    I like it, much easier to read. And as a Gmail user, the width is fine and dandy for me.

    Thanks for letting us see a preview. Overall, this makes it a lot easier to read. So well done team.

    A few queries - could the 'Big and Easy ways to save' be a small section on the side, like Question of the week or Top read guides?

    Should Andrea's Freebies be grouped nearer in the text to 'Freebies, Freebies, Freebies', if this is a regular feature. And also say put the free Hovis offer in the same section?

    Way better than the old one, can't believe it took so long to change it!

    It is a lot easier to read than the other one and looks more professional.
    The only thing that I might change is to make the headings on the first half of the newsletter stand out more like in the second half, as I assume that the first part is for quite urgent, important news :confused: i.e.

    Credit Cards: Late or missed payments can mean a £12 fine, a hit to your credit score, and a loss of any 0% or promo rates. While many big providers, e.g. Barclaycard, MBNA & Amex have promised leniency (see the credit card postal strike MSE News story), there's no guarantee.

    Just a suggestion, as a lot of the time I just skim through it and click on anything that catches my eye as might be relevant/important to me.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    "Cleaner" and looks less dated.
  • Let's see how many thumbs up I will give the new layout: One, two

    Ah - I seem to have encountered a problem here, I have run out of thumbs!
  • I really like the new format. It's easier to read/look at and looks neater and more organised and less cluttered. :)

    Thanks for all the feedback folk - we're going for it this week - there's more work in changing the underlying code than you'd think;

    I've read through the comments too and will try to take them on board.
