I took part in a online survey (sad isnt it) well they asked me anyway, i cant even remember if there was a prize at stake for entering (im easy like that) and they were asking about what i thought and stuff, and how accessible etc. So I knew a revamp was imminent.

And herre it is

It is AMAZING, Moyles looks the business at the front there doesnt he?

Interesting positioning there... I thought this was the 21st century, but I must be wrong because the BBC still puts the only black guy and the wannabe black guy at the back... are we trapped in the 1970s again?

Weird that Sara Cox is not in that photo, considering that she's supposed to be the seecond highest paid DJ at radio 1.

Also Demonhorse, your "1970's" comment is possibly the most absurd thing I've heard in a long while. The order is based on "prestige of show".

That's odd because your Publicity Stunt comment in the other thread was the most stupid post I have read on here... um.. EVER...

If it was on prestige of the show, why the hell is Vernoff Kay there at all?

By the way, Re: my publicity stunt comments, I wasn't the first to suggest that, it was someone else (their name escapes me now, and I can't be arsed to go trawling through the pages to find it).

I like that picture. Chris looks lovely - as does Edith. I'm more concerned at how attractive I am finding Westwood, but I'll get over it.

Aren't those pictures just the pictures that they use on there own websites or when it says on air now and a little pic of the DJ?
Not toos ure i like it but i expect i will get used to it (I'll have to!) Does the text bit show texts or just how many they are getting in a minute, not sure whether mine is working that is why i ask

Yeah it's right back to the seventies isn't it, Fat blokes and Women were also centre stage back then wern't they.

( Regarding Scott Mills, high likelihood of him being a "gay" and therefore surely he should be at the back also ?)

Bag Balls is spot on in his comments, always, end of story

In fact Vernon should be at the front, the rest are either black/wannabe black, non-english, gay, fat or female.

I think the Queen should be at the front, it being the BBC !

It's kind of crappy that Sara Cox who is a far superior DJ than Vernon Kay, and has also been at R1 for longer, is not in that picture.

Sara Cox is by far the worst DJ on Radio 1 (in my opinion.)

Ive noticed Virgin Radio changed their website recently to a "less busier" look, it seems Radio 1 have followed the same prinicpal. I like how you're able to move parts of the website around, it seem more user friendly and the uploading of texts is also.

Websites seem to be moving with the times, in line with the likes of myspace and youtube. I however dont like that line up of DJs, Vernon Kaye ?

Fowler- your singles are up to date but the date is not are they ? you state 8/9, thats a month ago, if you are being topical then the date is important

quite so, I like my mugs to be lined up with the handles pointing to the door, and the pictures of the chuckle brothers facing front, it's not anal, at all, I think you would agree

I never noticed that you could move the sections, love it, learn something new everyday - and I do! :D

I do like the new site and it is keeping up with the times but it just doesnt work with the Chris Moyles mini site due to the colours,

Also as they look as if their keeping in with the web 2.0 styling and fasion (including the photo gallery near the bottom) I would have liked to see that they made the Dj pictures 'clickable' so that you can go straight to a popular minisite such as Moyles, also would have been good if they were 'web 2.0' scrollable with the growing and shrinking of the dj's as you move over them, oh well
