      I like the new look, and I almost never like site redesigns.

      This one seems to be an obvious improvement in readability and attractiveness.

      Good job.

        Also I much more liked the previous draft:

        This is also very nice.
        If Michael ever does implement themes, we could have 3 standard ones.
        1: Retro/Classic
        2: Default/Current
        3: Modern/Experimental

        Hmm? How does that sound?

        Personally I think the new one is much cleaner and seems freshened up, but not completely reorganized to keep fans of the older theme layout happy.

          The white is too white! It hurts the eyes.

              New design looks like rubbish, trash, garbage. Almost looks worse than Slashdot beta

                  My suggestions:
                  • overall smaller font *
                  • wee bit more whitespace between stories on frontpage (or some seperator) as it all appears like a single big spammy slab
                  • also seperators/whitespace on the blocks to the right (e.g. a user may think "does the "# comments" refer to the item above or below?")


                  * = I don't understand why UI designers keep increasing font size every time we get higher display resolutions! I wanted to utilize those extra pixels to put more data on my screen! Rather than just slightly more rounded characters...sigh...

                    The new design is nice, although the fonts are way too large. For example in the Bay Trail NUC article, the text font is so large, that the normal font inside the graphs seems tiny.

                      Just Hate it.

                      it is huge step back.

                      It is not Phoronix actually, it is someone playing with our eyes.
                      From the site that counted every pixel and where you get to be informed on news and read articles,
                      you came to plenty of white space with, sometimes, some letters in it.

                      Why would anyone destroy great, functional site look, for something like this,
                      that is too wide and too stupid to even look at, is beyond my reasoning.

                      My screen is 1280. It is not only for me, I know.
                      But, is it for those with wide monitors who look pages full-screen?
                      Well, anyone surfing internet full-screen is lame and should be using it's game console instead of computer.
