It probably won't work to right-click and reload. You need to mark the url and hit enter.

I saw the website had changed its style and was like, wtf? Looking forward to spreadsheet comparing last to this.

Update is great but are you open to constructive criticism about the new site layout? :mrgreen:

Oh wow. If its the whole 10000, then you may want some help. I'd be happy to help (I just don't want to make the whole video myself), though I'm not sure what I could do.

Font is too big, IMO. Also I think a sortable list like They Shoot Pictures Don't They would do better than just having a big list on one page.

But update is awesome.

Much thanks, Henrik, and to those who have assisted and lent their time since the last update. As usual, lots to peruse and enjoy.

I'm not going to start a new Summary thread in the Critics Lists forum just yet. I know stevie added a number of lists to the existing one, so it will be a matter of sifting through all the lists in that thread, checking off those that have been added with the new update and then starting up a new one. We gots time for that. :D

My eyes are very tired since a few years back and need the bigger font. I made a beta version of the new site and the feedback was overall positive. http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/forums/vi ... f=2&t=4278
Before I got problems with the eyes/headache, I would have agreed with you though. I want to see as much information as possible on one page. But you can always zoom out the pages in your web browser.

I've done a similar comparison for Top 1000 songs and seems there should be around 118 switching out. I say should because I believe my counts are off by 1 with an extra song leaving compared to what I've listed as entering. Please let me know if you can find my error. Also note that UNLIKE the albums list above these ones are based off the OFFICIAL 2015 update, not the inofficial 2016 one.

Edit: I found it, #549 Elbow - One Day Like This
