New Cricinfo Design

[Neil Pickup]

Just posting this to be the first to say that we'll look back at this in six months and wonder how we ever coped with the previous design.

Looks bizzare though. like the new facebook design

 

[silentstriker]

I was really used to the old one, so right now it seems jumbled and I don't know where to go for things. It looks better though, and I'm sure I'll like it more once I get used to it.

I know everyone always hates change, but I already don't think the player profiles are an improvement, difficult to read the stats.

reading scorecards is a pain. They have spli the two innings. So once you go into the full scorecard page you are taken to the second innings automatically and have to click elsewhere to go to the first.

what annoys me are the drop down menus on the front page, grey text on a grey background, broken up by orange writing and another black background...genius.

 

[Mister Wright]

From what I've seen I like it.

 

[zaremba]

Change Is Bad.

 

[nightprowler10]

Liking it so far.

Rather disappointed you didn't bump this thread TBH. For starters, you're one relatively few who should remember it.

Anyway haven't looked that far so far but what I have seen seems to be marginally more awkward. I'll not be best pleased if other things are more awkward, but I guess I'll get used to it as usually happens and it'll be tolerable at such a time.

 

[aussie]

Its confusing so far to me...

I agree.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

The scorecards looking ****ing horrible - so much like those ad-ridden Indian sites like cricbuzz and the likes. Player profiles also look bad.

The site has gone from quite classy looking to tacky.

 

[Jakester1288]

It looks better IMO, but it's not as good all in all. Harder to navigate as well, while we get used to it.

 

[Top_Cat]

With Neil on this one, looks fantastic and better organised. I do think there are plenty of questions regarding its appropriateness for those with text-readers (disabled people, etc.).

 

[pskov]

+ Front page better organised and clearer
+ Drop down menus rather than an unwieldy side bar
+ Wicket descriptions linked to scorecards

- Player profiles are harder to read
- Scorecards look worse, too much blue!

 

[jondavluc]

Certainly Looks good but needs fine tuning.

Blue + ESPN site = cricinfo.com
