When the new version of RVSkin came out, we stopped using it because the design and icons is not very nice.

Pairote, please dont take this badly, its a criticism yes, but a constructive one. The current designs are old fashioned, they dont look clean and the icons are like cartoons and they look childish.

The great functionality of this product is let down badly by the poor design and currently X3 looks 100 times more professional, why would we switch to RVSkin?

You seriously need to get a designer to come up with some clean lines and professional looking icons because theres no way I could offer this to my customers in its current state.

Thank you for your suggestion. We are working on the new design. I admit that we have the problem designing the icons. I will try our best on it. The new design will also include some X3 effects such as search box, movable feature categories. Example of the new design is on the attach image. It is just a preliminary work. Feel free to criticize on it.

Nice, I like the new design even better. Concerning the second screenshot, I'd suggest that you make sure to add text labels under each icon at the top. I'm sure you're already planning to do that since this is clearly just a mockup of the design direction, but I wanted to be sure to point it out just incase. ;-)

2010 and there is still the same design. The new design above looks nice. But is it going to happen sometime?

I already asked this and never got an answer.

Hope this will happen soon because your product has a really good usability compared to X3. However as 4uh said it does not look professional (even if it is professional).

Best regards,

New design is called 'rvneo'. It is about to release. Should not take more than 2 weeks from now. cPanel/WHM need to run 11.28.xx+ in order to get update to the new theme.
