Do you like the new look of the online edition of the JI?


» Read similar stories filed under:

I do not like the new look of the online JI site. Too many ads
are visible and not enough room to read the actual news. I wonder
what is considered to be more important?

I enjoy reading the day-to-day news online.

Don't like it at all....just as we learn the changes from the last time, you go and switch it around again. I believe you just made changes about 6 months ago, why the change now?

I like the look of the new website a lot. It doesn't have that crappy Yahoo cut & paste look like the previous site had. The ads don't really bother me.

Sorry you're disappointed. The online print edition hasn't changed. Find it under the News tab at the top of the page, or go to http://www.jordannews.com/Print_Edition. To read it, don't forget to sign in.

I think it's better, I don't see the oddly formatted pages and blank spaces anymore.

funny it won't fit on 21" of screen though without a bit of left/right scrolling. As far as the ads go, as long as it's free to view I can't complain about those.

It should fit without scrolling. I'm not sure if this is applicable in your case, but changing the font size might help. To do that, I usually hold down the Ctrl key and scroll down. That's my best suggestion at this time.

When there's a formatting issue on the Web site, I've been in the habit of sending a so-called "screenshot" to the webmaster. On my computer, it's done by hitting the Print Screen key, then going to Photoshop (File - New Document - Image From Clipboard), saving the photo/screenshot, and then sending it as an attachment on an e-mail. It's a great way to give the webmaster an idea of what's going on, since different computers act in different ways.

Feel free to send me a screenshot and I'll forward it on, if you like.
