Just woke up to the new changes on the nairaland forum. The edges are trimmed and there's even a different background now.

I guess Seun is listening to advise now and ready to change for the better.

Anyways i like the new slic design and just wish many more better things to follow. Like a chat app and other things that makes it a full community.

We can even have groups or stuff in here.

Lets go on and challenge other social networks. Nothing stops Nairaland from being better than fb and reddit.

What do you think guys.?

The Modes should create a paid VIP section.

nigerians can lie, since you are mobile and you cant reallly say anything for now, how do you manage to say this?

[size=13pt]When i logged on today, i noticed something had changed but now i can't even how the old one looked like not to talk of how the first Nairaland looked like. The only constant thing in life is change and we should be ready to adapt to it[/size]

@onegig: We could have limited the content width earlier, but it didn't look right when we tried it with the former white background. The huge white margins on the left and right were just too distracting. The new background seems to have solved that problem.

@wazobia_for_u: It won't. Making Nairaland load fast on all devices and on all networks is one of our top priorities.

Chat applications or VIP sections may create cliques which will ruin the camaraderie in naira land.

Previous websites made that mistake.

Yeah.. Good observation.

The old style was kinda too wide in of the content area... If you used a system with a wider screen you would have to be staring at long lines of text but this makes it much more readable.

Also Seun. Maybe on weekends you can sell the background image space for some more money. There's nothing stopping you from monetizing the site to its fullest.
