Some Gigs are getting a new look

Yea, I also noticed this feature on some top-rated seller's gigs. To be honest, it's not that user-friendly design. They made gig images small. Thought we are used to our old style but still it looks odd and seems like nothing is in its place.

Thats one of the worst update by fiverr , its not user friendly for buyers even . Many of buyers will ask me in inbox do you offer only two industries so first i have to explain them please scroll and check other as well. Second our gig images were explainer of our services , i think gig images should appear in SEO services.  I think its not a good update image.thumb.png.e37f703dcdb3fe1fcb3511c5f1c7af65.png

This update actually very bad for both sellers and buyers as well. Buyers don't have time to read through the generic title of a gig and decide. Removing gig images would make it much harder and the buying process more hideous for buyers. They would need to read through all the text in the title and there would not be any differentiation in the gigs. Gig image serves as the brand image of the gig which we sellers optimize for CTR and conversion. Gig image serves as the first contact point and attention-grabbing tool which help buyers to choose the right service for their needs. If buyer has to read through the similar titles of 50 sellers offering similar service, it would obviously confuse them. Having a gig image is an essential part of gig and it should not be removed.

Non-visual Gigs (i.e. SEO, Software Development, Translation, etc.) are getting a bit of a facelift.

I will repeat it again and again. This is the most awful update ever.  

You removed the most crucial part for the customers. 

You asked sellers to create videos and write detailed descriptions to avoid confusion among customers.

And now, you show the potential customers our profile description (what for???). 

The process has to be simple: Open gig page > Get relevant info > Order.

Good point. I am also very confused.

Design is Business? In this case, I don't think so! Looks like the wrong decision to switch to that design! It does not stress the gig and confuses both the client and the seller. I don't see how 5er will profit from this change either, on the contrary! And then, perhaps the old design, which is smarter & more straightforward will make a comeback? The current one is just a lose lose situation. I am sure most of us agree.
