Why would you expect pop-up windows from the new menu? Why does this menu looks like a menu that will pop up a new window? To me, it just looks like a nice menu -- and I certainly don't expect pop-up windows from it. > With Opera, about 40% of the screen space is left unused. > I *liked* the quick links the old one had on the sides. If you try it with a screen resolution of 800x600 it will fill all the screen ;) A fluid design can be more usable in different screen resolutions, but when you want something prettier you need to restrain the horizontal width to get a consistent look across different screen resolutions. Almost every site (with fixed width) restrains the width to less than 800 pixels so that users with an 800x600 resolution don't need to scroll horizontally. To me, the new site looks nicer than the old one, and I'm pretty sure most people (specially and more importantly new visitors) will find it more attractive than the old one!
