cool dibs on the old curtains…
I want to put in a request for a new shaved apple-head – maybe a blond dude this time.
Oh wow! I love the design. While the old design was nice, this just made visiting CoM an even nicer experience. Kudos!
Sorry, Daniel – the old head’s staying. It’s all about contrast, see? Well, that and none of the team has a blonde noggin that they’re happy to shave.
Love the Top Stories feature. How about animating the shaved head? Brown to blond to fucshia to blue to pink to brown…
Its not the best i’ve seen of course, but looks a lot better!
It’s like you put new rims on an old truck. wow! Awesome!
@SkookemLukum: Yes, exactly like that, if the truck in question is a 1965 F150, tricked out with a big-block, new custom paint, and a hot blonde standing next to it (http://www.sporttruck.com/feat…
then you’re spot on.

I guess what I’m saying is: GREAT WORK Craig!
Yeah, the articles surrounding it were beginning to get pretty old, I was kind of seeing “Best Independent Mac Store”, and “Woz Teaches Segway Polo” every time I opened the page, it looks great.
I want it to be blue ;-)
Lots of grey …
Silver/grey doesn’t distract from other content, and this was a tidy up rather than an entirely new design. However, everything’s way more modular now, and so switching out the various images and colours will be pretty easy if we want to recolour/rework the site in the future.
Bram O.—yup, that was one thing we needed to deal with. That said, I couldn’t let Woz vanish entirely, so I bunged him in the sidebar, along with that article about the boxed Apple II!
Cleaner and leaner – seems faster to load, nice work :)
