| Dec 8, 2018 at 8:43 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A | Please post any graphic design restyling you may have in mind in 1006a's New Theme post. We need to make EL&U look more enticing, friendlier and more inviting. Thank you! | |

| Oct 25, 2018 at 13:03 | comment | added | Dan Bron | @tchrist I had actually seen and upvoted that. I love that there’s a font which imitates ransom note cut n paste! | |

| Oct 24, 2018 at 11:48 | comment | added | Dan Bron | @tchrist Thanks! I had seen a couple of those. Now I’ll read the others over the next couple days (spread out so if I upvote them, which is likely, all the votes won’t be reversed as serial voting). | |
| Oct 24, 2018 at 4:25 | comment | added | tchrist Mod | @Mari-LouA I’ve re-featured them; they may reappear. Or might not. | |

| Oct 22, 2018 at 11:58 | comment | added | Dan Bron | @Mari-LouA Aww, that’s a shame. Here’s a video from the same actor (Dana Carvey) playing the same character (Grumpy Old Man), but it’s a different sketch. I can’t find the same one on YouTube: youtu.be/vYmA0zPiVHY | |
| Oct 22, 2018 at 11:49 | comment | added | Dan Bron | @Mari-LouA PS: watch the “grumpy old man” SNL video I linked to. It’s funny! | |
| Oct 22, 2018 at 11:48 | comment | added | Dan Bron | @Mari-LouA Thanks ML for the detailed and helpful comments. Yeah, I figured I would have duplicated a lot of earlier complaints. I’m not too fussed about this answer getting a lot of views / votes from others. It’s here if it’s helpful, the CM (congrats to her!) can use it if it adds any value. If not, we’ll, as you said, she responded to several of the gripes already. It’s too bad about the changes. The site looks so ... “function over form” now. | |
| Oct 22, 2018 at 10:08 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A | Aaaaaand lastly, unfortunately the announcement does not show up on the front page so the number of users/visitors who will see your post will be very very low. As for the CM, I've heard she's expecting a baby any week now, so she'll have her hands very full for the next 6-8 weeks. (source: IPS meta) | |
| Oct 22, 2018 at 10:04 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A | Do we need "TOP QUESTIONS" in 48,000pt font? according to the Community manager, it's all in the name of conformity and consistency. “The subheading sizes are standardized across the network. Initially, the logo was somewhat limited by length relative to height in order for the logo to fit on phones as small as 320 px wide. Sites with longer names will tend to have smaller fonts to accommodate this.” (Catija♦) My point being the CM had already "answered" some of your queries. | |
| Oct 22, 2018 at 9:58 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A | I upvoted yesterday but I didn't have the time to post comments. So, here they are: 1. Whaaaaat? You only found out yesterday how ugly the new design is? Did you not see any of the feedback posted weeks, months earlier on EL&U and meta? I'm really surprised by your tardy reaction. 2. Many of the points you raised, eloquently, have been mentioned by others. Catija ♦ addressed a few of them, e.g. {why} Is the EL&U banner ... off-center like that? “Because all sites must have this placement moving forward. The goal… is to make the base LESS/CSS for the entire network as similar as possible…” | |
