Why is the 2+2 Website So Plain?

[x2ski]

No offense, but the interface sure is ugly. Has anyone come up with suggestions to improve it? Better layout, better look, etc.

Just curious

It works, doesn't it?

i like it since i am mildly retarded and i need technology to be as basic as possible.

dude you know you can change it, right? Go into your display prefs and check out the color schemes, it makes it a LOT better.

There's a very simple solution.

Start your own publishing company, release better books, start your own website, and then you can design it.

There are many better designed poker websites. I'm sure they'd love to have you. It's very easy to change the colors here if you don't like it. Personally, it doesn't bother me because it's very unique and I'm not here for aesthetics.

Totally ignore this thread then. I wasn't trying to get folks all belligerent... It is obvious that it wouldn't take too much effort to make the site more appealing.

The information itself is golden, don't get me wrong.

edit: In addition, I think it would be cool if there was some sort of 2+2.com webdesign contest, in which people who are good at that sort of thing could submit a new 2+2 interface for consideration. Kind of like the book cover contest.

I suck at web design, so don't think I'm just looking out for my own best interests. Just a thought.

i'll take this interface over more slowdowns any day of the week. i'm more interested in getting to the forums quickly.

at first i didn't care too much for the new bar thing on the left but now i use it all the time.

Impossible. Can't ignore any threads. And the belligerence is due to alcohol, not you, don't worry.

I guess I'm just used to 2+2's interface. Truthfully, I think teh colors are ugly but the interface is perfect. And since the colors can be changed I don't really see what the problem is.
