Since yesterday or so, all of a sudden the top part of my screen looks different than before.
It is a different design, different color scheme, "Thank you for making ProZ.com possible" under the logo - what is going on?

If I go to Member activities -> Certified Pro Network, the resulting screen is quite messed up:

The tabs are broken, my name at the top is duplicated, etc.
Did something get messed up with the stylesheets?

I'd been thinking of asking too.Was the Ideas tab there before, BTW? Anyway, there's blue (cobalt/royal) in various places near the top of the page, and black, and not sure why. Is it a gradual colour makeover? Hope not. Were those chess pieces always there?

I use Chrome, and am not experiencing any layout problems, but I certainly agree with the above comments about the terrible color scheme. Not fond of the ProZ colors in general, and these new design elements are definitely not helping, but I just try to ignore it. The website design is not what I've been paying membership dues for since 2005! Luckily, lol.

I actually like it! and I'm not one to praise Proz willy-nilly, but it might just be because I really dislike the "normal" banner colours so much.
My tabs are also ok, and I use IE10.
@Rachel
By the way - the "ideas" tab has been there for a while but it is quite snugly hidden away there in the corner, I didn't notice it till it was literally pointed out to me.

I see, Ty, I thought it might have been but only noticed it because the chess piece next to it is now blue.
I don't mind the usual Proz colours, as at least they go together, but the blue is very discordant against them.

The "Ideas" tab, previously highlighted, is now floating, to reveal the queen's bottom.
And what's that chess game? Is it intended as a reminder of those slick outsourcers and their NDAs crammed with pitfalls?
I hope it is just a partial test intended for a complete redesign. ▲ Collapse

My first thought was that somebody had died and I expected/feared some kind of notice just below.
Fortunately it seems not to be the case.
As for chess and blue queens, I assume it just fills the right side of the banner.
But I'd have liked a sailboat. Or a Hubble shot. Should I submit a quick poll?

| Still messed up | Jun 6, 2013 |
The layout of all Proz.com pages has been messed up for the last couple of days and this continues for me. I'm using Safari as my browser, which I have done for the last five years.
