Thank you for your request. We realize that no design can make all users happy. We are currently gathering all feedback we received and will then enter issues into our ticket queue.

I'm new user, and login in is very painful in my netbook, have to scroll right to find the hidden menu, and then LOGIN is not visible until I scroll down. The very basic option to LOGIN/LOGOUT should be the first thing in Top-Left of the page and always visible. All sites copied the stupid Google minimalist and hidden behavior...
Second basic thing is finding our own projects. Didn't find that yet.
Practical stuff is better than fashion. Please improve the usability of this site.

As I said, entering www.sourceforge.com will have three horizontal bars on the extreme rigth of screen with no indication of it's usage. Login option is buried down there. Right side of screen is not always visible on my 1024x600 display, seems fashion moved all logins to that side when in the past it was always first thing on top left of screen. After that I have to scroll down to find Login which is some place in the middle of menu, so if I overscroll it will get again out of screen...
Screen capture attached.
After loginin it's difficult to find my stuff, or posts I made like this one, when again, it's the first thing a user wants: (our own project and following our comments).
In all sites, LOGIN / LOGOUT should be always visible on screen, a lot of users forget loging out because of poor UI design.
Thanks, this helps us a great deal in understanding what you're experiencing on that particular style of device. We'll be using this in discussions with our design team as we continue to improve and iterate on the new SF layout.
Thanks again,

If you can provide a screenshot of what you're experiencing here, we can take a look at some general optimizations for that screen size / form factor.
Thanks,
