Right now I’m 50/50 on keeping it.
Pros: It’s uncluttered and a bit more modern looking. Looks good on mobile.
Cons: I don’t like having to scroll down to the bottom to see the new comment list on my iPad. The menu is a bit weird.
Do let me know what you think, it wouldn’t be too much effort to go back to the old theme.
Edit: Cold feet, changed back. Still who knows what *might* happen in the future, eh?
Looks OK. Link colour needs changing to match the masthead though.
Thanks, changed.
I didn’t like the new look. There was too much going on at the bottom and it was hard to find the new comments (which is the most important function to me). But I can’t open the menu in the old layout. Is it just me or do others have the same problem?
Yes the menu remains an issue and the comments are important to me and I was a bit surprised on my tablet they appeared down the bottom and not on the side, which was annoying.
Oh yeah you’re right, the fifth or so answer under each comment is barely readable with each letter being in it’s own row, I forgot that.
I can’t open the menu on Android chrome. (Old version – I was too slow to see the new theme)
Yeah, this one of the reasons I was trialling a new look but I was annoyed that the menu has just stopped working. It’s something I will still have to look into as it was working in the past.
