I posted on another news page about how artist summaries were coming up blank. I was going to test whether that had changed before posting on this page, but then noticed that the artist summary search box and the left hand list of links are currently not coming up on this page. So I'm wondering if those will be absent from a lot of pages in the new format.
On further checking, I find that at least some artist summaries are again accessible by clicking on artist name links where one happens to find them. But a systematic search for artist summaries by artist is not currently possible by any method that I've found. Also, I find no way to get to misheard lyrics or parody searches as formerly accessible from the left hand links. Will these features be restored?
Oops- just found where all those links went. They're at the top now. Never mind my other comments, unless you want to tell me I'm not too dumb for missing that at first!
Where's the messageboard? Is there a link to Inthe00s on the main page?
And the Author pages, and a whole lot of stuff.... I really don't like this format.
I didn't see the comment about the artist pages, fixed them last night when I found they were broken.
The author pages are under parodies where they always have been. The messageboard link is missing, but I'll add that back in a few minutes.

perhaps I should clarify.... there are now drop down menus at the top of every screen. Some regular visitors might not notice them, if their browser has the style sheet cached. The Parody Authors link is in the parody authors drop down.
Well Chucky I'm loving the new design way to go dude "thumbs up"
Glad someone likes it (grin). I'm still testing it out, waiting to hear if people have any serious issues with the navigation buttons working, etc. I think I'm also going to include sub-menus in the upper-right corner of all the pages for whichever section people are in (like the index pages have now).
I like the new look. It gives it the look of a megabucks professionally-designed website unlike the way it was before. (Sorry ChuckyG.) All the buttons work well, especially considering my Clinton-era computer. All in all, a great job!
it's ok, no offense taken. I liked the old design better when there were fewer links. Once it got past 50 though, it was a little too much. From what I can tell, people are figuring it ok, so it's going to stick around and maybe get tweaked a little more.
I think the new layout is kind of bad. No offense! I just liked the old version with the links on the sides better.
Well the links will be back, but will be on the right hand side of the screen, and only for whatever section you are in. Check the main index pages for an example. That way it's less intrusive, and a little more targeted. On a short page, the old design was way too cumbersome, the links stretched down the screen for three pages or more depending on your screen size.
well, it took a few hours, but almost every page now has a second navigation include file on the right hand side of the page that is specific to the section that page is from. Form submissions do not have it yet, but will shortly. Plus any other sections as I find them or people tell me about them.
Why is Literally Impossible Song Titles section discontinued? I liked that section. Shucks.
