Welcome to the new Seattlest! Same as the old Seattlest, of course, but a little less green with some more leg room. It kind of feels like...do you remember that Seinfeld where Kramer is on stage at the Laff Factory repaints the lanes on the segment of highway he adopted? Yeah, it's so luxurious. If you see some weird image formatting or maybe Seattlest contributors going off on long, seemingly-pointless diatribes that's just us swerving back and forth, getting a feel for our new extra-wide lanes. Right now we're kind of in the dark as to exactly how much swerve room we even have. Previously, full-width images were 512 pixels wide. Now? Who knows! There's nothing over there on the right constricting us. We could make 'em 1512 pixels wide. It's like America in the early days, except reversed. Our established East Coast is over there on the left; Boston, New York, our category links and advertisements. On the right is the Western wilderness; massive pictures, senseless links, open spaces. Seattle lives over there, on the west/right. And that's where we'll hang out.
AHEM. So, without further tortured analogies, we present our new look. Hope you like it. I do.

I like the new look and feel, but I don't like how the links have changed to a pull down menu. I like being able to click on other sites I like to visit and they would open up.
I dig. Much easier to peruse on the DL whilst at work with the simple background.
