I only ask as I'm not a web designer at all and this looks like something I would put together in an afternoon. Crap because I couldn't do the complex classy bits.
Seriously a paid professional did this? Did you keep the receipt?
1. Contrast has been reduced so making it more difficult to see especially for those with vision problems.
2. Posts are too wide so you have to zoom out via the browser but that can affect other sites being browsed at the same time.
3. Navigation. As far as I can see so far, there's no way to get back to the initial forum homepage. The link at the top of the page has now gone and that makes things much more difficult to move around.
As always, we're extremely grateful for your feedback. You can send your thoughts to us at product@digitalspy.co.uk and we'll endeavour to get back to you as soon as we can.
This is the first step of many. We're thankful for your loyalty and hope that you'll enjoy the changes.
So this bloke Ballmer phones up DS and says: "Hey guys, have I got a a challenge for you! Bet you can't come up with something even less popular than our Windows 8!".
Rubbish. The broad grey band means you can read fewer posts without scrolling. I think the posters’ name should be the same blue as the background to the quote and add reply box.
And why the full point after Digital Spy. ?
Designer was probably paid 20 grand for that full stop Ill have you know.... :D
That blue blackground (perhaps with a blue logo at the top as well, rather than one in a box) would look so much better! What a brilliant design
It looks a bit like the Tumblr design, if I'm honest, but that's no bad thing. It's minimalist, it's modern and it even references the hint of blue that the old website had.
me and the others over at www.Talkgraphics.com do monthly challenges and no doubt they'd hve some fun with the logo and believe me, I've seen what they can do.
At least DS's designersdn't mess about and **** it up completely under the bosses' orders so thatI didn't have to waste time farting about giving all my deatils before having to open up a new acount liek Google did with YOUTUBE.

Much better in bold. At least I don't have to squint to read the posts.
Think I'll just go away and hope it gets fixed sometime soon.
Noooooo not the smilies as well?! :eek:
That said...it took me a while to get used to the last changes made a couple of years ago.
How on earth am I going to take the piss out of XF in the live thread on an iPhone with this mess?
I usually fine with changes but this is awful.
I agree, a choice between old, new and Kargo would be good.
I'd pick old though, I loathe straining my eyes to try and read what it is I'm typing.
