It is no messier then it was before in my opinion.. And it's always good to freshen up the look every once in a while. And actually, I think it is a little more organized, which means it isn't messy it is just busy.

Agreed. I think it looks a little better than before.

Just give it time. Folks rarely like website changes when they first happen. I'm sure we'll get complaints when we launch too, and that's okay. Just give it a fair chance.

I like the new design. Much cleaner IMO and loads on my computer much, much faster.

Definitely gotta kill adblock programs and the like or the new page is pretty bare.

Websites which automatically play video when you open a page are annoying.

I think I was not looking at the site when it was fully up - looking better now. I like the big pictures to highlight the news stories. (they were not showing up before) I wish it had more cardinal and gold and less white. Wait, maybe this means white helmets?!? :jimlad:

Anyone have issues with firefox on that website. I see a big white box at the top with no info in it.

And it's loading so slow for me that I can barely scroll down the page. Dislike.

I had that problem when I originally posted this thread and now everything is showing up.

It didn't come up right for me at first on FF but it appears to be working now. The menu bar is definitely faster which is nice. Hopefully the mobile apps will see an upgrade soon as well.

Meh, its just as crappy as the old design. It's just a different hot mess. You'd think since it is our official site, somehow Iowa State Cyclones or a derivation thereof would be more pronounced, instead of a small logo and cyclones.com typeface.

looks like all the other college sports sites.

it is much better than hawkeyesports.com

frankly, all the college sport websites are busier than all get out.
