Woes

They're talking about taking away the lovely Vertigo and replacing it with an ugly floating box. And they gave us a poll with the issue thoroughly confused with that of being able to customise site scheme colours. Go over and vote for Vertigo to stay, it's losing at the moment. Perhaps we could get a meme going....

He's just updated to explain that they have no intention of using javascript, only HTML. So no floating boxes, ugly or otherwise...

That's not so bad, although the detatched box is ugly. And why does it look like it has an x in the corner to remove it?

That link goes to the LJ design community; there's a screencap of the proposed redesign.

Xcoliber was ok looking but I don't like drop-down menus, specially when you have to go sideways to click the links.
