Much better. It was a hot mess before.

Hate it, they've intentionally made it more difficult to navigate

What the **** is that? Its insane. There are just a bunch of pictures along each side and aren't even links.

It's meh.

Having to scroll to see all the feature stories just so they can sell more expensive ads is a downer.

They've gone from mediocre to terrible. It's almost like webpage designers intentionally make their layout suck. Maybe if I had a 40" monitor I could see the description for the main picture without scrolling down.

Use Firefox with uBlock. uBlock is more memory-friendly than Adblock Plus. uBlock also has a Chrome extension, but Chrome leaks a lot more memory than the latest versions of Firefox. Disable uBlock on SPS, of course.

Hmmm why did they roll it out on April 1st?

I think it's like the 20th anniversary of their website launch.

Apparently it's been a big hit though.

I concur. Yeah, they've definitely added more ads as well. Where will the Adidas Starkvegas banners go now?

 

[ShrubDog]

Its bad

Terrible. Reminds me of Yahoo. Too much on the front page.
