Hello once again. Today marks our tenth major design change in our nine year history. This change is all about establishing and strengthening the site’s role in providing you with Simpsons news, by giving you a more corporate, professional look that you would expect from a news-focused website. Since Simpsons Channel took an all-news focused format in 2002, the site has come from strength to strength and this design hopes to continue the tradition. As you can see we’ve kept things similar to before, but have given you more room to breathe. We’re sure you’ll love this design just as much as the last one even if you weren’t tired of its colorful flavor; it’s simply a directional change I needed to make. You can leave your comments and suggestions via the comment form attached to this post.

Welcome to your brand new Simpsons Channel. This year on December 17 this site will be celebrating eight years online and what better way to mark the occasion than with a new design to start the month.

The new look has been in progress over the last month and has been designed to keep the top stories on the main page for longer. This means that episode news which is usually relevant to the day is kept on its own rotation cycle. I’m also convinced you’ll love our new color scheme as we end our four year run of blue designs. The site has been tested in all browsers and is optimized for viewing on machines with cleartype font smoothing activated.

Despite the two column format on the main page, all news will be archived and headlined together. That’s all there is to it. I’ve kept things familiar enough for you to find your way around, so take a look and be sure to leave feedback.

Welcome to a new-look Simpsons Channel. You’ll notice the changes we’ve made today aren’t too major, which I’ve done because we’re all still fond of the previous design. The main reason for the changes are to fix the space issues we had with the site’s previous form. You’ll notice we’ve expanded the width of the site and those still using a resolution of 800*600 or less will now see a horizontal scrollbar. This gives us more room for longer headlines, and stories which are easier to read and more in-depth. The sideways navigation is no more, which is another change I’ve been wanting to make for a while. Otherwise the site’s exactly how you remember it from its previous design which had been online since December 2003. And now we’re more committed to bringing you the latest Simpsons news as it arrives. Enjoy!

Hey visitors! Today is the seventh birthday of The Simpsons Channel. On this day in 1997, the site was opened by Brian Chen as a links portal where visitors could find sites based on the content they requested. We’ve come a long way since then, and while this year’s celebration is a low-key event, it doesn’t change anything. The site in its current form is at peak popularity, bypassing the 1999 era when web news was frequent and competitive. Last week I renewed our domain right through to December 2005, so we’ll at least be around for another year, and who knows what’s in store until then.

The Simpsons Channel wishes all of our visitors a happy new year. 2004 is here and 2003 is now just a memory. It was a fairly big year in Simpsons news, with the Simpsons becoming the longest running prime-time comedy as well as celebrating their 300th episode. British Prime Minister Tony Blair made headlines (and still is) with his appearance on the show this year, while several Emmy award wins were celebrated. The third season finally arrived on DVD, and The Simpsons Hit And Run was a video game that we can all be proud of. We hope this year is just as eventful in the world of Simpsons, and wish that you can join us along the journey.

The staff of The Simpsons Channel would like to wish all our regular and first-time visitors a safe and Happy Christmas and all the best in 2004! May all your Christmas wishes come true, and be sure to take care on this very special day tomorrow. We’ll of course be taking the day off, as should the media, but we’ll be back with any new headlines by Saturday.

Welcome to The Simpsons Channel version 8. Today is our sixth birthday and we thought we’d commemorate it with a change in design. We’ve pretty much stuck with what’s worked for us in terms of features and colour scheme, and are still very much committed to bringing you the latest Simpsons news first. Basically I wanted to do something that wasn’t put together in two days, as our last design was. We’ve renewed our domain until December 2004 and intend to be in business until then and possibly beyond.

As we approach our 6th birthday at The Simpsons Channel, I thought we could reflect on the past year. On this day in 2002 I took a gamble to take the site in a huge new direction. Once being a haven for links and web news, in the space of 24 hours we rebranded ourselves as a site offering the latest show news. This was to be a trial for two months, which would result in closure had it not been a success. The gamble paid off. One year on, 410000 visitors later, the site has a following that we had not experienced in the first 5 years. A year ago I questioned renewing the domain. This year, there’s no maybe about it. You’ve kept me updating for 365 days without losing interest. Here’s to another year. The Simpsons Channel. Your source for Simpsons news.

It’s that time of the year already! Adam, Eric, and the rest of the staff of The Simpsons Channel (we speak on behalf of Brian, Bob, and Ryan) would like to wish all our regular and first-time visitors a safe and Happy Christmas and all the best in 2003! May all your Christmas wishes come true, and take care on this very special day tomorrow.
