"Organic" is a meaningless buzzword. Nothing of the design conveys anything that Firefox excels in or Mozilla.org stands for. Maybe this is the mainstream taste of youngsters with even uglier Myspace pages. It is a pathetic failure for a webpage like mozilla.org. Nothing at all would have been better than this insult of the eye and the mind. I agree with JP — this design is ugly, without concept, and unnecessary. “Organic” is a meaningless buzzword.

Form over function, prettyness over usefulness ... is it really necessary to take that road with Firefox and its web sites? I dont want to see totally unmotivated balloons and little animals in trees on a browser website just because it is "pretty". Baroque Kitsch for the masses designed by overpaid kids with an Apple computer ... does Mozilla.org have to join this cult and spend money on it?

Honestly, the new page is looking good. Sounds like a step up for the developers at Mozilla. Honestly, the new page is looking good.
