Re: BBC News website refresh

It's a bit spaced out, but quite fresh looking. The old one was a bit cramped for the amount of New Stuff (tm) they've been adding recently.

Re: BBC News website refresh

I prefer the old one. I like the way the new one is spaced out a bit more, but the colours are a bit bland for my liking and the orange strip in the bottom right is awful, totally clashes with everything else.

I noticed the change this morning, I think it's miles better than the old design.

Re: BBC News website refresh

My son is utterly baffled as he can't find the CBeebies website any more. This is because he can't read yet but memorized where you clicked to get there.

Re: BBC News website refresh

Far too much waste of screen space.

In width it takes up just over half of my 17" screen.

Text is double spaced, more waste. Font is larger than it was before.

I can see only 3 paragraphs before I have to scroll down...

Like the colour scheme though!
