I don't think I like it -- no I really don't like it.  BBC Online was much better.  Now everything seems to be spread out over the page and everything.  And on News Online you have that big top BBCi graphic-- Sad


Okay now i've surfed the site a bit and don't detest it so much -- i can get used to it. They could've chosen a more creative 'i' though!!

Yes, indeed they have ripped off the itv 'i', the home page looks like a complete disaster, it's all spread out and very bland looking. The grey bar looks awful and serves little purpose, no this is awful.

Don't think I like it too! It will have to grow on me! The front page is sprawling

Yeah, I'm not that keen on it either.

The categories available from the homepage was much better in a drop-down box or left hand menu.

The logo doesn't look very good - it looks rubbish on the tv bar on satellite. The 'i' should at least not be in a box.

The homepage seems so cluttered - too much to look at. The old one was easy to access, find what you want and clear.

Cheers, Asa

It looks, well grey. I dont like it really. It would be better if it had more colour!

Also the BBC News front page is broken, the top banner is stretched out, and the top bar isnt working right.

The BBCI logo is alright though IMHO.

I think its great! The old design looked so basic for the BBC, thehy have done a good job with this one, nice layout on the frontpage.
