mark 55 Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Arkansasmatters.com also got a new look within the last couple weeks.
Viper550 294 Posted January 15, 2012 Author Posted January 15, 2012 While it looks better (and finally, a lot more upscale) than their previous design... Some parts look a bit plain, and it also feels laggy and slow The navigation bar looks a little tacky with the thin height and the lowercase letters (Silly Nexstar, you're not Media General.) Maybe the background should turn darker or something when it switches to the nighttime backgrounds (which are a pretty good idea, to be honest) The Four Points stations still have the old layouts, though I expect them to be switched to the Sincrap style soon enough
Samantha 2907 Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 I wish they'd get new, sensible names. I nailed one and almost correctly guessed the other when they bought WFRV-WJMN last year.
kjohnson 17 Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 What else do their sites need? 1. Irritating website names 2. Slow, clunky, and ultimately content-less websites 3. No visible revenue source (ads). One thing that can be said for Sinclair's templates, they don't look like they were put together by the webmasters' child's kindergarten class. Sheesh. Unfortunately bad websites are the least of Nexstar's problems....
mre29 1589 Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 3. No visible revenue source (ads). Er, the Nexstar sites have plenty of ads. The new Nexstar sites aren't great, but I've seen far worse.
jdcnow 14 Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 The new Nexstar sites aren't great, but I've seen far worse. If you want to seen worse than the new Nexstar sites, does anyone remember the old "CBS Now" format of the late 90s and early 2000s that CBS mandated that all it's stations use - O&O or not?

kjohnson 17 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 I remember those. KMOV had a horrendous version of those. I stand corrected on the ads.
