It makes looking at the frontpage a bit harder on the eyes but whatever I guess I'll just go back to RSS feeds.

love the new look. Much more user friendly and over all easier to find what I'm looking for.

Or you can go to animenewsnetwork.com/news

Of course, that's only the news, so if you want the mainfeed and but with less color, I'm sorry, not right now.

I'm thinking we should add the "old style" as an option though...

Excellent, much better than it previously was! I like the idea of customisation and I don't think the icons seem like they're there "because they can" - they offer a quick way to scroll down if you're looking for certain kinds of information (or if you can be bothered reading it at the time).

Keep up the great work!

I think that would be better. I'm all for change and all as long as it's for the better and not just for the sake of it. The "old style" works for me as it is, but being "Johnny Foreigner" here news and info is all I get anyway. Wink

It's not really one thing or another but just that the sum of the icons, underlined titles and summary text is overwhelming to look at for me. I like the idea, perhaps there's a a more elegant way to convey all of that info without so much text, like more of a reliance on icons or something.
