Tom's Hardware guide had a face lift.

IMO, same shit differently.

Read their recent article on the SiS648 motherboards? Now they place MSI as the most optimized model and GigaByte among the slowest. Microstar optimized? Old Tom must be looking for new revenue ways in these low advertizement income days.

Tom's Hardware is to computers what MotorTrend is to cars.

Uuuuuugly.

Uuuuuugly.

It wasn't before?

 

[Buck]

Indead Steve, but previously you knew it was THG regardless of its ugliness. Now it looks ugly and is hard to distinguish from other sites.

 

[Mercutio]

Nothing is as ugly as the ICQ homepage.

 

[Cliptin]

Uuuuuugly.

It wasn't before?

Now it's ugly and visually disorganized!

(Un)Fortunately, no one will take credit as the webmaster.

 

[Jake the Dog]

seems more like just a change of colours to me. from bad to worse.

 

[LiamC]

I think this is a good thing. Now THG is less readable than before, so hopefully the number of times I have to explain why THG's reviews are less than forthright will decrease...

 

[Buck]

Your pages are much easier to follow LiamC.

 

[LiamC]

Thank you

 

[Handruin]

THG should say "optimized for a resolution of 1920 x 1440".

 

[Tea]

Your pages are much easier to follow LiamC.

But then, so is custard.

Ditto.

 

[Prof.Wizard]

Uuuuuugly.

The turkish-language site hasn't changed yet.
You can still visit it for top-notch information... :roll:

I dont think the layout has gotten any worse... it was pretty disorganized to begin with, if you understand the organization it becomes readable.. but not a pleasure.

The thing that strikes me is that the color scheme is so obtuse and uncomfortable to read. Tom's Hardware has not changed their visual style for years... I beleive that the style they used just 1 month ago was the same one they had atleast 5 years ago. It certainly is time for a change... but not a change for the worse. They need to focus on readability and organization.
