    Yes, yes it is, a terrible crime.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    TBH I preferred it as it was; the videos were nicely laid out in order on left hand-side with descriptions of videos and now it seems a bit all over place with navigation needed which was'nt before.

    I like it , look at most videos on here but this is nice having a more dedicated page for it , if you know what I mean and the effects are nice too. and its nice to be able to watch a video without having Intel shoved down your throat

    Re: The new look HEXUS.tv is here!

    I prefered having the larger video player as the default.

    I also feel may be missing out on new content as instead of the old listing of everything, we now have a carousel and multiple categories to contend with; this would be fine within those category pages but the home page (hexus.tv) is tied to graphics section and isn't an actual page covering all of hexus.tv.

    How about an option to mark shows as viewed?

    If the site's being rebuilt, please target Diggs, etc to a _blank target as it'll save a few clicks!
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    I'm afraid I also prefered the larger video playback window, and I found it easier with the older layout to browse through the videos. The new design seems far too busy for my tastes

    Re: The new look HEXUS.tv is here!

    I'm finding the auto play pretty annoying right now - digging/submitting and going back to select a new video and the old one starts playing again

    Re: The new look HEXUS.tv is here!

    Is there any way to just get a straight list of all the videos in order of publication.

    Looked last night and couldn't find anything. I tend to catch up with everything at once, can't usually watch hexus.tv when i'm offshore.

    Re: The new look HEXUS.tv is here!

    If you just search without a search term it'll give you a list by date (HEXUS.tv - Turn on technology - Show list)

    However somebody has already raised the issue of dates being available, so I'll work that kink out when I get a chance.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
