Don’t really see the point in making the lead image so large.

Millennials don’t read text; only images

It isn’t doing that on my browser...

I’m seeing it too. It might be a glitch, as if Kinja is having trouble resizing images or something. Then again, it could be some kind of “new & improved” feature...
Maybe tag your post “KINJA HELP” to see if they have any ideas?

I’m on Chrome, but maybe script blockers are doing the lifting for me...

New format we’re testing for big features. I welcome your feedback! Thanks all.

It’s a bit large. I am running a 1080p monitor and I can’t even see the whole image.

I’m not wholly against it. It follows in the footsteps of big features on other (not especially automotive) websites. It was a bit jarring though. Creatures of habit, I guess. I think with time it’ll be OK.

I like it for feature articles. Two things could make it even better: 1. The main body text column could be a little wider - like another two or three words per line. 2. Make the text “roll-over” the images as the user scrolls... this is what ESPN does on their feature articles and it makes it flow better as you read ( example ). I know this is probably more of a Gawker/Kinja thing that something you have control over, but it is on the right track.
