Any Jalopnik fans?

Do you like the site redesign?

Hate it. I can`t get used to the layout and for whatever reason the links sometimes open up to the local jalopnik site (BR).

Not a fan of the change -- I've stopped posting because it is so frustrating. That, however, may be a bonus for others

I hate the redesign. Autoblog's news feed is easier to use. Both system's posting functions suck

Thanks for the feedback. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me.

Another hater here, a good site made nearly un-usable.

I really dislike the design also.

Here is the classic site layout. Enjoy!

+1, hate the redesign, their attitude about the redesign, and I am reading it in classic mode like indicated above... But even that sucks, because the back button takes you to the top of the pile, not where you left off..

I'm switching to autoblog more and more... though Chris Harris' Ferrari post was a worthy Jalopnik exclusive !

Ironic for me, because I hated that for a while every other post was about a Lemons race somewhere... Seemed like they have one evey day ! now it's just the layout... someone should link this thread to their comments page ;-)

I know that the Canadian link brings up the old format. Has anyone been back or heard anything about their colossal screw up? Have they changed back? Made any statements about it?
