thing, the url you get redirected to is the ip of the server rather than a domain name.

I timed myself on the site. Because i was determined this time i kept looking for what i wanted, a price for a graphire. I spent over 2 minutes on the site before giving up, again.

Someone should tell them they've got useability issues.

Hmm, dun't really know what to say about the logo. Looks kinda kinky, not really my style. I like changes, not sure I prefer changes in logos, especially for big brands. Their new site is terrible, I agree.
