I agree about the giant top banners. I think they are a waste of usable space.

That said, I like the clean and crisp look. I hope they bring it to the football site as well.

I just hope they fixed the way they are displaying ads.

When they first rolled them out, the space for the ad would appear, then if there was no ad to be served, the space would disappear, moving the content up an inch or so.

The result: Text that moved while you were reading it, and links that jumped away just as you were about to click.

First impression: there is about a third less text visible hence lots more scrolling is required. Why such huge banners?

Another Terminal Five here?
