Do you like the new website look?

Why are the Text "INVISABLE" between [adultswim] logo and daily schedule?

[j_bwoy]

it looks alright but i peefer the dark look they had

[Andrew T. Hingson]

The whole design reminds me of ASF but with black text on white BG instead of the other way around. And dang it I can't stand websites that are that bright. I need it to be black again. I actually liked the design previous to the previous of this one.

[Swordfish_II]

The background for the message boards and Fan Collective are still black with white text.

[Andrew T. Hingson]

I just noticed that. Thank heavens. The MB is what I go there for mostly anyway.

[Discloner]

Didn't they just revamp it? Aside from the fact that its not working right (I hope its not working right, or else I really don't like it), I preferred the old layout MUCH more. This one looks unfinished and disorganized....

I'm hopipng, and thinking, its all some big joke. Because seriously, the work that went into the last redesign for the site seemed tremendous. Almost anyone can do what they did here. Likewise they're still using elements from the old design for things like for the Fix, the Download section, yadda yadda; which further suggests perhaps they're just looking for a response?

Plus their employee blog is not listed on it, and you know how much they love to watch themselves talk. :p

EDIT: And ACK! Its got a horizontal scroll bar if your window isn't maximized! No honest and true web designer would EVER make a horizontal scroll bar that long...that's just....evil!

[Rabi~en~Rose]

it looks better honestly. a nice clean look kind of like the cards and the new schedule checker is better then before :)

[MasterZaffro]

This is just a joke, by next week it will be changed back guaranteed.

"OH GOD THE SIDEBAR, IT BURNS"
*agrees*

[blitzkrieg]

I'm guessing it's a joke and they'll either go back to the old design or eventually switch to a new diesgn but personally I like the new one if simply for the fact that the clouds nagivation menu never worked for me in Firefox.

[IWDP Lim]

Well, at least theres less Flash, but theres still too much there (especially in the downloads section...).

[One Radical Dude]

If this is not a joke, I have to say that this design looks too plain. It look as if anyone can do a site like that.

[Youko Recca]

Yeah, this is probally just a joke.

[Discloner]

Now I'm even more inclined to think it's a joke because they've posted an article on the main page (a la Saved by the Bell) about fans embracing the new look.

It used to be that I defended AS's attempt at stupidity (I for one never saw anything remotely wrong with Croc vs Shark week)...but honstly guys. Lining up a stunt with the same goal nearly two weeks in a row? Its tiring and annoying, and you're only jading your loyal fanbase in the process.

I agree (but I'm the guy who did the five year old bumping so...) that [as] is getting very annoying with things like Boo Boo Runs Wild, the 12 oz. mouse New Year's Eve Marathon, Saved by the Bell, Chuck Norris: Karate Kommandoes, Gary Coleman Show, Super Globetrotters, Mr. T, and their new website. Really the [as] fix and Eureka Seven are the only good things they've thought of. But why are they so intent on annoying us?

[Deadman]

i like the old site better.

[Nimarmo]

This new layout is excellent. You can actually find information you want. The old site was simply terrible -- the cloud navigation was horrible and everything was hard to read at 1600x1200.

[Beat]

Welcome back stupid viewer. Go ahead, try and change the channel! We know you'll be back!

There are enough Williams Street Wankers who attack anyone that think this is a stupid idea, giving them the go-ahead to do so. No, that doesn't make it OK. No way in hell would TBS allow Williams Street to act this way.

I hate to admit it, but recently I was thinking the exact same thought. It's funny a few times, but then it gets REALLY ANNOYING. And the podcast (I've been posting the talkbacks for it) and they've had 2 out of 13 of the episodes of SBTB. I didn't even know what the hell they were talking about. I NEVER WATCHED SBTB! IT SUCKS!

[Lord Mawdryn]

I like the new redesign because I couldn't even sign on to the previous redesign at all. Too much Flash gives my overtaxed computer a headache...

[herbkir]

I like the new face of AS. It's simple, straightforward, loads fast, lets me find what I want right away. It's free from annoying frills that don't really do anything for functionality.

A Web site exists to provide information to its users. Anything that gets in the way of that function is counterproductive. Cloud-shaped Flash buttons may be cool in web site design contests, but crap like that just gets in the way of the information and interaction that people want from the site.

Once they get the bugs worked out, I think this will be a popular design. By the way, the design that just got replaced lasted a mere 10 months, and is the second shortest life span for an AS site design. The shortest, based around the old safety-card bumps, lasted just 4 months. (^_*)

[empireofshadow]

It could use some work, but overall it's great. No more Flash players to worry about. That's the biggest and best thing.

[Duke]

Aww, I liked the old design. Even when I had 56K I liked the old design. The only problem was searching for wallpapers for specific shows, but I still liked it...

[TheGLIVEN]

I dont know why everyone's saying that theres no Flashes....
Just look on most other menus. And that video of the Coke bottle exploding on the homepage? Flash. You guessed it.

[Swordfish_II]

The main navigation isn't Flash anymore, which was one of the problems some people were having.

[RD!]

Now if only Toonzone could get their NEW adultswim website look!

[Duke]

Yea, Toonzone really should update their look.

Personally, I don't mind Toon Zone's look, but Toonzone's look just sucks.

[RD!]

I have no idea what Toon Zone is. Is it an adult website? OH GOD WHERE IS TOONZONE.COM TAKING ME TO.

[Duke]

Actually, Toonzone.com doesn't lead to a porn site anymore. It leads to one of those random search engine-type site thingys.

[RD!]

I'm just trying to make you laugh with adult content on the adult swim board. God, Duke. GOD.

[Zinal]

I like the old look better.
