Have you seen Google's new look [themes]?

More info here: http://www.google.com/help/ig/art/index.html#

It seems that they want to be more graphically appealing, similar to what ASK.com has been doing.

What do you think? Like it?

    Yes, I have seen Google's new look and I thought I was on a dummy page...it threw me off a little. However, I do like it. I am a big fan of change. I have to admit I have never been to ASK.com.

    Cheers!

    I think the Google themes is something of a distraction, customization of some areas just draws out the choice of artists... and personalization could lead to a quick "Myspacing" of Google where everything looks like a slap against my creative side.

    In online design and usability, sometimes what you don't know really can hurt you! I would hate to see the functionality of a site suffer from bad graphical themes, and some of the templates already become hard to interpret information with.

This forum is unmoderated, but please keep discussion courteous and not too far off topic.
