view page are TERRIBLE.
I buy on BrickLink, I sell on BrickLink, but BrickLink is also an invaluable
resource when building. I need to be able to look up a part and see at a glance
the whole list of known colours and what ones are currently being sold. It is
really not acceptable to load the page and then have to click a drop down list
to see colors, then click known colors, then scroll just to see what those are,
and then have to do more work to see what is being sold of each. It's really,
really, really not useful compared to the old page layout. The old page layout
had this visible immediately when the part page loaded.
Please change this back as soon as possible. There should be a list of all known
colors and a list of all colors for sale at a minimum. This is important because
there may be known colors of some parts but they aren't for sale.
Also, it's generally bad idea in UI design to use a drop down list with more
than 8 or so options. If this cannot be changed back then the drop down list
should at least be made bigger so you don't have to scroll.

I just posted this as a reply in a different thread, but I will echo this change
as a TERRIBLE idea. From a builder's point of view, it makes designing a
build with parts that are available nearly impossible to the point where it's
just not worth even starting. BL please understand that more clicks than previous
version is worse for the experience. Nobody wants to spend any more time on BL
to get their research/browsing of parts done than is necessary. I want to get
to building and not wasting time.
Sorry to sound negative as well, but this was a huge blow to the catalog experience.
