Try Out New Homepage Color Options Here!
Posted Sep 12th 2007 11:48PM by Lisa Edwards
We received a lot of negative feedback from you about the color of the new Homepage. You told us that the new color options were too neutral, washed out and a radical (but not welcome) departure from the familiar "AOL Blue".
So we took your feedback to heart and went to work on a new set of color options that features a more familiar blue as the default color and a set of more saturated (some might say "juicy") color options for you to choose from.
But before we go ahead and make another change, we want to get your opinion on the new Homepage color options. Check out the new AOL Homepage color options and then let us know what you think. Do you love them? Do you hate them? Or do you not care that much? We want to know!
You can go back to the current the AOL Homepage color options at any time.

61. You mentioned that you added new colors but they don't look any different. I agree, they look too washed out and I would much prefer a deep navy blue, a deep colored eggplant color etc. Please make the colors a deeper, richer color. Many thanks

62. I clicked on link for new colors and can't see anything different, i.e. you still have the same old, pastel, washed out colors. Please make the colors a deeper, richer color, i.e. deep navy blue, eggplant etc. Please make the colors darker and richer. Many thanks

66. Thanks for the opportunity for imput. I am struck by the fact that you seem insensitive to people with less than perfect vision. I would like some color choices with high contrast so that I don't strain my eyes trying to read the print. Thanks again!

67. I LOVE the new colors that you offer, esp. Peony. My Screen savor is a giant pink peony and so it 's nice to have an AOL screen that matches perfectly. I also love the new layout. I do wish that the news screen wouldn't flip so fast. I'm not a speed reader.

69. I hate what you are doing. I play games and it is will not accept my password. Also, I do not need all this extra stuff. Some do, let them have it, leave me alone.

72. I do not like the new home page. I want the old one back. This has lead to unnecessary confusion. When something works well, why mess it up.

73. I have been an AOL customer for many years. I am still using AOL 7.0 because I have an old computer.
The AOL 7.0 screen has not changed for several weeks. No new news flashes.
Do you intend to not support AOL 7.0 any more with updated?

75. AOL just sort of generally sux. Your "news" is usually a day late and a dollar short and everything seems to be larded with extra marketing and bull puckey. The only reason I don't change carriers is it would inconvenience me and those who have contacted me for a long time to do so. Even free AOL is so far behind the curve it's laughable.

77. How would I know about the new home page. I use a MAC and I have been locked on a two week out of date page for weeks. When are you going to fix the MAC interface?
