The new design is live!

For a summary of what's new, read this article.

Note: the work safe mode still works, however the work safe mode skins are temporarily disabled until they are re-developed.

Comments and feedback are welcome. In fact, your comments would also be appreciated in the comments section of the article itself.

I like it. The new color schemes are a little easier on the eyes, less high contrast.

grand slam!

only question, i'm on a 19" screen at work. there is about 2 inches of blank space on both sides of the website. is this a computer setting thing - all other websites are from side to side. i haven't checked at home yet which is a 15" screen.

The design of the new site is more narrow than the previous design but it still behaves the same, meaning it will "float" centered on your screen. So the wider your screen, the more blue space you'll see on the right and to the left of the Truckblog content.

Unlike some other sites you visit, Truckblog will not stretch to the entire width of your screen. This is a design choice so that we can control our content.
