>Feng Shui tells us to declutter and keep things clean. I've long thought the UI here on the Universal Thread was way too cluttered. I've expressed that to Michel who said something about needing all this information. Well, I'm coming back to how poor the design is, especially the home page. If I was looking for a new support forum today and hit the UT home page, I'd move along to somewhere else. Whitespace is important. See here http://www.designyourway.net/blog/inspiration/the-importance-of-white-space-in-web-design-with-examples/. Michel, please think about a major redesign. Don't think like a programmer. Think like a designer. If you can't do that, find one.


I think UT is maybe not for you, Craig. Based on your posts I would think you'd like social.microsoft.com much better.

I think the UT interface is unique and desirable for a forum. It took me a while to get used to it. But now I really like it. I wouldn't mind seeing some color options. Something close to Visual Studio 2010 would be nice. :-)
