Some interesting ideas there. I like the idea of a 'daytime' and 'more styles' box at the top for listen again rather than just specialist listen agains on the R1 page.

Its still too busy and alot of the content seems to just blend into each other.

[Gamesmaster18993]

I quite like it, but the colours are way too bright. The content on the sites much better as well

[Jono]

I like the colours and I'm sure they will alternate over time. I prefer the orange to the gloomy blue though.

[Gamesmaster18993]

I don't like the blue either, the orange and the green is ok though

[Jono]

Not so much the front page but...

On the DJ mini-sites during Greg in for Scott it currently says 'Scott Mills' next to Greg's picture in black font with no time. Seems to be working on the homepage though.

I notice Greg's picture goes to Scott's mini-site is which is a bit of a pain too. Should really go to Greg's as he's talking about his blog.

That is really strange in my eyes. Why doesn't it say "Greg James - Greg sits in for Scott"? a big "Scott Mills" next to Greg's face is a bit misleading...and honestly: isn't it more important to know who is on-air right now, instead of knowing who would be on-air if the schedule was normal?

If you look at the homepage it does say that, it's just a cock-up on the other pages.

Yeah i agree. It is very misleading. Especially if you dident know who the person was you would start to think that Scott Mills is Greg James.....

Ehm...I don't know whether you maybe misunderstood me, but for me it says "Scott Mills - Greg sits in for Scott"...and I would suggest to put it in another way: "Greg James - Greg sits in for Scott"...

I guess but then Radio 1 like to keep up the brand names - The Chris Moyles show with Scott Mills and The Scott Mills Show with Greg James. Although they've shied away from that in listings.

[Jugalug]

Is there any reason why Radio 1 and 1Xtra seem to now have the same web design when before they were so very different?

[the_grove]

credit crunch...

[Jono]

It's annoying that they persist on just putting Fearne instead of Fearne and Reggie for the Request and Chart Show. Are they trying to tell us something?

Especially as i dont even think Fearne is there today...looking at the webcam!

[JonathanEx]

Yeah, Ferne's off, making it more funny.

[Jono]

There's no on-air image for the Drum n Bass show on both BETA and current.

[James R]

There wasnt for Westwood with Goldfinger on either version of the site

[Jugalug]

There is for Westwood, but they had Westwood.png like the old Westwood.gif, only its Tim_westwood.png.

And there wouldn't be on the Beta if there isn't on the main, because it's exactly the same site, just with different content.

[Jono]

It seems the website is no longer in BETA and it has been rolled on the whole website.

[Guest inxces4308]

Just noticed this......Whats stupid is that when you click on any other pages it goes to the old style pages because they haven't updated other pages (eg. daytime) The navigation background should have atleast of changed on them.

Oh and the text bubble words at the bottom dosent seem to be working.

Try control and F5 because both are working for me?

The text bubble for 'new' is still going to http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/innewmusicwetrust/ though.

[Guest inxces4308]

Appears to be working but Text bubble still isent showing any words for me.......(Attached Image) - Perhaps they just arnt getting any text messages.

Also, i cant really read some of the words on the navigation because the navigation background is too bright. The lines need there opacity lowering so the words can be read!

and......... aswell as this just noticed the old red background is loading, which cuts off mid page. EDIT - as i wrote this, they changed it.

[Jugalug]

The red background didn't really cut off - if you remember, it had the crowd on it, but you couldn't see it with the wider page, so it appeared to suddenly go black.

[James R]

Just been on the 1xtra pages and in Ronnie Herels page on the right hand side they have put in a tracklisting box from last.fm. Nihals page has not got this on.
