Today we are pleased to announce the launch of the third major re-design in our 13.5 year history, and I don't think it looks half bad.
The new theme represents a serious gutting of the underlying HTML and CSS, as well as all-new graphics. There will be many design wiggles, bug squashes, and compatibility glitches that survived testing, so bear with us for a bit.
Please direct your bug reports and feedback (good and bad!) to Garrett Woodworth who is currently
in charge of such things.
Thanks to him, Wes, Vlad, Dean, Phil and Tim, who have each worked hard to get this out the door. Juggling the needs of users, editors, and various business functions is a hard job, and you guys did good.

No new content.. More whitespace than before. Lame.
Impressed (Score:5, Funny)
I have to say I have always generally been impressed with the /. redesigns and this is no exception. Well done team, thanks again not just for a great site but for continuing to make it look and work better for all the users.

Missing one thing (Score:5, Funny)
Overall I like it. But it wouldn't hurt to throw in a few ponies around the page. And maybe a little bit of pink wouldn't hurt.

Î'm stärtîñg tð thnk ¦t wôrks if you use stuff from L©tin-1. ¾ of it seems to work. It still makes no sense (yes, I wanted to put a cent sign here, but that didn't work). O1÷1 well.

The minimum font size thing sounds like something I'd mention to them.
As for turning off "the ajax crap", well, we'll all just get off your lawn now... but I doubt the rest of the internet is going to oblige.

I think you're overblowing
the problem of narrow
boxes to enter comments
in. If you have a problem
with websites not using
all of your desktop real
estate, perhaps you just
need to zoom in?
