My work comp doesn't seem to like the new website. It freezes up IE.
[/ QUOTE ]
Can you open IE and go to the Help menu item and then to the "About Internet Explorer" item from that drop down menu and list for us which version of IE you are browsing the website with?
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm having the exact same problem and my version is IE 6. It loads up the background picture and then IE freezes. I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL to get out of it.
[/ QUOTE ]
You can mark me as having this issue with my work computer as well. Same browser and issue.
Edit: Version number (6.0.2900.5512.xpsp3_gdr.08014-1236)

Still doing it. As well as pics missing from the individual vet reward descriptions... 51, 48 and 39 months to be exact.
Meh. It's okay.

Our apologies for the continuing issues with browsing the new website under Internet Explorer version 6. We're working to resolve the issue. If you want to see the site now, you may consider upgrading IE to version 7 or downloading FireFox, Chrome or any other popular web browsing software.

Fix'd. 
LH: Two suggestions for the server status page:
1. Realphabetize them. There's no obvious order right now.
2. Make the images smaller so you can see all the servers without scrolling. (My resolution is 1280x1024 and I still had to scroll.)
...I forgot what experience means.
As someone else already mentioned, any info on why the Nvidia logo has been replaced with an ATI logo other than ATI paid more money?
With that said, I like it.

Will do, if you will also consider taking my cat that considers litterboxes optional. 
Some of us do not like FireFox nor the tabbed browsing interface/look of IE7. I hope the trouble-shooting moves along and that you'll update us when the fix is found.
And FYI, Safari 3.0.4 (523.12.2) works fine with the new site.

Wow! I love the new website. It's so cool.
A question though: the www.cityofvillains.com/ site currently redirects to the main CoH site, will there eventually be a CoV site again?
[/ QUOTE ]
The main website covers both aspects of the game. We've given anyone who ever had access to both sides, so they are both sides to the same coin that is the City of Heroes franchise.
[/ QUOTE ]
Final proof that the devs hate villains... CoV.com automatically redirects to CoH.com.... muhahaha! Take that, villains, now you all must play and browse under the banner of the Heroes!

Please use this thread to discuss the below announcement
New Website!
The City of Heroes website has an all new look! If you haven't seen it already, please head over to CityofHeroes.com and take a look!
Bookmarks
Please keep in mind that if you have bookmarks to items deep in the CityofHeroes.com website, they will change. So, please visit the new site and update your bookmarks!
[/ QUOTE ]
With all do respect and this is only my opinion of course; it looks amateurish and haphazerdly put together.
The footer bar looks like it's supposed to be center aligned with the page and instead it's aligned left.
The title bar blends terribly in with the background.
The sidebar could use a border around it.
And there's just too much happening in the background, it looks crowded.

I think what LH meant was that if you really want to work with the site you can download firefox temporarily and get rid of it when the site is compatible with IE

In the future, ALL browsers WILL be tabbed. You'll have to switch eventually, and by not switching now, you're only delaying the inevitable.

Umm, well. It's pretty similar to the Guildwars Layout so I guess that's an improvement?
...except it doesn't have an Official Wiki ... and the Studio that's actually doing all the work(Nor-Cal N.C.) now doesn't seem to have it's Logo at the bottom so all you see is the Cryptic label still, which isn't exactly a good idea in the coming year for anyone who agrees with the "predictions" I've made for "them". (I'd get an NCNC label up there Pronto, and shrink that Cryptic one down as small as possible)
Interesting! I was browsing through the new site and at http://www.cityofheroes.com/game_inf..._create_y.html I found this:

Well, I believe this is old text that needs to be updated but at first glance it sounds like an upcoming CoH/CoV merge.
