[Much has been written](https://techcrunch.com/2021/08/11/twitter-redesigns-website-with-new-font-less-clutter-and-high-contrast-features/) about Twitter’s new redesign, but most of these articles didn’t have what I think would be most interesting - before and after screenshots! Below is my attempt at filling this gap where the left screenshot is of the older/original version and the right screenshot is the new design 🙂 **Profile Page:** ![kirupa_profile](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/5/52548b5de1fbd405c9597bc02c8755077dd77539.jpeg) ![nasa_profile](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/2/23599b66f56931f39ecaa8997a797638d736a569.jpeg) **Tweet:** ![nasa_tweet](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/0/0a9c2fb1250e8ebe044d872bc82a4ee3ff00b192.jpeg) **Display Settings:** ![display_settings](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/5/5b8eec9a476255ad8aa284cf18a6ac1a75203bab.jpeg) ![display_settings_dark](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/8/812e44f1104c2585daed623c073e7d5cb941eeaf.jpeg) ![display_settings_dim](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/e/ec2e92760b955816fe62cbf539b613cfdd063798.jpeg) **Trending Topic:** ![tokyo_news_light](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/8/848a92ce7cc7be78a7d321a4e467ec6fd8b84665.jpeg) ![tokyo_news_dark](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/9/9757720dbe3af19c01549bc03e14e17086fb2e63.jpeg) Hopefully this helps you all better visualize the buckets of ink that have been spilled in describing this visual change 😛 Cheers, Kirupa ---

Also, what Twittr (yes, that is the correct spelling) looked like when it was [first previewed](https://techcrunch.com/2006/07/15/is-twttr-interesting/): ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/kirupa/original/2X/0/0c19aa2182a60dcfdbd9dedc72af90689b1a0b41.jpeg) ([more where this came from](https://www.bustle.com/articles/31726-happy-anniversary-twitter-heres-how-twitters-look-has-changed-from-2006-to-right-now-photos)) ---

Neat, thanks. Odd how they have gone for sharper, higher contrast for the main pages (in light mode anyway) but the opposite on the settings pages which are now greyer and blurrier ---

They certainly did make some interesting tradeoffs. We will see how this evolves over their upcoming releases 😀 ---

Is this only color difference i can see if i’m not wrong to catch. That’s good and also it depends what thing you are comfortable with… ---

There are some additional subtle changes with horizontal lines being removed and a new font, but the biggest change is the color as you say 🥳 ---

I think the green puke logo is due for a comeback.
