Culture: The Onion A.V. Club redesign: Meh.

  • What we like The header font is a nice, cool slab serif, and you know how we feel about dotted lines here at ShortFormBlog. This is one of our favorite Web sites, and we want to see it do well, so we’ll visit it anyway, but …
  • What we don’t like Too much freakin’ white space in all the wrong spots. The previous design felt very efficient in its usage of white space and its bold use of images. Here, the images are smaller and less meaningful, the page is far too vertical, and it just feels like there’s a heck of a lot of wasted air. To put it simply, it feels unfinished. Agree, disagree?

    Agree. The white space is almost disorienting.

    The navigation bar is way cool.
    A background color to the page would help to keep from feeling so naked.
