"the screen is now white and bright lol" Exactly what is bothering me and the style of the font.

Well PokerStars has finally joined the 21st Century online poker world. Gone is the cartoon simplicity of days gone by. Stars now joins all the other sites with recent upgrades that make it harder to scroll, read, visually assess... let's just say harder to use.

Bright white background with borders faded to near invisibility contrasted with dark theme player boxes on the tables - yeesh! Let's play "Find the Cursor" in the lobby! I'm sure I'll get used to it, but this is a prime example of the old adage (anathema to the 21st Century) "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Yes you can revert to the old one:

Settings-->Table Appearance-->Table Graphics (disable the new graphics engine and you must restart the client).

Mine is already unchecked, I deselected it in a previous update but thanks. I think I'll have to get used.

On the cell phone, I don't know if there was any change, but this aurora graph is already unchecked, it's not about that, is the color of the screen and the font a new update.

I think a lot of people did not like it, as it is not about security pokerstars could give the user the option to choose

Is it because you seem to use computer :hmmmm2:

Yes it's on my computer, the brightness of it all is bad enough but those washed out neon type buttons are the worst.

Reminds me of MS Windows 8 and MS Office 2013. I'm sure software these days, is being developed by programmers with no business experience in the real world. Maybe I'm just getting too old and hate change.

If your on the computer you can go into the PokerStars install directory copy the files under the backup folder and replace with files in main folder and as long as you launch from the install directory of the files you replaced instead of desktop icon it will use the old version of stars and not prompt you for an update

New PS lobby

How annoyingly and negatively the new PS lobby is for me personally.
Sometimes it seems to me that people degrade when they have money, a vivid example is the developers for PS. Why spoil what already works, why add bright colors, we are not children, I am more impressed by the strict or neutral form and a good game engine and processor.
The developers are doing everything possible to reduce the number of PS users.

It was already bad with the font change, which made no sense to me. And now this! I don't get it.

Side bets - why this action in poker?
My suggestion for PS is to run all tournaments in All-Shot format.
Or another option, to take all deposits in favor of the PS, so that the administration does not suffer and the site makes a profit.

Do you mean the new lobby that they started testing in Denmark? If so i did not know that they started deploying it in other markets also. If this looks like what is shown in the following news it looks ok for me. I personally do not care how exactly lobby looks as far as it is functional and works ok on my pc. and as far as i see from screenshots functionality seems unaffected.

Oh so we were ginny-pigs in Denmark? I dont really care about this new design. It works well enough for me, and so did the old one.

It is true, for some time now PS has undergone major changes and with it, new online poker sites are surpassing PS. It's an opinion
