    I like the structure of the new one. It's cleaner, and clearer whilst not looking boringingly financial.

    I don't tend to use the main site much, except when doing my annual car ins etc

    exactly the word I first thought of - and I think it guides the eye better down through each of the items

    I could have gone for weeks w/o even noticing, as I tend to dip in and out of the forum. I only really use it for unavoidable spending (insurance, savings etc)...if I responded to all the deals posted, I would end up spending more than I intended to anyway.

    Having now seen it, it's an improvement as it looks far more organised. I particularly like the tools window.

    I love the new one. It is much easier to understand. What put me off joining the forums (and therefore getting very good advice) was the fact that the homepage was so 'busy' with info, i couldnt even see where the 'forum' clicky was! Thank God i finally found it!! :)
    Its much easier to see the info on the new one.
    Well done!

    Definitely more professional looking. However, the writing (and there is quite a lot of it) is quite small.

    sorry the page has gone wide, will see if I can shrink my picture

    is there a way you could set up some feature to shrink wide pictures automatically?
  • Much, much, much better, so clear and easy on the eye. Excellent job.
