its the newssite for the belgian public televsion station.
designwise and usebility, i think its utter crap.
Your thoughts?

Messy, dense, inscrutable. A bit too much of the art before the function. I'd somewhat like the initial video bar .. if it integrated a bit better.
Lukas De Vos is dreamy.

I tend to agree with you.
- The images at the top are pixelated from being upsized.
- The columns in the lower part don't seem well defined.
- The left column just looks wrong completely.
- It takes far too long to load.And that is my synopsis, despite not speaking a word of kiddyfiddlerese.

i totally agree with you, but i see there are constant changes. the videobar already works way better then earlier this week (still pixelated tho) and they also changed the colors to red/grey while monday they launched as green/grey referring to the previous identity of the station (can you believe).

Through all the UI disasters (main nav on left for one), I can see what their vision might have been on the redesign. Obviously they didn't want to become "just another news site." It wanted to look artistic and fashionable.
It was just all poorly executed.
That video bar is the worst part to me. Clunky and detached.
