The flash that's there was designed to make it easier and less confusing, help people find what they need. We have a lot of information to present and needed to split the homepage into a fork in the road for the different types of people that visit Bido, and show them where they need to go for the information they want. While we may not have the format perfect yet we are aware that the UI still needs improvements. Best regards. Thanks for the feedback Jacob, we value your opinion.

The site is beginning to feel overwhelming and confusing. And 1 hour auctions just don't make sense to me. A simple listing page would be much simpler than that huge flash banner that makes me feel like I'm being pitched to by a site that is trying to sell stuff to me. Any good information is 1 or several clicks away. I’m just really not digging what they are doing. The site is beginning to feel overwhelming and confusing.

We have the ability to adjust the duration but that specific auction is a 1 hour auction. That’s correct, barring extensions by the bidders, of course.

We're really happy with this new release of Bido. A lot (hundreds) of new things are in place as you mentioned; we're doing a paperless contract process now (going green, you know), tags in whois to validate ownership (thanks for the kind words about this), we allow experts to vote on names they want to see go to auction, and the biggest apparent change is multiple auctions per day. We're putting finishing touches on some of the text in the notices to make it really easy to understand the process from submission to getting paid. Bido will just continue to unfold before your very eyes over the next few days, weeks, and beyond. We're excited. Thanks for your support.
