So is the new site the new site (from the mystery link), or is it the new site I get when I go to the old link?

On the home page of the original nonbeta site,

We've been hard at work on a web player that allows you to skip songs rather than use the current "PSD" (Play Something Different) function. We're also the first station anywhere to offer lossless FLAC streaming on a DJ-mixed radio stream.

Click here to check it out!

A big thank you to all of you who used our previous beta player. Your feedback was invaluable. That player has now been discontinued.

Rant
Serif font is nice and readable but the bold isn't bold enough. The M.O. around here is to bold the part of the previous post that we're specifically talking about, so it's sort of important (to me, anyway) /rant

Rave
Searching seems to be much faster or it could be my imagination /rave

Rant
I decided the "Start Listening" button at top right might be a popup player that's different from the play button that's across the bottom of the screen. It is not, but it does immediately start playing, out of sync with the window that's open, playing, and minimized. /rant

The "start listening" button issue was probably related to how the site was loading when I first posted the link. I fixed that this afternoon, so I'll bet that doesn't happen again.

We'll see about a bolder bold. Though that one sure pops nicely on my phone screen.

on a mobile browser (chrome) on a Samsung so, the right side wraps to the edge display and cuts off the last couple characters. works fine if you rotate to landscape mode.

I'm not super fond of the design - looks a bit like the tacky 1990s web pages, but that's not that critical.

I preferred the beta player slideshow. This one's info thing in the right corner is intrusive. I like that it auto-hides (I'd make it happen sooner) but I'd like to be able to click it off. Maybe give it a clear background. I liked the way it was easy to rate a song in the beta player without turning off the slideshow. And it would be nice to turn off the transition effects. I don't like that zoomy thing.

I miss PSD, but I'm sure there were good reasons for dropping it.

Looking forward to exploring the rest of the features. Thanks for all you do, Bill.

Right-clicking the image allows you to add a title, caption, and link but I couldn't see how to modify the dimensions or view/modify the HTML.
