Re: New Look MSN

It doesn't fit the screen in higher resolutions. There's a huge gap on the right.

Why can't this basic problem be dealt with by webdesigners?

I've only ever visited MSN's site by accident when I open IE for the first time after a new install, other than that, I wouldn't ever waste my time on it.

I have no idea what the old one looked like, so can't compare. I don't use the MSN website.

Re: New Look MSN

Don't use MSN so it makes little difference. However, I prefer the old one with tabs at the top.

It's a shambles, far too much information in one place.

Re: New Look MSN

What a waste of time and money.
The only time I ever have to visit MSN is when IE uses it as a default homepage, when I use IE to download a different browser on a fresh install that is.

Re: New Look MSN

Well I've downloaded the new Yahoo messenger.I like it but I hate the MSN one.I always have.

ooops.Misread that.However I have always hated the MSN homepage as well.Boring and insipid.Too much info and too much salesmanship.Too many ads too much wasted space.

Incog.

That doesn't necessarily make it aesthetically pleasing however.
