Please help because with the new blockchain.info design there is no way to sign an address.

I'm aware of that. However, it's not for me to decide what is sufficient to prove ownership.
We (xetsr, shorena and I) have already left negative trust to your (hacked) account, so it hopefully won't be used to scam anyone else.

Currently, it's about recovering it (-> giving control back to you).
In the sticky thread (here) theymos is pretty clear about the requirement of a signed message.

Quote

I very rarely recover accounts if you can't prove ownership as described above. There are alternative ways of proving ownership, but they take too much time. If I point you to this thread, you can't prove ownership properly, and then I ignore your future PMs, this means that I'm not going to recover your account. Create a new one.

You can take a shot though, PM theymos, explain the situation and point to this thread.
Good luck with it!

however it seems blockchain.info changed their design so that tutorial, is not helping me see where to sign an address with the new design.

If you are using the new beta wallet, I think there currently is no option to sign from the addresses (that is according to my information).
Although, I don't use blockchain.info, so if that's wrong, feel free to correct me.

You can check address used for our transactions in the trust profile.
https://blockchain.info/address/17yvP4yhut94QUBmWfyd1cpNDqxqbvEweQ
https://blockchain.info/address/1BkpvpVxmc1jtiyW1dsbcdYwcenDr9K5vm
https://blockchain.info/address/1AQgjgsC9XoFDdZpv89KUJPMLtNR8MZXhV

Are those blockchain.info addresses aswell, or can you sign from any of them?

Blockchain[.info] hasn't changed their design.

They have, if you are using their beta wallet.
https://blockchain.info/wallet-beta/#/

If I move a specific amount of btc from that address to another address will that that be enough proof?
You tell me the amount and I'll move it.
Let's say 0.34356322 btc
or whatever you want as number.

Please help because with the new blockchain.info design there is no way to sign an address.

^Blockchain hasn't changed their design. Just login to your account, click Receive Money tab, next to your address there will be a Actions drop-down box which you need to click and select Sign Message. In the pop up, type a message to verify your account and copy paste the code you get.

they have a new wallet. there's an option to switch to the new wallet on the log in page. once you switch you can't go back and you're stuck with an incomplete wallet with no option to either sign a message or export private keys.

if OP have saved the private key of that address somewhere he can import that to another wallet. if he can't then hopefully theymos will accept sending bitcoins from that address as proof.

If anyone has an account on the new Blockchain.info I would appreciate any help

Or I can send the admin here, $1 from 131pBGSGtQ9Z5XuGUFYV55NB1iq5nSoaJ5 as a proof that I own that address.

Thanks for helping

But I never signed an address before. So give me 10 minutes to learn how to do it

There's a great tutorial on how to sign a message with various tools by shorena.

Too many accounts have been hacked recently (especially accounts with green trust ratings). I've already escaped twice from getting scammed. OP, when did your account get hacked? Did you use a weak password or click any links on this forum?

This is why I left negative feedback without seeing a signed message. Usually scammers stall like this.

Of course I could be wrong and will apologize for leaving feedback if it turns out it wasn't a hacked or bought account.

Nothing much I can do. I left negative feedback, but that would only slow him down from scamming others. Reputation is most likely ruined by now.

I don't remember I have a linked bitcoin address linked to my account (if there is one I have no problem signing it)

Sadly, there is none.
Maybe some of your trade partners (ghibly79, chronicsky, luluchick, cointell, BitNow) can provide one of the addresses you sent them in private messages.
