Okay, so, the other day I was thinking "cripes, there's still a lot to do, and I haven't even had anyone test the new design yet!" And then I realized "wait, you're supposed to have people test things before they're done. That's the whole point of having beta testers."
So, I'm putting the call out for MoFos who want a big ol' peek at the new site before it launches. The plan is to cut a couple of corners and go with largely superficial facelifts on a few secondary pages/areas so that we can get this thing live this month, before the Oscars, which means possibly having a few of you testing the new design as early as next week.
I can only let a few people do this, so don't be offended if you don't get picked! Tons of you guys would be super helpful, I have no doubt, so if you don't get chosen it's not a reflection on you at all.
Here's what I'll need from any potential tester:
So, who wants to help and see all this stuff a little earlier than everyone else?

Here's what I'll need from any potential tester:
- Willing to keep specifics to themselves, obviously.
- Willing to deal with some things being a little broken for awhile.
- Willing to put a fair bit of time into just poking around randomly.
- Willing to put a fair bit of thought into the feedback they give.
- Willing to swap lots of messages, or even IMs (or perhaps a Skype call) to pin things down more quickly and precisely.
