Yep. Flash is unnecessary to these strips. Give me the original style back...

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot read "Sunday Strips" anymore... For some reason I only see three panels. Each time I click on one of the three panels, it takes a few seconds, then the complete cartoon shows (eight panels). Then, suddenly - and before I am able to enjoy the whole thing - the first three panels pop back up again. THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stop complaining about the new site !!!!
As usual, users are *frustrated* when something changes, of course the site was first in BETA quality, and two dilbert site could have been used, as commented below... nevermind, I was frustrated not being able to read dilbert strips for a week, now it's working.
Definitely, there are two problems with the new site.
1) responsiveness, optimisations, lag, server bandwith, call it the way you want, but it deserves some performance tuning AND the people who sold you this site HAVE TO do something about it.
2) FLASH : it's a technological choice, maybe it was not really needed !! except if you wanted to make your fan life less easy, or make it harder to save strips on user's desktops.
maybe it explains a lot of frustration with the users. but sure it explains why the new site is so slow !
So, except for the strips in flash, the new design is really NICE, AND, the MASHUP IDEA is GREAT.

Great strips, been reading them for years, _but_ I am not happy with the new layout. Sorry, but the flash player is broken, heavy weight, and not cross platform friendly, (unix, mobile 'phone and old computers all do not work anymore).
Even on a modern Window$ machine, it takes several seconds of blinking and flashing to show the strip.
Even worse is the Sunday strip is chopped off after the top row, no amount of scrolling gets me to the punch line :(

Really, rally do not like the new site. Clunky, difficult to navigate. Colour does not add value. And for us poor souls who are often accessing the site from remote, basic and hence slow places in this world - it is now a pain for absolutely no added value.
One of the joys of the former site was its simplicity and very elementalism. Dilbert, to the point - nothing added, nothing taken away.
Delude yourslef that you have joined the Web 2.0 generation if you wish - just please give me easy access to Dilbert Classic. For that matter, why don't you take a leaf out of (and learn from) a certain major brand and offer 2 products (Dilbert Classic and Dilbert 2.0)?
