I've tried so hard to get used to this. I can't do it. I just can't participate in the community if it's going to look like this. Maybe I'm an old 32 years old...

Still not thrilled with it, but am starting to get used to it, except for my eyes, that is.
That's the thing that bugs me the most. The light blue on white thing- what a joke. And those skinny light grey lines that sort of separate things (but not well) instead of boxes. Who designed this? Is this site a project for someone who graduated from web design program lowest in their class? Why haven't these problems been addressed yet. Why is all we've heard, "hope you get used to it"? Why are Facebook, eBay and other sites iPhone-user-friendly but still easy to look at on computers as well and yet we're stuck with this literal eye sore?
And we pay good money to come here- don't forget that. Argh! Rant!

Brian, you are right. We do pay good money to come here. I am still coming here, but certainly not as often. These "old" eyes just can't take it anymore.

I year you, PJFofN. The thing that's frustrating is we are told to post our thoughts here but then little has changed and the feedback is minimal. I guess it doesn't really matter much what we think. When a person feels ignored, the relationship grows cold. That may be how it goes for me with this site which is a real bummer.

This site is analogous to how I feel when I put my underwear on backwards by accident. Maybe i'll get used to it. Maybe my junk will just be squashed and lopsided for awhile.

People were passing around a link to instructions for changing the colours and stuff on Firefox, but I don't know where it is. Can anyone help? Thank you!
To be very honest, this new forum is giving me a headache. I tried Firefox, Chrome - still gives me a headache.
Did you try that link I posted above? It works pretty well. It fixes the visual problem pretty effectively. It's not perfect, but a lot better.
I am not on my home computer, so will try it when I am back home. But its interesting that you need an extension to make this forum more readable.
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
I heard Jack Norris knows some things for fix this

When i click on "Recent Discussions" which, best I can tell, mimics what the old "new posts" link did....it is very annoying that all stickies/announcements show up first regardless of whether or not they have new entries.

You can dismiss them, so they only show when new comments are made. I don't remember exactly where the function is, but try hovering over diffferent parts of the entry and the function should show.
EDIT: Hover next to the star and the gear saying Options will appear - click and you'll see Dismiss - click that and voila!! The Announcement becomes just another thread that appears only when new comments are made.

Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

That was like that on the old forum too though, wasn't it. To me the whole left hand side is redundant.

When you do the thing with Firefox when you get home you will find that the left hand bar is gone! Much better!

There are some options up by your name at the top of the page inside each forum.... I really haven't played around with it so haven't quite figured it out, but I have seen the options to view your bookmarked threads, and mark all viewed, etc...
