I hate to bitch about NATS programs BUT...

I loved the old NATS sites. I loved the layout, how it looked, etc.

Now, I hate the new NATS. Sadly, I've dropped promoting several sites because of this. That's pretty bad being we only promote 6 sponsors that use NATS :( If the old NATS comes back or something a hell of a lot better comes along, I'll go back.

It's not friendly at all. Sponsors use really funky colors making it almost impossible to read and it hurts my eyes.
To find a banner the right size... OMG... It used to take 30 seconds, if that. Now it takes me like 3-5 minutes to find the banner that I need.

Getting around, figuring my way... Yea....

Am I the only one feeling the same?

I don't find them user friendly, but I don't drop a performing sponsor/site because I have to take a few minutes to get my marketing materials. Also, write them and tell them about the color combination, font size, etc being difficult to read. I do it all the time, and many just didn't realize it was an issue and have fixed the problems.

You can also request they setup a zip file link for all of the banners and fetch them that way.

Oh Bec, it was one program... The way they have their NATS laid out... White backgrounds with light pink borders, light grey text. The only way to read anything is to highlight it with your mouse.
They do update emails. But, the only way you can get anything is by logging in and downloading. The sites never did sell. Even after 3,000 clicks... not one conversion.
I have spoken to them many times about the color's, scheme's, etc. They would always say, "I'll put it into consideration." After hassling them, I finally stopped with them. :(

have you looked at NATS 4.0 or 4.1 sites? 4.1 is a HUGE improvement over 4.0, its kind of like nats 3 with the 4.0 stats backing.
