They gotta shine this turd up because they are getting ready to start advertising (tentatively). The functionality is actually better and geared more for mobile devices, which is how most people actually access the internet these days.

They remodeled HBD and are being pretty open to public opinion and feedback.  I would say just give it time.

You old farts may still like windows xp, but they are still going to make newer versions of windows and stop making stuff that works for windows xp.  

I think these changes are a sign of good things coming.

what the f are you talking about with that windows xp line? people are complaining because it looks like ****, not because it looks more like **** on windows xp than it does on windows 10.

Sorry if that didn't come out clear.  I'm not saying you use windows xp.  I'm saying that you have to "adapt or die" as a software company and I'm comparing this update to a new version of windows.  Also I am saying every time a company updates their software to something newer, people complain.  Like how they roll out a new version of windows ever couple years with new functionality as well as bells and whistles. A lot of people hate whatever the new version of Windows is, at first.  

I use Chrome on my PC and an Ipad and I think the updates look great.  This site hasn't changed in..... well... it has barely changed since I started back in like '07. Its way past due.  Hell, all three of the sites I play fantasy sports have done an interface update similar to this (ESPN, CBS, Yahoo) over the past two years. You have to market to the tablet generation and hopefully they are going to do some marketing for WIS. HBD is pretty much dieing due to abandoned worlds and lack of customer base.

if there is any real prospect of marketing, they can change the look of whatever they want.  Some marketing would increase world population and make the game better.

I will believe it when I see it.

I kind of like it, except I agree that I wish it would default to HD for the recent champions. I would also like to see the worlds I am unemployed in, although really, if I am not employed in them, I know they are out there anyway, so why bother to see them every day anyway.  I think it has a cleaner look. But I don't think it makes much difference either way.

I do not like the new homepage.  Why would the names of the Recent Champions be larger and more prominent than your own teams? The home page should not direct your focus to the recent champions, it should direct your focus to your own teams.  That needs to be fixed. 

It's a start, remain positive. Utahjazz is right about the focus, it needs to be changed. I don't like seeing world where I am unemployed at. I know where to find them if I want to play in this world.

I have no complaints. Seems a little more mobile friendly but haven't noticed a huge difference. It's just a familiarity thing, once you get used to it, you forget what the old way was like.

Mobile friendly yeah, absolutely boring and brite white, heck yes!
And still boring after five days!
