There is a new Kinja coming, yes. But, it's not going to be all that new, really. In reality, we're just getting the version Gawker's main blogs have been using for months now, the version on Jalopnik proper as we speak. I don't like the sidebar either, but past that it's fantastic. I'll write up a "how-to" tomorrow to help with the transition, but remember: Don't panic unless there's something worth panicking about afoot.

It is rather unpleasantly like being drunk.

Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters for everyone!

Also, I bet I will post yet another Heart Of Gold/Infinite Improbability Drive "normalizing" post...

The commenting system will not change, so fear not.

It's pretty much how Jalopnik used to look .

I'm not worried about usability or anything like that, I just hate the design. It's too crowded, too busy.

The current Oppo design with full-width pictures on posts would be ideal, in my book.

So the commenting system will still not work.

The new format is great. Because Lord knows we never want to look at pictures in Oppo...so the little tiny thumbnails will be just fine.

I remind myself that it's the content, not the format. That said, the format is unfortunate and not very user friendly. I look forward to your how-to. I'm keeping an open mind, but I thought where Oppo settled was just about right. I dislike reading the FP.
