Hi there!
I´m working on the new version of this site and I would like some feedback. Do you like better the new site or the older one? And why?
Some of the people I know that I´ve asked for their opinion, told me that they liked the older site better, but couldn´t exactly tell me why. So I don´t know if they just prefer the old one because they are just used to it.
The older one maybe looks faster because it is cached, in the new one I´m working in a dev version, without any optimization.
Thank you!

The sites are visually
The sites are visually similar but on the old site the main column with news is much wider that the right sidebar. On the new site the columns are equal with and the main column becomes less visually prominent and is no longer the main focus when looking at the page. I would consider decreasing the width of the right column but not as much as the old site (which I think is too narrow).
They may also prefer the recent publication layout of the old site which presents fewer new publications but provides more information.
Thank you nevets!
Thanks nevets!
I didn´t thought about the recent publications block... yes, it provides more information and I´ve removed it. Maybe I should put it back...
MANY thanks for the insight!
ps. I´ve decreased the size of the right column, I think you´re right, it visually "competes" with the content column.
