It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

Regarding the huge blank space under the forum pages, I've a hunch it may be deliberate. GOG's Z-ordering makes the footer appear in front of the navbar dropdowns if they overlap; on the shortest community wishlist pages, it's possible (in my browser viewport; YMMV) to open the Games dropdown menu and see the footer obscure the Linux Games item.

Of course, that could have been addressed through changing the Z-ordering...

Edit: another common request: uncollapse descriptions and lists of extras. http://www.gog.com/forum/general/new_gamecards_of_gog_the_description_does_not_need_to_be_collapsed

ChrisSD: Really? That's odd. I uploaded a stylish style to userstyles.org. Does this fix it on all pages?

I just tried it at work in a vanilla Firefox and it works. There is a subtle difference in the spacing of the notification between the new pages and the old pages. Added the fix to my Oh-my-GOG! script.

Thanks!

ChrisSZ: Library:
If you have all games hidden (or all except one), newly purchased games are not shown in the library. (old problem, before the design change already)
I don't want to hide allmost all my games to try this one but I thought about trying it with the movies. I had picked one of the free ones, so I hid it and picked the other one. The new movie appeared as expected.

Not adding it at the moment, then, unless someone can confirm either way.
Well, monday came and went by and the only thing I saw reported as fixed was the gift code display. Move that to fixed and added some of the complaints with the game page.
- Added the bug about the subforums for games not being added the list each user has marked in the Community tab.
- Someone added that changing password is disabled as a bug but that was changed before the new look. You need to logout and reset your password now. So is "broken by design", actually.
Has anyone noticed that the some of the screencaps on the movie card pages twitch?

For example:
http://www.gog.com/movie/indie_game_the_movie_special_edition

On this page, when I select the Super Meatboy image, or the dude sitting at the computer with a calendar behind him, the larger version of the image twitches. That is, it appears as if the image is being stretched vertically by one or two pixels, and then relaxes again, about twice per second. The image is always cropped to maintain the 600x338 dimensions, though.

I've noticed this on other movie car pages as well.

The last two screencaps on Occupy Everywhere twitch:
http://www.gog.com/movie/the_99_occupy_everywhere

As do the last two of the Cosplayer film:
http://www.gog.com/movie/my_other_me_a_film_about_cosplayers

Aha! It only seems to happen when the shiftable set of thumbnails is shifted to reveal the rightmost image. When I shift back to the leftmost image, the twitching stops. Curious.

Can someone else confirm this behavior?

Seriously?!? No other option?!? Is that considered as high level security measure or something?!?

Yep, and apparently no option to change your email either. But this one you can't reset via the login screen, can you now?

The email seems to be some weird consecuence of the changes or something and that's why is listed as a Major bug.

We could always ask to make the password change as easy as it was but it seems to me that they way it works now is intentional. :/

I could play games and ask you what you mean, but yeah, I see it too.
I'm using Firefox, Windows 7, what about you?

Firefox 31.0, Vista 64.

Thanks for not messing with me, I don't have the brain space at the moment.

I see it also with games like Caesar 3 and Astebreed, for example. The bug does not show in Chrome or IE11 so I'm losing hope it will get fixed. :/

Suggested change:
===============
- The game description and system requirements are collapsed by default, requiring an extra click to see all the information. The same is true for bonuses for games with many such (e.g. Alan Wake).

Suggested minor additions:
=====================
- About twenty games (e.g. CLARC, Consortium) have empty "Modes" field (i.e. single-player, multi-player, etc.). This bug appeared a few days before the the GOG upgrayde (with about 50 games affected), was reported, but was only partially fixed. [I can prepare a list, if necessary] [MaGog still displays (and will continue to display) the correct values for these games].
- It seems that with the new GOG one may somehow (don't know how) vote on upcoming games. Wasteland 2 Digital Deluxe Edition has 22 votes and 5 stars (yet it reads "Reviewing and rating will be enabled as soon as the game is released"). [Since the numbers haven't changed since yesterday, this may have been "fixed" already].
- GOG now displays either ESRB or PEGI age rating (probably based on geography), even for games that have both (e.g. Alan Wake). [MaGog will display both as they are both present in the page code].
- Some system requirements fields for one OS also contain information for another OS (e.g. the Mac info for "GODS WILL BE WATCHING" also contains Linux info). [MaGog will filter these out].
- The "patched to version" information is (sadly) gone from the game page.

Thanks. Added them, except for The Wasteland reviews. Can't add a rating or review, so it might be fixed.
Have you sent a report to GOG about this? Because I could do it for the general ones but not the ones that only affect some games.

I haven't reported anything yet. Let me know what you report and I will report the rest when I have the detailed info available.
I got an answer on the email change disabled:

the ability to change the e-mail through your account was turned off only temporarily, and will return pretty soon, as our webdevs report.
The problem with notifications on legacy pages is now being reported as fixed:
