New layout sucks sucks sucks!!!

The ads are bigger and those pixels are very very expensive.

It was fun but it's just not wokring. Bring it back up to normal size now.

Why is it that when I "Click to Enlarge", it doesn't? Is this some non-standard use of the word "enlarge"? Does it, perhaps, enlarge spiritually?

It's a comic about Lieberman. Did you really expect the link to do what is supposedly there for? You'll have to make lots of promises and get it on some talk shows first, then we'll see.

Right click on the image of the comic and select View Image. Then you can see it at full res.

Wish I could read his strip.

The new layout really is rather suboptimal, to say the least.

And what happened to linking to the comics on the front page. How many clicks did it take for me to get there? I forget.

Can't read my Tom Tomorrow cartoon - it's too small. Clicking on the link doesn't help.

Design FAIL.

(I'm not a fan of the redesign anyway; I can't find a table of contents, and a lot of articles are teased more than once on the same page. It's as if Salon is trying to cater to people who don't read more than an article or two a day.)

I realize this particular bug is one of those 'glitches to be worked out of the new system' or some such excuse, but I can't figure out why the new system to begin with.

The enlarge link does not work, the old Salon site appears to be retired. TMW is totally impossible to read now. Even with my reading glasses.

Engineers are behind the redesign of Salon.

"If it ain't broke... it doesn't have enough features yet."

This new format is quite irritating.

Because that's the only possible reason for this annoying-ass layout. :P

You can see the cartoons better in "Salon Mobile" view. Bookmark this link:

It's the only way to beat the system! (Other than buying a bigger monitor, that is.)

(Link at signature.)

The mobile version is actually preferable to the redesigned version in every respect. I'll strictly surf that one from now on.

And then the stupid enlargement won't work!

This redesign needs to die. Now. Cut off the gangrenous leg, go back to the old site, or you will lose readers. Not a threat, a prophecy.

at least on my computer the "click alternate, hit view" approach has admitted me to the inner sanctum. Now excuse me while I go read the damn thing.

Why is the cartoon followed by other stories on Lieberman instead of other Tom Tomorrow cartoons? When did they make this new layout? I thought the old layout was fine.

But yeah, the comic is too small to read and the 'enlarge' link doesn't seem to work.

Joe Lieberman, Kenneth Starr, Linda Tripp.

Wow, Tom! You've done it again! Another terrific editorial illustration, filled with caustic, biting sarcasm, timely wit, sagacious prescience, and gorgeous, painstakingly executed artwork.

At least, that's what I guess it's supposed to be. It's so damn small I can't read it. Enlarging it merely overpixilates the image, ruining the intended effect.

Thanks, Salon!

Bastards.

Is it just me, or does Lieberman bear an uncanny resemblance to the Wizard of Oz, as manifested in the frightening face behind the bursts of fire at the end of the long hall in Emerald City?

One step forward, 3 back on your formats, Salon.

This is illegible and the enlarge won't work.

Is this the new reach of the Conneticut Insurance lobby ?

Hate, hate, hate the new format. Please give us an option to use the old one. Please.

Not only is the cartoon so tiny it induces eye-strain to read, but it was almost impossible to find! Why can't you give a recognizable icon for the comics features the way you used to?

Tom, Joe isn't a member of that party any more. In a brilliant move, several people joined, voted to change the by-laws, and they voted Joe out of the party.

So, I came up with a TV spot that shows Joe Lieberman walking in to a retaurant. The maître'd says, "Party of one?"

Tom Tomorrow WILL NOT enlarge, althought the other comics do. This is the third time I've written about this, and judging from the comments, I'm not the only one. I would go to Salon Classic to view it, but I can't get that to come up. How do I do that?

in this case more is more.

Have you noticed CNN has fucked up thier front page also?

B.

Can't read the comic. Doesn't resize. Layout sucks. Guess I'll have to wait till tomorrow to read it on Working for Change.

Here's an idea for your next book: "The Very Silly New Format"

You could run it by Joan and the IT guys at Salon and see what they think, but I imagine they'll love it, (except for the size, they'll suggest you reduce it to subatomic particle dimensions so it can better be enjoyed by one cell organisms.)

"Who's There?"

"The deficit."

Now just draw some pictures around that and you can have the next 50 TMW's

Very funny - thanks

Did it really not occur to anyone at Salon to ask a reader if he or she could read the cartoons in the new format? And why in the world would you make someone enlarge what is supposed to be the featured item on any one page? That is just stupid.

Collossal fail on the new format,guys.

This is one reason I didn't renew my premium subscription. That and War Room's new all-Palin/Beck/Taitz-all-the-time format.

...I get an "errors on page" message when I try to enlarge it.

Joan, you hired a bunch of Indian web developers to implement your redesign, didn't you? Shame on you for taking work away from qualified Americans who really need the work to save a few bucks. Of course, like so many others, you're paying the price for it by getting crappy, unusable software that's driving away readers (customers) and hurting your business in return. Or, maybe I'm mistaken.

Take that money you waste on paying that narcissistic old gasbag that all your readers hate, Camille Paglia, and hire some competent people to redo your site.
