What are your opinions on it?

Please don't just post "I like it / I dislike it". Explain why!

----------------------

? Posts are more compact with a link to full article
? More posts will be displayed
? More than one news post can be posted per day​

----------------------

Also keep in mind that we are still working on this. You may see changes over the next few days.

I liked the old one better

 

[Tqnbeanz]

This one hurts my eyes! I liked the humor of the previous one more!

 

[xanado]

you all do a great job on web pages.

I like how it was before the change. With these changes i feel they are graphically cluttering the front page. The links are good but if its just a short one why not just post it all.

Side note: Why so much TF2 maybe front post can be broken down by division so each one has a section of the front page and a DL can change it as needed. IE about events that are happening in 10 min or later in the week or recent field promos and such or just something funny that happen in the division.

i like the old way better

 

[Cyclone]

I liked the old one better tbh.

 

[Fear Feathers]

definitely the new one. The current one is a lot cleaner and simple

 

[Barmy Army]

yes i like this way.
This way items should not be pushed of the front page so fast often events posts end up on page 2 before the event and do not get the advertisement they deserve.

 

[FrikFry]

It's different. I think I would prefer two columns if you're going to be doing it this way. There's a lot of empty space on my monitor.

 

[Raul Tha Monk]

I dont like change.

 

[Muffs]

I dislike it, they seem to be to small. Also I do not like the design of it. The old border that we had was nicer in my opinion.

 

[Brandon]

I prefer the old one, too small

 

[Silent_Death]

I like it. I like the idea of having divisional parts with news from each division..

 

[Frankvader]

Just a different look for me really liked the old look and was easy on the eyes

 

[Silent_Death]

I like it. I like the idea of having divisional parts with news from each division..

I like it AFTER looking at it some more.. See sig for my first impression.

 

[Liliana]

We fear change.

 

[Cakeman]

I personally liked the old format better. More stuff to look at with little empty space. All the information is in one spot to see.

 

[kYuKi]

I don't really care tbqh. It's whatever leadership feels about it, yeah?

 

[Believer]

I like it. I wouldn't advise going with any more columns though or it may feel like an international news website.

I definitely dig not having to worry about my scroll finger falling off from scrolling down the old layout so much. Kudos, web team.
