Blog post you have mentioned was related to much bigger revolution few months ago. We basically
replaced our old theme existing since 90's. I'm not sure what changes you consider to be a
new layout. You can always provide us some feedback via php-webmaster@lists.php.net. Just, please,
make it more constructive than just word "awful".
Regards,
Maciej.

I don't know what you mean by "pop." Are you referring to the coloring switch where
the examples have an actual white background, while the rest of the content is light gray? Because
personally, I find reading dark gray (#333) on light gray (#f2f2f2) is less readable than simply
#fff on #000.
Lacking a better place, I'll leave this feedback:
1. The list of functions for a class should be on the left side, not the right. The left side is
where the (rest of) the navigation is, and having this one navigation element in a completely
different place makes the site less usable.
2. I seem to recall the navigation tree being larger and more prominent (and therefore, easier to
find and click on).
3. Overall, there just seems to be a lot of wasted whitespace (grayspace?) in the new layout.
Compare http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.modify.php
to http://web.archive.org/web/20110717093525/http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.modify.php.
So much more information fits in the browser window with the earlier layout. The blocks of color
serve to separate logical areas of the document.
I mean, don't get me wrong, the new layout is certainly "modern." It looks as though
it just walked out of someone blog or WordPress site, but I don't think that's what you
were going for. (Or is it?)

That post was for a different layout back in November. The widget has been removed.
Also, you hate the awful layout/theme but inwardly you like the 'pop' that examples and
function declarations have, don't you?
