Yes, Blaine, I agree.

I think it has become over-designed.  I prefer the way it looked ten
years ago.  As a professional journal it shouldn't need all kinds of
glitz.  It's one thing to make things "colorful" and not-boring, but
I think it has gone down hill.  Most of the other ACM members I talk to
at work seem to make similar comments.
