Elessar Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Give some specifics please, all feedback is welcome :) The site just looks like your average glorified blog now. What use to look refined now just looks bland. From the three featured articles to the sidebar...just very bloggy :( AN option for some rounded corners or better yet, the old design would be great.

DesGaiZu Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Not good having a flash ad banner bigger than this sites logo in my opinion, the rest looks fine though apart from useful features been below more ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMELTN Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Ok so loving the front page, can't wait to see the forums, BUT I want to stretch it out dang it.. Why can't you give me an option to fill my screen!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yodat Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Pegasus should not be this blog look alike :( An option for the old theme appreciated even though it won't be maintained... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveLegg Developer Posted July 30, 2011 Developer Share Posted July 30, 2011 From the three featured articles We've had promos like that on the site for well over a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted July 30, 2011 Supervisor Share Posted July 30, 2011 question: is the report button for the article comments supposed to be invisible or is that a bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaltalian Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 It looks good. I think the thumbnails for the three featured articles on top of the latest news articles should be a bit smaller, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger H. Veteran Posted July 30, 2011 Veteran Share Posted July 30, 2011 question: is the report button for the article comments supposed to be invisible or is that a bug? As in it only shows up when you hover over it? I think that's a feature :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmatik Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 It looks good. I think the thumbnails for the three featured articles on top of the latest news articles should be a bit smaller, though. Yeah, they seem overbearing now. Before, they flowed naturally with the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadrack Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I like it! Looks cool. Don't care for the "About the author" section in news posts, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BletchleyPark Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I love the new style, and this is the first time I have said that over many designs. I do wish there was a forum theme to fit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winlonghorn Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Why does Neowin look like a blog now? :( EDIT: There is no saving this new design, just checked the settings. Time to find a new site, man, what a day. This new site layout is very hard to get used to. It is one of the reasons that I don't visit Kotaku anymore. I will try to change settings, but I agree.

Xilo Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 What's with the horrible horrible site designs websites keep employing and everyone following? Gawker, Shoryuken are just two websites I go to that have had a terrible terrible redesign. Are they trying to push people away? because that's all they doing. I don't even visit any of the Gawker websites anymore due to the horrible crap they put up. Now it looks like Neowin is going in the same direction...

Panda X Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I like it. Though the font kills my eyes (all of them). It seems they're being rendered differently. These ones They look even worse default. Other fonts are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astra.Xtreme Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Not a fan at all Please change it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Til I Die Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Little harder to read but I think I'll get used to it. People need to give the new layout a chance... of course the new layout will take some getting used to when the old has been around years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freak180 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 The site reminds me of winrumors now lol. nonetheless I still like it :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owatonna Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Can't say I'll enjoy visiting the front page as much anymore. I've been reading neowin for 7 years and this is by far the worst design. I've never spoke up on one before but this one I had too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncc50446 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I like it, it looks good :) The only thing is, I think Dark Side should be default...It looks better than the default lol I also prefer the bigger logo, and lowercase 'neowin.net' But, those small things aside, great work :) Haven't had any issues on Opera 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted July 30, 2011 Veteran Share Posted July 30, 2011 (Y) i like the theme just need to tweak it a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorak Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I think it looks good. The only thing I would recommend changing is the color of the title of news stories. That color on there is like the color of a previously visited link on some sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
