New Look MSN
 
So what do you think of the new MSN UK Homepage?

I quite like what they've done with it.

It doesn't fit the screen in higher resolutions. There's a huge gap on the right.

Why can't this basic problem be dealt with by webdesigners?

Oh btw ive PM'd Richard M to ask for a change to the poll with the first option. It should say Yes.

Say's you with yer bright yellow site ;)

I've only ever visited MSN's site by accident when I open IE for the first time after a new install, other than that, I wouldn't ever waste my time on it.

I have no idea what the old one looked like, so can't compare. I don't use the MSN website.

Don't use MSN so it makes little difference. However, I prefer the old one with tabs at the top.

It's a shambles, far too much information in one place.

What a waste of time and money. :rolleyes:
The only time I ever have to visit MSN is when IE uses it as a default homepage, when I use IE to download a different browser on a fresh install that is. ;)

Well I've downloaded the new Yahoo messenger.I like it but I hate the MSN one.I always have.

ooops.Misread that.However I have always hated the MSN homepage as well.Boring and insipid.Too much info and too much salesmanship.Too many ads too much wasted space.

Incog.

That doesn't necessarily make it aesthetically pleasing however.

No it doesn't. Thing is it's historically yellow and the regulars of the site don't want it changing.

Having said that, the forum section has 6 different colour schemes...including one that's almost the same as the one on here because it uses the same software. So forum users (and if the truth be known that's the only bit of the site anyone uses) can get rid of the yellow using the same quick style chooser that is on here.

Anyway, yellow is bright and cheery and fun and ghey!
