It's back and it's new. Looks quite dull if you ask me.

Still, content is king and all that.

www.alistapart.com
i quite like it!

oli · 22-10-2003, 04:37

Oh dear, I liked it better before. The header and logo does nothing for me at all.
Still , glad to see it back.

smallbeer · 22-10-2003, 05:29

Yeah just looks like your run of the mill blog now.

Nice articles though.

sleepingfish · 22-10-2003, 05:45

Definitely preferred the old one (from a crayon jockey's point of view)

dorian · 22-10-2003, 06:45

the new site is faster than the old one if i remember correctly...
maybe the retro look is on the way out?

Well if these are the great gurus who will show us how to revolutionise webdesign and creativiy via structured markup and fancy css - they can keep it.

I officially start the "bring back the tables" campaign.

Seriously a great chance to do something different but again, again, again a a fucking blog.

Sigh.

Have a look at some the lastest zengarden for creative thinking and alistapart for the "nerdy" bits.

http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile...045.css&page=0 - liking this new one - I think they should update the main zengarden page as its not a patch on some of the entries.

Mik · 22-10-2003, 07:04

yeah or you could just add a link in your bookmarks to the one you want

oli · 22-10-2003, 07:11

for first time visitors though tho.
Only reason i check back is for new designs.

Stickman · 22-10-2003, 08:29

Structurally, the new design works better. Categories / topics make it easy to find what you want - which could take ages with the old design. But for the look, I agree with this bloke:

It's kind of unfortunate for them that zengarden took off when it did - because now it pisses all over alistapart for forward-thinking creative design. The content is still great, but you would have thought that the brains behind alistapart would be able to come up with something better than a blog (and a dull one at that).

It's had a 2005 revamp. It's not bad.
