This newish hawtness seems to make a lot more sense than the previous(as in like, yesterday) iteration. I guess this is just where the team WANTED to take it, but were just waiting for Halo 3 to do it.

Guys, you may want to consider making the dropdown menus on top more opaque.
Because the text links are now white instead of blue in the menu, there can be a lot of confusion in instances where the menu goes low enough to hit the white "pages" text in the forums, or worse, the subject title of a thread. Go to a really long thread title and pull down the Community menu. It gets a little garbled.

Looks great, though.

I like it, it is much more streamlined than the way it was before. The only thing that I see that may be a problem in the future, is there is not quick way to get to the classifieds. I think that without that there will be more people posting ads in the other forums than before. Overall its a good change, with many new and useful features. I have yet to have any problems with it at all, so I guess most of the bugs have been fixed. Kudos to the web team for the overhaul of the site.

Veto for ARs!!!!

Found something that's rather majorly flawed.

My main gamertag isn't linked to this profile, as it's through a different windows login address, and I couldn't figure out how to get the two different ones synced up. In the pre-update, I would simply go to the homepage of my gamertag, and everything was fine and dandy. However, now there isn't a main site for my GT, only my Halo 2 games page. This seriously limits my efforts to see how far I am between ranks, which is one of the best features on bnet.

Please bring back non-linked gamertag profiles!

Why are the alternating colors back? It was fine before.

How much stuff did stosh help do? Basically when it breaks I want to know exactly who is to blame.


LOL

I liked the old layout better but for the most part I couldn't care less.

Why are they back? They completely break up the page. I find nothing good about them. I know you guys are working hard, but decide which one you want; you guys are just waffling on this.

Nobody is "waffling" - the hotfix that removed the alternating colors was removed by a new build (accidentally). They'll eventually be removed again.

Anyone else think the font in the 'Friends Online' popup is too large?

"Eventually"? I hate when you use that word.

Haha, well contrary to popular beliefs, everyone on the web team there actually does the work as a job and not as a pastime, so they're probably not going to be fixing a minor problem while they're off the job.

Oh, I know. I am just a bit testy because I am hungry, and impatient. Also the word "eventually" scares me.
