Just opened up yesterday I believe. It seems a lot less cluttered than the last one. I hated even going to the old site because there was just wayy too much going on with it. This seems a lot more organized and easy to get around.

Thoughts?

It's going to take A LOT of growing on me. It is somewhat easier to navigate, but it's WAY too generic-feeling. We spent how much on rolling out new logos and fonts a couple years ago and now the banner on our web site is a standard Windows font?

The team pages are slightly better than the front, but other than the logo, there's nothing that says what site you're on in the masthead/banner.

Content is the most important thing, of course, and some of the social media stuff they're pushing is welcome (more blogs, Twitter, etc.). But the first impression for me isn't too favorable.

Yeah, why aren't they using the "official" BGSU Font? I noticed that right away!!

I hate being the only person in the world who cant get to the new site Even if I find it as bad as everyone else, I still want to see it and be able to get new news stories, tired of still seeing last weeks

Delete your cookies, and then try again. Your internet browser must still have an old copy of the site saved that it is using to load the page. Or, change your cookies settings so that the browser looks for a new version of the page a little more often. You should see a scrolling new window at the top leftish part of the page, with five stories, the first of which is Paluch stepping down.

I like it lots better. The old site reminded me of the billboards along the road when driving through an indian reservation.

I hated the old sites ticket experience. This one seems to be set up much better and easier to get to the information needed. I'll hold out final judgment until I buy tickets after August 10.

Finally got it, I'm not gonna say I love the new site, but I don't hate it either

Is there a Search function anywhere on the new site? I can't find one.

Minor issue with the new athletics website - the photo galleries from the old recaps no longer work.

The reason I'm concerned about this is a number of my softball photos were used as the gallery for a game back in '07 and I had posted the link on my on-line portfolio as an example of my photography skills.

I'd like to try to see if they're planning to fix those links because I'd like to update my portfolio. Also, it seems that's one of the folders I lost when my computer crashed last year, so I'm without copies of my photos (I've since gotten an external HD to back them up).

Anyone know who to contact on the issue? I haven't been able to find a contact or support link on the site.

It looks awesome!
