The New Mises.org

March 27, 2008 10:32 AM by Mises.org Updates | Other posts by Mises.org Updates | Comments (11)

Now that the new design is stable, we would like to thank all those who have commented on the new theme, and those who worked endless hours to make this dream a reality. There are new features planned, including a complete conversion of Mises.com, a drill-down search tool, and many small fixes as well.

We hope that the new Mises.org will make your user experience even more rich and productive.

  • I think there's a button somewhere that lets you launch the space shuttle.

  • Oh well, I liked the way it looked last year.

    But then, I still use the KDE "look" from about 2002, and anytime I'm forced to use Windows I set it to "classic" mode. :^)

    I like that it's more text than graphics, though, since text loads so much faster. Good job all around!

  • I would like to see a clear visual link to the blog. I can't seem to find it.

  • I note that these thanks do not extend to actually fixing the large font issue I pointed out. Remarks like "We hope that the new Mises.org will make your user experience even more rich and productive" always press my personal alarm buttons, since they nearly always come from form-over-substance marketer types who genuinely do think that beautiful plumage is all that matters when trying to sell a parrot, not whether it is alive or not. And sadly, this new "experience" is no exception and neither are those remarks. The previous "alive" is moving off the top of this comment box, that's how bad the font size is.

  • I liked your old format... as it made downloading your media easy to keep track of with the 'date sort' feature. I easily listen, document and rate the subject for easy retrieval.
    Now that you have the 'date sort' feature on the new format to make sure I haven't missed anything, I'm looking forward to using the search engine to retrieve the needed subject matter.
    Very nice! Way to go!

  • P.M., I wish I knew what you were talking about. We really want to make this right. Can you explain again? Or someone else who understands his issue?

    On the media question, that sounds like a viable tweak.

  • See again what I wrote here. I don't see how I can explain it better than that without sitting someone down in front of it or figuring out how to do a screenshot on this system.

    Maybe the above will make it clearer. The font size is so big that the above text box completely fills the input form on my browser (an older Mozilla under Linux with KDE). Here in the preview box, it's maybe a quarter of the size.
