Didn't see this one coming, huh? Or you probably gave up hoping a long time ago!I'm proud to welcome you all to Mess v3.5, an interim version of this site while we reconstruct "the mothership" that is Mess.be behind the stages.It's been beyond far too long since we last updated our layout but I've finally...

It's about freakin' time!
![]() If I'm completely honest I don't like the new look at all, but at the same time it's better than the old one! There's a scary amount of ad's and red was a really bad choice for the links, but the chuck norris sign makes it all better. So is this house style going to stay the same for v4? |

I regret saying I like it..
What I meant to say was.. It's better then the layout before and it's nice to see an update, but still, agree with the posts above, I dont like the design. As for the ads, I didn't notice in Firefox (+ Adblock Plus)... until I opened Internet Explorer. That's a lot of ads ![]() This post has been edited by Chris4: Feb 26 2008, 10:58 AM |

I think Shoop summarizes everything I got to say, other than it's about time!!!!! |

I was expecting something like the MessPatch Area, which is brilliant in my opinion. Sincerely, I'm disappointed.

it is nice to see a change in design/update but it does look really ameteurish and kind of thrown together. Mass amount of ads is distracting and kinda takes the eye away from content. Plus black on orange/red looks very harsh, not easy on the eyes.
I think the design could look good with the style just a little neater. Anyway good job on an update =] |

Sorry to say it dwergs, but it's too little too late. This site might have worked in 2002~2003, but it has been neglected for too long.
Even after the layout update it continues to be one of the worst websites I can think of, regarding the way it presents its content. A big shame, honestly. |

by the looks of this this is just a temporary under construction layout (black and yellow stripes)
i hope so as i dont like it to be honest, should have just left it as it was and spent the time on V4 |

It doesn't look too bad. Not briiliant but ok. Hurry up and get v4 up I say. The add to the right of the latest headlines I would say move that either to the bottom of the page or maybe down the right side under the other one. More space for the latest headlines to stretch out then.

Please stick to a modern, neat and most of all professional look, like the Mess Patch site. To sum up what I think about the 'new' site:
