Glad you are liking the new look! We're getting used to it, too, even though we've been looking at it design-wise and bug-fixing-wise for months. Using it functionally is very different. I looked to the right when I first logged today for my messages.
To those of you feeling confused/alone/scared/dizzy: I suspect that soon those feelings will give way to the familiar feelings of warm and fuzzy. What I'm enjoying seeing is that the vast majority of you are being friendly, saying you'll get used to it, and even expressing your confidence in our team that we've done good work, despite your concern. That trust and positivity is why it's safer here, and why we love our Escapists so much.

Just like anything new I have to get used to it and in my opinion the front page is a bit more busy that I like but I highly doubt they'll switch it back to the way it was before because I complained.
Yes, my thoughts exactly. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but I would welcome back the oiginal, more pale blue any day.Simriel said:
Love it, now there's everything here. Shamus Young, Doomsday Arcade, Unskippable.. and it looks fine.
Well, I like it. It looks crisper, more modern and, most importantly of all, shinier than before.
However, against it, I think that the main page is far too cluttered, certainly more so than the old design, although that may have something to do with all the shininess of the new design getting in the way.

Bad timing. New Stolen Pixels threw me. #91? What happened to Left 4 Dumb! other than that...sweet look.
I don't really like the fact that because I have to increase my text size, some of the text on the homepage (specifically stuff like log out and new message, at the top) gets obscured. I can't see them because they're going outside the box that they're in. Irritating.
at least, I'm assuming there's text behind there
Otherwise, indifferent.

I think that people are bothered with front page because there's no borders between articles, so it looks kinda cluttered :/
But that's the point of minimalistic design so... it should probably stay this way

Ha, further examination of the home page reveals:
I hate it when websites do this whenever the text size has to be increased, it's way too common nowadays, makes it look bad. LOOK AT THAT TEXT. LOOK AT IT.

But that's just because you increased text size. :-/ What did you expect?MusicalFreedom said:Ha, further examination of the home page reveals:

If you want everything to be readable to you and without clutter you should just zoom in (CTRL & +), not increase text size
