    Default New design missing non-mobile styles

    You guys are probably on it, but the new design looks to be missing styles for breakpoints above mobile. Looks good on my phone, though not loving the tiny font.

    I'm guessing they redesigned the site for mobile navigation at the expense of readability and computer users.

    I managed to get the font up to something adequate by zooming in text only on Firefox. I have no idea if it that will work in Firefox on mobile, because I have basically never used my phone to read the site.

    I think the new main page is actually too much white, and I couldn't find a spot to click to hear the Keeping Karlsson podcast, so I had to their page to do it.

    It definitely messed me up this morning when I went to check out the Ramblings. Like anything new, will just take an adjustment time to get my bearings.

    Can we not comment on Ramblings anymore?

    I am not a fan of the tiny font either.

    For the rest, I think we'll get used to it, but I got to say I don't get new websites tendencies to make everything so big that we can only see an item or two at the time (huge banners, yet tiny fonts?)

    I'm hoping this is a beta version for more feedback but in my initial look through I'm not a fan.

    I see this on many websites but what is the obsession with so many graphics/photos? Way too big, way too many. The focus should be on the information, not the graphics.

    As mentioned the font is even smaller than before. I don't need large fonts like some sites who shove it in your face, but compared to the size of the graphics it's completely imbalanced. And when you hover over the article and this blue 'cover' comes over the top is completely unnecessary. What's wrong with a simple link that takes you into the article? Too much focus on the look/modern functionality that doesn't add any benefit.

    And having to scroll down and then it says 'load more posts' etc. I hate that. There needs to be an end of page. Focus on the important articles at the top (with an accompanied photo is fine, just not large), then below it have a list of the most recent ones in order chronologically (no need for photos) with a link to the category/author for easy access to those articles. Then beyond a certain date (a week or two), refer to the archive/menu.

    Good to hear that the new layout is a work in progress.
    Not impressed so far.
    Dobbers article day 1 ended abruptly with paragraph about Fabbri’s injury. It would appear the rest of The a Ramblings were missing.
    Finicky to navigate on home computer and iPad. I do not use my phone.
    No comment section on Ramblings.

    Awaiting final product before rendering opinion on changes. Cheers

    I have to applaud the Dobber Crew for trying to make this site more workable and usable. We all know to expect some hiccups along the way.

    Phew, thought it was just me.
    I used to go to Dobber Hockey home (had it bookmarked) and from there could go to "latest posts".

    The other day the new Dobber Hockey home page came up, and nothing else except columns. No links to Forums or anything else. No banners
    or links or buttons at the top. So I DuckDuckGo "Dobber Forums" which came up and I was able to read. The Dobber Hockey link and all the other stuff which is
    usually at the top of the Forum Page is still there. So I Bookmark the Forums. When I click on the Bookmark now, a message box comes up "Sorry no matches" BUT
    the "Latest Posts" button does show and gets me to the Forums.
    Bit of hassle but this will all be straightened out soon I'm sure.
    SOME POOL RULES. Points only (G-1, A-1). One year Hybrid Pool. 3 round draft with balance of roster selected from any undrafted NHLer.. 19F 4 D 2 Rooks SALARIES AND POSITIONS DO NOT MATTER (other than being a F or D). NO Inter-Team Trading, Bench or Minors. Our WAIVER WIRE is ANY player in the NHL who is not Drafted in our league's 3 round draft. Each manager gets 6 ADD/DROPS (TRADES) for the year...any player on roster can be TRADED for any unDrafted F/D/R from ANY NHL team. INJURY RULE "IR". A hurt player can be replaced by another F/D from HIS NHL team and this is NOT considered a trade.. Injured player can be put back on team any time.

    Today, it's better. I can get clicking to work to get to all the articles, whether I left or right click.

    I do miss having a "menu bar" where I can just go to forum, starting goalies, etc. I'm not a fan of the drop-down menu only. I may end up bookmarking the forums only, and then use that to navigate to the articles.
