As everyone seems to hate the new design, I going to say, that I actually like it.
I myself am a web-designer. I think the new design is cleaner and less old-fashioned.
The only concern that I share is about the amount of white space.
From the design-perspective: It just is to much! The texts sometimes feel lost in all that white.
From the usability-perspective: This way you can just not fit anything on the screen. On my laptop I find the cache-lists really hard to read.
For the latter reason I will create a custom „condensed“ style-sheet with reduced white space. How is the interest in me sharing this.
How is the interest of Groundspeak to add a „condensed”-layout option in the profile. My changed design will have very little white space, which makes it unpractical as a general layout but only for seasoned users. I'll probably start a thread for it when it is finished.
