Will you be re-adding the top commentators widget back? Also, the top categories and archives list is getting awfully long, any way of shortening that up?

Very nice so far! I like it.

The links at the bottom don’t work yet however. :P

Sweet man can’t wait to see the finished product!

Looks sweet — nicely done! I especially like the contrast in the sitepoint post. The AuctionAds block detracts from the page, so I’d dump it if its not a substantial revenue producer.

Sweet! It’s starting to look pretty kick ass Shoe. I can’t wait to see it when it’s finished.

Not a very good use of space on the top half of the page. I see you’re adding two more ad blocks, so you decided to throw a little bio blurb to fill out the rest of the space…kinda tacky to stick it right at the top. If you decide to keep About SM, make sure it only displays to new visitors… Everything else looks good.

While you’re changing things can you go ahead and add “tabindex=5″ to the “Add comment” button?! This way when we hit tab we can submit the comment instead of going to the top of the page. 8)

I thought your site looking weird was the “goal” ??? ;)

I must be missing something. Why am I not seeing the new design?

17 Manthem March 3, 2007 at 6:00 pm

The comment bar formatting after each post is mis-aligned for me. Anyone else?

18 Tyler Banfield March 3, 2007 at 6:36 pm

I think it’s back to normal for now, it was different earlier.

I like the color scheme of the new site, but I like the layout of this site better.

still wait for the finished work. :)

Why doesn’t someone post a screenshot of the new layout for us? Someone had to have grabbed one…

Oh, come on… Developing live is a rush! There’s nothing quite like crippling your site and then having to scramble to get it back online.

23 fivecentnickel.com March 3, 2007 at 8:18 pm

Yeah, I must’ve missed it, too.

Reply

24 fivecentnickel.com March 3, 2007 at 8:21 pm

Yeah, I’d love to see it. Guess that’s what I get for not checking back earlier today.

If you’re going to say something stupid, at least don’t be smug about it.

I’m curious – its already pretty good.. look forward to the new one (assuming layout is the change ?) :)

Right now tho it looks same as always..

30 Stuart March 4, 2007 at 6:22 pm

Yep, the blog layout is back to normal now. I’d assume he’ll be switching layouts in the next couple days/weeks.

I have seen the new layout. It is abit too Heavy in terms of grapics your pic with every post doesnt look good.

Reply

32 wildbluff_matt March 5, 2007 at 9:19 am

I was thinking the same thing. Anyone grab a screenshot of it?

Reply

33 Gamermk March 5, 2007 at 10:03 am

It doesn’t matter if it looks good or not. It still establishes trust and reinforces that we are reading something wrote by a real person. Sounds like a good change.

p.s. I don’t suppose you could get a pic of you and Carmen Electra for us to stare at everyday?

Everything looks the same…
