Smeggy Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Seems like some bright spark decided it would be a great idea to move all the sponsor panels and other shite to the left of the pages instead of the right. Now I have to scroll over for every page I look at because you can't collapse them. Fucking place was bad enough before. I give up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint.panda Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Probably/hopefully just for CanJam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'm not liking the change either, though at least my browser resizes the windows so I don't have to scroll over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeggy Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'm not liking the change either, though at least my browser resizes the windows so I don't have to scroll over. Sadly, my daily use PC is an ultra micro with a 1024x600 screen rez so I'm hosed on that score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looser101 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 It's a way to make sure you don't miss the advertising. So now you have to scroll right to see the content. Oh wait, shouldn't content be what it's about? Jude going back to the old way is highly unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrion Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Whether it stays or not I don't know. I do know that it was done for CanJam. Smeggy, sorry about the effect it's had on your browsing but you feel the place is bad enough anyway so I guess HF did you a favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerius Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 for sure! headcase is my favorite place on the whole internet. It's probably my 2nd or 3rd favourite, behind Royal Spa. They give great massages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smeggy, sorry about the effect it's had on your browsing but you feel the place is bad enough anyway so I guess HF did you a favor. It did indeed, I don't go there much anymore so it's a pain but not a huge one. The site is slow, cluttered and now has added annoyance. Hopefully it'll change back after Canjam, if not I won't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Adblockers? Someone posted a plugin for Firefox that helps, I forget who....Royal Spa. They give great massages. Sure they do. Happy ending? Why are all their faces blocked out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a bigger nuisance for those using screen readers / text-to-speech as they'll have a whole block of drivel before they even get to the list of threads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n_maher Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Am I the only one not bothered by the change? Seems pretty fricken benign to me although I can see why it would affect some more than others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhd812 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 i am also not annoyed, hell i think its a great idea to draw more attention to Canjam! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Like I said over there, there are plenty of boxy CSS sites with everything centered, and nothing on the sides. I have no problem focusing my attention to the middle of the screen on those. With the new HF change, you basically just focus at a 'golden ratio' point, more or less. Plus the scrollbar is better now, so I actually think its an improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPH Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 It doesn't change anything for me and I'm viewing the site on a 13" Macbook screen. I guess my brain kind of filters the ads and I focus on the content alone. Still, I prefer how it looked before, but I can understand why they changed it for now.

Elephas Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Not an issue for me: dual 24" monitors. Hey, one is dedicated for iTunes or foobar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postjack Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Not an issue for me: dual 24" monitors. Nice. I don't even have room on my desk for that much monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
