Poll: How do you like escapist's new look?

[scotth266]

Hmmm... I have to wonder: is there no way to ask the Escapist crew to allow individual users to shift back to the old format? Like a preferences thing...

I like the new one though. Very slick.

I like the tabs feature but the pages seem cluttered and dull.
I resent how only Zero Punctuation and The Escapist Show have tabs.

 

[untelligence]

i like it better than the original layout
it makes it easier to see what things have been updated

I want to say the old one but, that probely jstu becuase its once Im used to.

try this poll again in a month so people can already be used to the new interface.

 

[TheLastCylon]

Might take some time to get used to, but I like the design

 

[Spirultima]

To bright for my liking to be honest, but im still indifferent.

 

[similar.squirrel]

It's a bit too bright for my liking.
The old design had a nice, worn in Fisher-Price kind of ambience. This looks hostile and fridge-like.

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

I like the old design more, but that is probably just because it had been like that since I first joined. In time I will grow to like this new one.

I prefered the old design, not as cluttered and a lot easier to find what you are looking for. Theres just too much squeezed on the one page and no actualy borders anymore so its harder to tell if one part is linked to the bits beside it or not.

Same for me. This actually looks a fair bit less professional than the last design, in my opinion. It's nothing horrible, but again, it's just cluttered.

 

[a stranger]

its ok

The font's too small for comfort. Granted, I can still read it perfectly well, but it isn't quite as pleasant as the old. The organization is interesting, though. It's just the size of the font I'm not liking much.

 

[guardian001]

New design, If only because it loads faster on my computer. In terms of the actual layout of the content, As long as I can pick out one thing from another and everything's there, I'm fine with it.

 

[quack35]

It's cleaner, it's more aesthetically pleasing.

I like it.

 

[Glerken]

I must say, it took me for surprise at first. I was shocked for a little while... I think I'll adjust to it.

It's shiny, which is a plus.

 

[Zildjin81]

I actually liked the old design better.

 

[Fruitloops89]

It has been a while since I have been here so it was a shock at first, but I assimilated quickly and am now fond of this layout

 

[Aardvark Soup]

At the moment I like the old design much more, but I guess I just need to get used to it...

 

[Skeleon]

Okay, I tried getting used to the new one, but it just feels too cluttered.
The various columns of articles and videos as well as special events are just... mixed into each other on the main page.
I don't think it's any better than the old one.
