It's not all bubbly and cartoony anymore, which I like

The banner ads actually fit, I know I’m probably the only one who doesn’t run an adblocker so I’m the only one that affects, but still, it’s nice when a banner ad doesn’t jump over the login box so you can’t do fun things like… log in.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔

I think John’s the only one getting anything from this site and my understanding is he doesn’t get much.

Actually, this season whatever I’ve gotten has gone into this 3rd Giants ticket. So technically, Clip Show is the only one benefiting from BFTB this season.

Actually

ignorance is winning. How could someone not notice the new look?

This would be a lot better if...

it looked more like the Union Tribune signonsandiego website, comments included. Man, those people are some friggin geniuses.

by BORTZ on Nov 3, 2009 2:45 PM PST reply actions  

my only wish...

Is that I could tell which comments were new and who’s replying to who(whom?) from my mobile without having to use opera mini

I'd also like it

If new posts came up in a different colour, or something like that – maybe with a bolt through them :)

The comments do, but new posts don’t.

Sorry,

didn’t notice until this was posted, but the new look is good. What’s with all the trojan ads?? Are you trying to tell us something.

Yeah, use AdBlock Plus.
