So what do you guys think of the new homepage?
Personally I like it way better than the old one, much easier to navigate and much better eye candy. Not really a fan of the white layout though at all.
As well the site seriously lacks racing stripes. :/
New Giant Bomb layout Impressions!
Text in the white version is much too light and pale to read, mostly in reference to quotes, small descriptions (see: blog titles on profile sidebar) and in things like the mini-feed. Also, neutral names are nearly invisible.
To coincide with this, Black Version also has darker text now, and it makes certain things hard to read.
All in the first 5 minutes too. Word.
"The layout is now auto-scaling to my screen resolution. Everything is ridiculously tiny. Help."Hold down ctrl and scroll with the mouse wheel to make the text larger.
"Jayge said:Did that. It zooms, but doesn't put it back to normal like it was. Not a good fix."The layout is now auto-scaling to my screen resolution. Everything is ridiculously tiny. Help."Hold down ctrl and scroll with the mouse wheel to make the text larger."
"The home page looks exactly like Gamespot's now, I liked the old one better."Now that you mention it, it does remind me a little of Gamespot's layout.
Not exactly, but a bit Gamespotish.
I like it except for the statistics info under the main banner. I just find that sort of info unnecessary to users of the website and it should just go back down to the bottom like it was. That way we can see more of the blog info and new videos when we first come to the page, without having to scroll as much.
The guides are a great new addition and the home page looks a lot more organized and easier to read; especially for headlines. Good thing the white background w/ black text is optional because it hurts my eyes like many have said. I'll be sticking to the standard colors for now. Overall, the new layout and additions are awesome.
Looking good. Everything from the front page to the FAQs.
I checked out the white version, and it temporarily broke me eyeballs. So for now, I'm sticking with the black version.
"Tables have been here for like, days."Are you saying we could've been organizing our thoughts into a neat and orderly table this WHOLE TIME!?
"Yeah i think i liked the old one better...but hey what are you gonna do..."What did you like about the old layout?
