Tweak to BBC News Site

http://news.bbc.co.uk/ they have changed the main headline area, so it has a larger picture. Much better I think, dont you?

yes, definately much better, and easier to tell which is the top story.

Only just noticed that when I visited a few minutes ago.

Do you think it'll be permanent, though? I have a sneaking suspicion that they will be only bringing this format out for when they have a major/breaking news story

Either way with this altered look they have converted the BBC News front page to CSS. Looks like section by section bbc.co.uk is being converted.

No, the BBC News website still uses a table-based layout, not CSS positioning (although obviously it uses CSS for other things).

BBC TV Centre is right, this format is only going to be used when their is a major/breaking news story.

Confirmation that this is just for big stories here:

Aye. Back to normal now.

it's still rather crap. the magazine style layout is much better

I see No change. I can't!

Em...

still suffering from stupidity i see

You mean the entire thing used CSS/CSS2?
