    Its new, blue, and not instantly off putting; I might get to like it.
    Though comments now take up much more room; my scrolling finger might get tired.

    Site is looking good, but where’s the RSS feed link gone?
    I’m looking but not seeing it, I know that the feed still works but I’m moving from one reader to another and I can’t add Road.cc

    the actual layout of the site has barely changed at all. we’ve taken the carousel out and done quite a lot of work on the section pages, boxes, etc to make them more user-friendly, and signposting throughout the site is more consistent. oh, and it’s not yellow.

    The login one click at the top of the page was perfect, now you have to click one more page to login – admittedly not the end of the world but I don’t see why it has been changed (unless it was a inadvertent change)

    Also, i can’t see any news articles on the home page in either Firefox or Chrome.
