Looks like
one of those large print books for old people, blind people, and blind old people.
I don't think this has ever happened before. The Redskins suck, yet the (Arizona) Cardinals and (University of Arizona) Wildcats don't.
what was that sonny?
don’t come any closer lest I clobber you with my cane and ear horn you young whippersnapper!
I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused....
Overlords
are not benevolent with this change.

Definitely NOT good changes
Way too crowded, the other page was wider overall, and the headings aren’t separated stylistically except being bigger – they, obviously, need to go back to color and bold and centered.

Also, what happened to our title?

The fonts are totally messed up
The SBN recent stories and search box is way too large, whereas our OWN stories are smaller!

They took away everything centered
The comments aren’t centered at the bottom of a story.
OMG SO ANNOYYYYYYYYYING. SBN has pretty good designers, I’m REALLY surprised all of this poor font management actually got through and went live!
I don’t mind the improvements in consistency and I think it does load faster, but WOW, their typography SUCKS.

AP story inserted photos
no longer have a border around them…. doesn’t look as nice there…
I could go on, but it makes me sad that these stylistic changes were approved, so I’ll just go back to working on my OWN css…

The redesign
looks like sites that won’t load in Opera. Some fonts are too big, some are too small, and there’s too much white space. It doesn’t seem like anything fits together properly.
I’m not a fan.

Chrome's supposedly having similar problems
Especially with the javascript.

I'm sure everyone cares about what I say
But this design is truly god-awful. :(

Wanna see how bad I suck at softball? See my stats...
Was it already fixed?
because it kinda looks the same to me… maybe a bit wider and more adds than usual though.
On the bright side
They kept the mobile site unaffected. Expected, yeah, but I often check up on the good ole SnakePit from my cellular device.

Kinda looks like
the site was designed by a retard and was published before his editor took over.
