I think it's a bit easier to navigate, still getting used to it though.

While I spend most of my time in the forums, I like the new format. I think it looks more professional and comprehensive.

Nice job!

I have some trouble clicking the links on the drop down menus ... 50:50 chance for me.

I tried clicking on the PRO reviews, and you have to be really really fast to be able to click the links on the menu, or the menu disappears.

Site looks like crap to me now. In my browser, which is typically sized like a piece of paper, about 75% of the screen's real estate is used up by ads and other cosmetic stuff I'd rather just not have to look at.

I could take it or leave it...doesn't really matter to me.

I do think that repeating the same information on the right side that is already in the main center section is a waste of space. The right side could be used for ads or even eliminated so that the center section could be made wider so you can see a more detailed description.

This is all part of the trend...cram as much stuff on one page as possible and make the font so small that you go blind trying to read it.

It's the same as the ruse used by cable companies when they claim '300 channels'. Subtract out all the channels that are duplicated with different channel numbers and the channels you don't care about, like foreign language, and the actual number of channels is far less. Subtract out all the duplicate content from the right side of the page and the actual content is far less.

'Simplicity' is lost. One should look at google to see the idea of simplicity without redundant images and links.

As a programmer I despise 'web design' that tries to use every feature imaginable even when it adds no value.

To be honest Im indiferent about it. Its nice, but I liked it before too. I do like the idea that was mentioned somewhere about "suporters", by that I mean paying some money to help support the site. By being a Supporter most of adds go away for you, maybe just a top rotating banner. Just a thought. Im sure lots of people wouldnt mind the idea.
