I doubt that our complaints will change anything after all the work and money that likely went into the change, but I agree with you. I think it's a little silly to be a retrogrouch about web design, but I personally preferred the old site to the current one--even the last iteration I found much more usable. But I also always access it from a desktop and I imagine a growing portion of the business on the site is being done from mobile which it now handles much better. Oh well :/
