LJ are messing with the profile page again

[owl]

Beta version under testing here.

It's a lot better than the last attempt they made. The only problems for me are 1) too much whitespace at the top and not enough at the bottom 2) still no link to the tags page after how many years?

This was me hacking around with the code for ten minutes to try to fix the excess whitespace.

What do you all think of it?

*shrugs* Like I said, it doesn't bother me either way.

It seems to bother most of the people who commented on the post. Really, they should be able to take different screen resolutions into account, it's not 1998 any more.

Even if it bothered every person on LJ, it still wouldn't bother me. It's actually a liquid layout, meaning it uses percents to set the widths of the containers so it does stretch to fit the screen. It's just that there isn't much text at the top and they had to save space for the ads. I realize that you think that paid LJs should look better, but paid LJs are not how they really make money, ads are, so those will always be prominent.

As far as I'm concerned, they can redesign the user page all they want, as long as users retain the ability to customize their journal pages.
