new layout? overdue on the one hand, but i liked the old simple style more to be honest. -BSD

Posted by guest, Feb 14, 2008 9:36PM

new layout sucks, put back the old simple one

new layout sucks, put back the old simple one, or how about a poll of who likes it and who doesn't, I was expecting that

Posted by guest, Feb 14, 2008 9:57PM

I vote for the old layout. Anal_yst, what do you think?

Really awful layout, i vote for old layout

Posted by guest, Feb 14, 2008 10:09PM

I like it. This reserves usernames and gives more access to the site.

People always rag on change.

(that's why I'm betting 99% of the bloggers on this site our McCain boytoys)

i really enjoy this new girls front parts. i know BL is a bigger fan of the campbell, but sometimes bess doesnt know what right and whats wrong. Bc this girl is so right.

sexy layout

I like the new lay-out. However, seeing the handles of the posters was part of the fun. I had grown to love 1-2, girl, Mr. Pink, KLW, Anal_yst and others. I don't think many will bother to login.

Regular commenters, put your tag at the end of your post! I'm begging you!

Yea, this new format with registered users pretty much blows. Kinda like bonus season...

I hate all change including this.

Posted by guest, Feb 14, 2008 11:24PM

fuck me. i hit the road to see my recovering-from-cancer mom for valentine's day and this site gets cascading style sheets and a makeover. ass factor 9.5. at least "skin" the site so we can choose the "douche bag" layout that we had a few hours ago. i'm going to go get drunk in the guest igloo now. --Schmooze

I'm not totally resistant to change, on a positive note, this way keeps people from posting under your handle/name/whatever

I say we run with this ish for a month or so and see how it goes, gotta at least give it a chance

please tell me this is a joke. or atleast just a version 1.0.

why would there need to be a recent comments tab front and center? there are 100 comments on this site a day, and they're all for the most recent articles. are people too retarded to find them themselves? do they really need a recent comments button front and center?

and archives are nice, but again, front and center? give me bess' bio front and center.

the poll is brilliant. that must have taken a long time to think of.

and blogroll taking up so much space? plus *another* tab for archives by the blogroll?

and you realize that just about a quarter of the entire page is white/empty space, right?

and most frustratingly...google ads embedded between articles. that's majorly selling out, even by dealbreaker standards

Posted by guest, Feb 15, 2008 1:25AM

you should spend some time trying to fix the lag when posting comments. not butchering the layout and content. people come for bess, not for the next wallstreetoasis

I smell an exit strategy.

Aren't these things valued on hits & registered users?

That was a test....

do you think you could solve the multiple post problem?

It's like putting in a new stereo in your broken down car.
