    New site design

    The rider (and teams) database that will be a real improvment. Great! (had to go to radsportnews.com for this) Tried the search: "Boonen" gives "No olympics..." "Ballan" gives "Ballan frustrated [Carcasonne]" "tour de suisse" gives "gerolsteiner line up..." "Gerdemann" gives "Gerdemann to CSC"...

    Results format

    Aah, that is much better. Thanks. BTW: isn't the report much shorter than it used to be?

    Spoilers, Yes or No

    Don't care Incomplete poll. I would choose "don't care", if you offered it. And has it to be about the front page? Wouldn't a spoiler free site to access the live reports be an option, although certainly not your prefered one?

    What browser do you use? I get it correct with Firefoy 3.0.11 But I still have to click "show more" seven times (TdS, Stage 6). This was promised to be fixed! Starting to get impatient...

    New site design

    Live report With the first new live report finished, a short note on that: It has more unused space than the old one (more empty lines, very big time specifications vs. small font(s)). The changing fonts were intended? I'd prefer one without serif.

    New site design

    Thanks for answering so quick. The whole site contains a lot of different kinds of blue. Gives me a cold impression. But I don't think you can satifiy everybody with this, unless you introduce "mycyclingnews" with different themes to choose.:) Maybe you let your readers vote on different...

    New site design

    [EDIT] posted before I saw Gregs last post Dear Greg, Stefan… I have to admit, that I never thought about the old CN as "good design", I only notice how good it was, now that it is gone. But I will try to be constructive with suggestions for the new one. Many points were mentioned before, but...

    You did last year, why not this year? [EDIT] Think you answered this. Should read before posting.

    New site design

    Who ever required it, it was not me. It is simply useless to me. [Guessing/] Regading new readers: you should think about the idea, that you already had all the readers you can get, as there is no alternative that offers the same the huge information content, the tons of photos, the...

    New site design

    Not available stage profiles, maps... (still not!) The Photo navigation problems... (still!) I think you should have seen these things before the launch. I don't think that it can be perfect, finished whatever. And I appriciate that you communicate with us and try to improve the site. But...

    New site design

    Not really. Just take two columns, with three it is to much srolling down and up and down again. This is (better than all the white space, but ) still cluttered...

    New site design

    You have to click five times! It's not hard, it's annoying.

    New site design

    The genuine usability improvment that suggested is: Bring back the old CN! The new one is far from that... Why start it when it is not ready? For me, twice a day was fast enough. Spoilers are not an issue for me, but would it be so hard to offer a unspoiled bookmarkable page to access the...

    New site design

    maximise clicks If you think that the site was built to maximise clicks through devious, undehand tactics, you are mistaken.. Then it should be no problem to bring back full results without lots of extra clicking nescessary. Just to give you one example. Do you really think the new users...

    Where's the Live Reports?

    But where would I find them if there were any? I also don't get to the Dauphine-LRs...
