After all some of us HFErs are getting up in years now. This small font size kinda sucks!

In fact, remove all of the right column content. It’s useless to anyone who has looked at the front page.

I know Jacob says the search box should be at upper right, but it belongs with your primary navigation. Stick it in the left column as well.

On the front page, in the table displaying an article link, there are three rows. Use only one row. Better yet, remove the table border completely.

Remove the “print this article” and “e-mail this article” icons. Put them on the article detail page. And don’t use icons, spell them out in English. Those icons don’t mean squat — you have to click them to figure out what they do. They are a distraction. In day-to-day use I only want to know how to read the article, and read/post comments. Everything else is hooey.

Make the article names link to the articles like WebWord used to. Then remove the “Read more” links. They’re redundant for sighted users and annoying as hell to visually impaired users.

I didn’t have to think when reading WebWord. Now I do. I hate that.

Further, I’d prefer to be able to use my full name as a login ID. After the common surnames are taken, we’re going to look like teenagers taking user names like “UzaBillyT23″ or whatever.

I’d like to repeat what others have said about the font. The new design is much busier; the old design was more open, and, in my opinion, more inviting. FYI.

And what’s up with the tiny, non-resizeable fonts? Trying to keep seniors away? ;)

Likewise, right now, people are only replying to the parent on this topic, so there are no threads. Get rid of the numerous “Reply to this” links. They are redundant, and there’s a ton of extra white space around them.

Probably just me, but I just don’t seem to be learning it very quickly.

And one more vote for a font size change change.

Also, in response to Ron’s request to start the discussions again: No it’s not, neener-neener.

Just insighting conversation.;)
