What do you think of it?

i don't like it - i think it's lost lots of the ease of use that the old site had, all for a cosmetic facelift.

I don't mind it. I think you get more images to a page and most importantly images now open in a pop-up thus saving hours and hours of having to click back and reload a page of thumbnails. The site seems pretty slow but I'll still save hours by using pop-ups (I've been saying they should do it like that for years)

What is weird is that the color scheme in the redesign is almost identical to Corbis.

You'd think they'd want to draw a distinction against their closest competitor. Unless this is some kind of conquest through appropriation or something.

If it works better in Safari now I'll be happy with it.. I hate having to use FF...

What a mess. The old site was elegant.

And it seems like their search STILL can't handle "not" correctly.

The Lubalin Graph looks a bit... dated already.

It works in safari now..
I'm personally indifferent to the layout of old vs new, they were both nice... Someone mentioned Masterfile, we designed the previous version of that one and I was very sad to see what it looks like now...
I like the extra effort towards making it just a tiny bit nicer than some of the others without sacrificing the usability..
It might be just me, but I have no issues functionally with the new site...
