Did the steamgifts UI just shrink?

For me, that green box "enter giveaway" search box, # of entries and # of comments section underneath every giveaway game's box seems smaller. and my browser is still on 100% normal view.

Yeah it's a little more difficult for me to read now... Had to zoom in on the page, too much being squashed and far too much dead space.

Ads don't fill all the dead space? I see the ones spliced into the giveaways list and the one above the search bar, but there's still tons of dead space to the sides of the page unless my browser natively blocked any that sit there.

It's smaller because I disabled all advertising on giveaways today. When ads are disabled the left column is smaller because it no longer needs to accommodate the ad units. The only pages on our site with the wider left column are those with ads. Keep in mind the ads will likely return in a day or two, it's simply a test for now as I try to debug issues that are potentially influencing our ad revenues.
