its new:
http://newstoday.comI'd replace the orange linkage with that nice blue of NTB
and
the new QBN logo, the stripe's a little on the thin side, it breaks up.
I like everything else - a lot. Defintely went Simple and Clean Good work.

I dont know exactly what it is, but it generally makes my eyes hurt and my head ache...
Some colours need changing asap.

I like it, it's got a cool feel, very nice work, and I love the loader.

It was down for 5 days for this? I was expecting a radical change. Looks good though. I like the contrast and the typeface.
I understand that mac users have a hard time with the light gray text.

I don't see a lot of actual features added. They added some profile stuff and a section to advertise a book... Pretty much seems the same so far as I can tell. It's a good change but it just isn't blowing me away like I thought it would. I was expecting Sgt. Peppers, the website. :)

i was REAAAAALy hoping for a vertical arrangement of ntb,pbs, pvn....guess not...but lighter is nicer...tad more spatial and immersive

I'm glad to see it looks like they cleaned up the code base. It's about time ;)
Nicely done, transitional XHTML. The tables are no longer.. should speed up the load time on posts like this, and especially in long threads and listings.

the new backend is phenomenal. can't stop clicking around. the visual representation is a little dissapointing. after sitting in photoshop and illustrator all day, taking a break and looking at this burns holes right through my head.

i would like to of seen some kind of world map like computerlove, to see how many are online and where you are all from.

Oops posted this in the wrong thread earlier:
Hey it's great all the backend stuff has been sorted but I really wish they'd had time to do more with the front - it would be nice not to be crammed into this tiny space any more. Also the light grey text is really making my eyes hurt.

the months in the search are spelled the dutch way??
and the light grey is verrry hard to see on a macpowerbook screen.

Agree with most of you. nice overall updater, but didn't deserve the fanfare. I was kind of hoping for some kind of b3ta style content where we could upload images and maybe even Flash content.
Doesn't render properly in Firefox 0.8 on OSX, which is a bit annoying as that's my primary browser right now, but hey I can live with the switch to Safari to use it :-)
But overall very nice new style well done.

I like the new features (next/prev, mute, autologin, find all user's threads, ignore, date and time on posts, etc etc etc.) and I must be a freak, but the dark grey text is an uber improvement from the old grey on grey of yesteryear. The orange on white can be a bit arrogant, but it soooo works for QBN. I wouldn't mind seeing a different color theme set for users who don't have good eyes and fail to calibrate their monitors, but as long as its original design and color stayed default that'd be cool
