the home page looks cluttered for a free user. Idk about all phones but on my page there are boxes around everything.. In one box there is 10 new forum topics.. It seems like a list maybe the 5 was better. I love the prem ad and cant wait to get prem again but maybe make it slightly smaller?? My next thing whats the box for changing where you are for? Does that effect anything? I wonder cause location is in profile edit.. I think on top of those ads that are naturally there its beggining to look slightly cluttered (it may just be me :/) any one else got opinion?

The boxes around everything you are referring to were added to give the Home screen some "structure" by grouping each set of features. If most of you think they do more harm than good, I can easily remove them, so please do speak up, it's not a problem. Regarding the Forum posts on the Home screen, I doubled it to 5 to try to increase the activity in the Forums. Again, if most of you feel that displaying 10 posts on the Home screen is too much, let me know and I'll reduce them back to 5. This kind of feedback is important to ensure everyone has a positive user experience. As for the Premium Member Ads in yellow, they're the same size as the standard individual thumbnail result in search results, so I don't know if I would want to make them smaller than that. Plus, they're meant to be a size you can't ignore to ensure the Premium members get the additional exposure they are paying for. :)

My next thing whats the box for changing where you are for? Does that effect anything? I wonder cause location is in profile edit..
Actually, that Current Location is completely different to your Profile's Location. Your Profile Location is meant to be your "permanent" location (e.g. where you live). Your Current Location is meant to be where you are right now (e.g. the address of your work, gym, friend's house, shopping mall, etc.). Once you set your Current Location, you will be able to use the "Near Me Now" search feature to find users near you within a 10 mile radius of your current location. What's cool about this feature is that it allows you to connect with people that are close to where you happen to be physically right now, so if you hit it off, you can just meet up for coffee or something right there and then at a local place close to where you are. Of course, for your safety, we never actually share your actual physical location with anyone, only that you are within a 10 mile radius of them.

I think you're referring to the logged-out Dating.mobi homepage, whereas Nichole is referring to the logged-in Home screen. I'll address the homepage thread you're referring to in just a sec.

the forum list in my opinion looked better as the 5. Just enough to see the new but not enough to look cluttered. Prem ads there neat i agree still easy to pass by without a thought. Thanks for explaining to current location i was unaware of what it was actually for.. Thank for addressing the concerns :)
