[POLL] Anyone else think the front page of AT is looking amateurish?

[imported_Phil]

Anyone else think that the images next to the Review section on AT front page look a bit like it was a ten-second job to shrink them?

Here's what I'm talking about, maybe I'm just being picky but they look... well... naff.

Thoughts?

Meh, looks okay.

The banners are what attracts my attention the most. Could AT's bland main page really be a marketing tool ? :Q

 

[Encryptic]

They look a little crappy, but I don't even visit the AT home page, so it doesn't matter much to me.

You got a problem with the price guide picture?

 

[DanJ]

You're right they do look terrible. Blocky and just all around bad. Looks like they were stretched in size or something...

 

[DanJ]

Yea, they're actuall being resized on the fly:

Is wider then on the front page.

That's just bad.

Front page too busy and too many moving ads. I wouldn't be surprised if some people ended up with seizures.

Yeah, and the Sempron pic above it, too.
The price guide one should be a quarter-shot of a speedo, motion-blurred a little as it hits redline, or something a bit easier to relate the topic to. At the moment, it's a jagged graph (?) with an OC in the bottom-right.

Yeah, the flashing ads reeeeally need to die a horrible death. I mean, three at the top?

Didn't know AT has a front page.
