This testing tool was initially rolled out to half of beta testers. As of November 21 2012 this tool has been rolled out to all beta testers. Thank you for your continued feedback! 

Hello Beta Testers! As we continue to develop the experience of browsing and discovering artwork on deviantART, we'd like to gather additional feedback. Today, we're providing you with a tool that allows you to test out different thumbnail sizes. 

Please note: This is a testing tool built specifically to collect data from Beta Testers and is not meant to be an actual feature. This tool has been made available to a randomly selected group of Beta Testers, and is only compatible with Chrome and Safari browsers.

Two buttons have been added to the top of all Browse, Search, and More Like This pages in the web browsers Chrome and Safari that allows you to change the size at which you view thumbnails. You can change the thumbnails to display at 50%, 75%, 100%, or 125%, at your preference.

Try it out!


You can give this tool a try in Chrome and Safari by going to the Browse page. After trying different options and browsing with it for a while, please answer these questions:
  1. Which thumbnail size do you prefer for the best browsing experience: 50%, 75%, 100%, or 125%?
  2. Do you change the size based on the size of your browser window?
  3. Do you change the size as you browse, or do you pick a size that works for you and leave it?
Thank you! Your feedback will help shape the future of the browsing experience on deviantART.

Is this still supposed to be available? Because I'm using Chrome and the buttons don't appear to me :/
