What Do You Think Of The New HBD Design? Topic

Is 'send invitations' link broken or am I missing something?

That page is kind of hard to find, for one thing (which is a pain when you need to extend the privacy deadline, as well), but when I click the link to send an invitation it just takes me back to the View Open Worlds/View Private Worlds page.
There's a link on the front page of the world for the commish to send invites.    The one on the private world page isn't working.

But you have to approve from the private world page.   Odd set-up.

I'm with keeid. I like most of the update, but DETEST the small text and lack of contract in the box scores. It makes reading play-by-play very difficult.
These changes won't drive me away from HBD, but we've had one owner who asked to be replaced, and another who is contemplating leaving the game. 
It's absolutely brutal. I have sent my concerns to support which they were very quick to respond to but I think this might be it for me. I never thought this day would come, especially this soon, but after forcing myself to spend just a few minutes trying to set my lineup and rotation for a new season, I realized just how much I dislike the new look. I think it is painful to look at and has forced me to have no interest in spending time on this site. It's unfortunate. I think I will give it 1 more season and hope I get used to it but hate that I have to force myself to do something that I used to enjoy so much.

Out of curiosity, is there anyone that loves the new look? I don't think the look was anywhere near an issue before and they went out to fix maybe the only part of the game that didn't need much touching. Oh well.

More power to all of you that don't mind it, I am certainly jealous!

When on the World Office page I am not seeing any kind of quick reference to a trade or trade chat.  Is that the case?   If so, unless someone specifically checks for trades you could go a very long time before someone even notices an offer or responds.  Not liking that at all if that is true.  I have sent out some trade offers but have not had any come in yet since the update, maybe there is something in place but not sure.

They'll show up as notifications at the top of the screen, just above "Game Center".

I got my 1st trade chat response today and you are correct it did show up at the top of the page with a red box next to it.  Thanks!

Well it looks like I'm in the super minority here but I really, really like the new update. It's soooo much easier to navigate on my phone. I can change my lineups and rotation super quick, the pages load a lot better, the navigation is simple and common sense.... oh, and I just like the new look in general. No more having to zoom in and out, in and out on my phone. Setting up my draft board was about 1000% times easier, too. On the PC, I like how the players' faces show up on the lineup and pitching staff. I think it's just cool. A lot I really like about the update.

Another issue I've encountered: It doesn't seem like you can assign players to your ML squad during the offseason until you reach 20 men. (I'm taking over a new franchise that had a lot of dead weight I did not re-sign or take through arbitration)

Did they fix the pitcher being able to bat anywhere but ninth?  I didn't see it in the build updates.
