So, some of you may have noticed a slightly new-looking desktop header and footer. Score! You just got a peek behind the curtain. The monkeys have been hard at work to make your favorite site (no, not that one. THIS one) an even better experience. But that new look also involves a few other pieces of the puzzle that we are putting together. So we’re rolling this change back for now.
Never fear, we’ve seen your comments and have been actively writing them down. And yes, feel free to add more! Also, please do us a favor and be like that person who found out about their surprise party and then had to act like you didn’t know about it. Thanks for sticking with us.
and that is the reason that I refuse to allow program updates unless there is a new feature that I just cannot live without. Hell, before I swapped over to the more superior Linux OS years ago, I was still running window@ 98 on some computers and window$ xp on others - long after 7 came along. I still run 20 year old versions of some programs.
I have never understood the “if it ain’t broke, let’s break it” mentality, but yeah… I guess job security does explain it pretty well.
That’s right, but there is a point where we are changing shit just to change shit. This new landing page appears to be focused towards phone users. Because on a desktop, it looks like shit with WAY TOO MUCH white space.
2: On the note of “if it aint broke don’t fix it” the header of the site was quite broken. The colors of the background and the text had serious accessibility issues for folks using screen readers and certain forms of colorblindness.
3: This gets the header and navigation onto a new infrastructure stack which will mean the site is more stable, and easier to work in.
4: Change is hard, I am behind a lot of it, feel free to rake me over the coals any time things change.
