I hate it. It's too narrow.

Web designer needs to fix a lot of the layout as far as functionality.


SDN y u act like facebook profile changes?

I hope we're getting punk'd, this is awful. 😡
It looks like they listened to you guys... it's back to the old SDN right now

It doesn't seem like the forums changed too much except for the colors and fonts (when it was the new look). Basically seemed like a new skin

I was gonna say... I don't see a difference...

+1. I was freaking out when they asked me for a sn/pw via pop up box I thought SDN got hacked or something 😱
 
It's probably going to toggle back and forth for a bit while they work out the bugs.

I would like to remind everyone, though, that you can choose to view the forums in the 'classic view' if you prefer by selecting the option in the drop-down list in the far bottom-left corner of the page.

Thanks everyone for your feedback!

The home page/main site (http://www.studentdoctor.net) has been updated. In particular, we'd love your feedback on the updated interview feedback (http://studentdoctor.net/schools/).

The forums will be updated sometime before the end of the month. However, if you don't like the forums changes, you will still be able to use the old format with just a new header and footer.

If you notice any issues (broken links, etc.), please let us know by filling out a help desk ticket.
 
For those of you who disliked it as much as I did, click "Default Style" in the top right corner.
 
It looks kinda less professional? a little more tacky? i second the comment about it looking very old internet-ish...everyone can get a glimpse of the new theme if you just go to the normal SDN homepage, not the forums.
 
Looks the exact same to me...?

For me too as well. The main site's layout has changed but the forums look the same exact for me.

Edit: I should have read the entire thread before posting...well..this is embarrassing..

For the interview feedback, separating out the MD/PhD respondents from the MD only entries would be very useful. Apparently, that was done once upon a time. It would be great to have that feature reintroduced, and if possible reapplied to the existing feedback considering how different the MD/PhD interview structure is at most schools.
 
Not really a fan of the change either. But I'm sure we'll all get used to it.

Edit: However, I just checked out the interview feedback. That I like. It looks cleaner and more professional. Good general info about the school as well. I think if we could just get people to do more school reviews and to get more nuanced about the highlights of each school (I suppose like the MSAR) it would become unmatched.
