    It's terrible, in my opinion. The more that I look at it, the more that I dislike it. I want the old DS back!

    So many CSS issues it isn't funny.

    When you have to switch to the mobile site on a desktop, you know the design is broken.

    How do you do that? I want to see what the difference is.

    I don't know why they'd change something that was working fine. It's like when they changed the layout of my college email system. Everyone in college complained about it but the pathetic excuse of an IT department we have probably won't listen. Fixing it probably costs them a few games of Solitaire :rolleyes:

    At the bottom of the page there is a drop down called style switcher.

    I tried that. The mobile interface was terrible on my Mac. I haven't tried the new DS on my smartphone yet. The interface is just so boring! :(

    Hello x+y!

    I'm hoping to wake up tomorrow and see the old DS. I think that I might be dreaming though. Surely the mods have to take in to consideration the FMs opinions.

    Hopefully. It just looks dull, bland. It's like we've gone back 10 years. :(

    Anyway how are you?

    Yeah this sort of layout might have been acceptable in 2003 when dial up internet was still common but not in the broadband and 4G age we're in. I remember sites looking like this when I first started using the internet in 1999/2000. I hope they change it back.

    Depends on the change. In the case of Windows 8 (or this) change is not a good thing :p The web layout is very early 00s. Awful. Hard to believe it's not long til my first exam! I'm gonna be stressed tomorrow like Doreen is in my latest story :p Pity Sheila can't help me out :D

    Well...that wish didn't come true, did it? It's so difficult to see what's been quoted :(

    Afternoon.

    Just got back from the radio station.

    This new layout is terrible. I really hope that they change it.

    Afternoon Mimi! I can't get used to the new layout either. It's awful. I hope they listen to us and change it back.

    Yes! :( I hate it. I sent DS an email about it. Apparently a few others have as well. I don't think that they'd take any notice on the thread in General Discussion but maybe they would if people emailed them directly individually?

    I've just finished reading "Chart Throb" by Ben Elton. It's based on the X Factor/Pop Idol format. It's brilliant! :D It completely takes the mick out of it all. Well worth reading!
