I just unsubscribed. Don't like it at all- anyone else?

Nope - half the text isn't readable anyhow with that ridiculous "magazine online" format - even with large, good res screens.

I tried it in 3 different browsers, it is impossible to use.

Left at standard size the text is too small and pale to read, try to zoom and the page is too large and keeps moving around.

It's a complete waste of time.

And will someone at Zen note that white text on a lime green background (see bottom of page 5) is unreadable! Idiotic.

Hi there,

Zen has received a handful of comments regarding the usability of the newsletters. We've taken all the feedback on board, have reviewed our software, and as of next month will be using a software that will provide a much improved user experience.

Thank you for your feedback and for using Zen! We hope you'll like next month's edition.

Yes the colours are just horrific very hard to read if fact I just deleted it!

Already unsubscribed so it's a moot point - it'd have been how hard for you guys to test this before you did it?!? how many staff does Zen have again... hundreds? Shouldn't be beyond you guys!

Good news... not.

The promised "improvement" is not there in this months so it's still unreadable, so I opened it (still get it sent to me it seems), saw Tang, couldn't read the text clearly and deleted the email.

I just delete it, unread. As of about 4 months ago all I see (on my phone) is white "paper". Can't even see an unsubscribe button and I can't be bothered logging onto my profile and all that jazz. I did think of emailing Zen but life's too short. Surely they know it is unreadable? As someone said, didn't they test it? The technical guys would have been shot if they'd done something as shoddy as this. Different standards for marketing though?.

I imagine the marketing lot are working on huge screens, probably on a mac because they all still believe they're superior for graphics work. All totally oblivious to the typical screen setup outside that little bubble.
