This new site rocks! I use Allakhazam daily, this is a much better looking site than before. Good job to all those responsible for the upgrade, and thank you as well :)

I don't like it. It is not as simple to find things, the font is harder to read and the base color of vomit is not appealing. The site is definately not as convenient to use as it was before and it is not visually as freindly. Things are no cross linked as well as they were. I can not seem to navigate as easily from item to what drops it to where it drops to what else that beast might drop etc. The new site looks like it is much easier for mindless maintenance at the expense of useful functionality.

I look at Bandit pants of .... and I can not find the stats for the different types of pants. I used to be able to search for items with stats at levels adn find th eitems with the stats this is not a good change if I can no longer search for items and compare to see what is best for my characters. This used to be a smart site for searching for things. Now it seems to have the same dead ends that Thottbott has. I understood the gaps in information that were here before, but now it seems to resolve those gaps the information that was here has been removed. Wowwiki at least gives a table of random enchantments the item might have.

The changes are definately a good way to encourage people to go elsewhere to find what they are looking for.

Yes, the contrast is terribad, but the baby-diaper brown and canary yellow was not any better. These colors are a side-grade...

This site has not had stats for each type of "Of the..." gear for a while.

Have you tried adding filters to your search?

have you uploaded your character info? They actually increased the item comparison features. This is what is displayed after you upload either your WoWreader data or import your profile from the armory:

Then suggest that they include that info here instead of crying. They have been making tons of changes in the past week based on user feedback. Why not make constructive criticisms instead of QQing.

I like the new design =), but you should change WoWReader to be able to get the characters correctly like Kagomè and Kagomé and not just one of them replacing the other :/

Click on the AH pricing link and you'll see all the random enchants as well as their pricing info on the AH.

Would there be a possibility of adding a drop-down menu for those random enchants so they could be compared to the current gear of our pinned character?

I was toying with that very idea last night. I'm trying to find time to look into it.
