    We changed the look and format of the FullSportPress.com front page.

    I just wanted everyone to check it out.

    Thanks.

    With the original content, live basketball news, archiving features and the rest ... hopefully the daily viewership will continue to grow.

    Looks better. Better structured. Definitely an improvement.

    If I had a criticism it would be the quality of the thumbnails in the central section. Do you use a lot of compression to save space on the server? or is it a resizing problem?

    Agreed. It's a lot better than before. Things are easier to get to and it isn't cluttered. Good job.

    I'll bust out a criticism though, but it really doesn't have anything to do with functionality: the top banner is ugly. I think the site could gain a ton of life if it was replaced. But again, that doesn't have anything to do with the site's functionality, which is great.

    Well, for me, the top banner is slightly cut off within the window. It's about halfway through the orange circle and 1/3 of the way down in the "FullSportPress" lettering.

    Other than that, it's a of a lot cleaner. Me likey.

    Nice. It looks a lot cleaner and better organized. I agree with Slomo, though -- those thumbnails are a bit rough.

    No direct link to the forums from the main page? Maybe I missed it but it didn't seem obvious.

    They look fine on my computer and they are perfectly clear. What's wrong with how they look to you -- maybe you see something that we don't see.

    Well, for me, the top banner is slightly cut off within the window. It's about halfway through the orange circle and 1/3 of the way down in the "FullSportPress" lettering.
    Is it like that for everyone? Again, that's not how it looks at all for me.

    No direct link to the forums from the main page? Maybe I missed it but it didn't seem obvious.
    It's at the top of the page, but maybe that's cut off for you?

    The top is cut off for me too when I use Firefox. I tested with IE and it was fine.

    Ditto on the banner and looking a lot cleaner.

    Good job!

    Yeah, it's fine in IE, but not Firefox. The only thumbnails that are smooth and clear are Wally and Stern.

    Can you check the banner now? We made some adjustments for Firefox, Netscape, etc users.

    The problem with the pictures is probably due to the fact that I used Paint Shop Pro instead of Photoshop. Next time stories are added, we'll use Photoshop and make sure it is set to the highest level.

    Thanks for all the feedback. It is still a work in progress over the next couple days as we iron everything out.

    For those who said the picture quality wasn't great, check out the latest pictures. Hopefully those will appear at a higher resolution for you.

    Thanks.

    Pierce, Marbury, and Hinrich still look a little rough, but the others look great (if you've uploaded new versions, though, it may just be my cache).

    We didn't re-do those, but just added new ones.
