    New Skins
    I know it might take some getting used to. I know Rick wants all of us to try this for a week and then see. Well Quite honestly I do not like the new setup. It was better the way it was before.

    Personally, I do not like the new setup and cannot wait a week.

    It hurts the eyes. Good thing I have sunglasses.

    And I do not like the way my answers do not appear at the top of the list they way they used to. It makes navigating the site way too hard.

    I have decided to go to my profile and change it back to the default style.

    If this new format were to become permanent with no option to change I think I would have to post/answer less.

    Why?

    Yeah, I agree that it's a little bright. I'll try toning it down a little in the coming months.

    I just put it back to the original skin. A lot easier now. Thanks, it is good to know that we had that option to go back.

    It is bright to the sleep deprived eye. I just don't like the way that it on the top of the page it had the number of the page you wanted to go to and "last". It's not there now... I can't get on here as much as I would like to and that always helped on the threads that got more responses than the email like would take you to. I do know it's still at the bottom of the page but I miss it being at the top.

    I don't like it that much either. The old way was much easier to navigate through. But, it is still new and I guess it does take some time to get use to. It won't make me read/post less, but it is annoying at times.

    Me neither.
    I preferred it how it was, and never saw any fault in it so I can't quite understand why it was changed :(
    I never complained.

    Well, I went back to the "original." I just could not navigate it and I really don't have all the time in the world to learn the new way. I have limited time here now, so the "old" way is easier for me.

    If it ain't broke why fix it?

    I did not think there was anything wrong with the old way.

    I don't like change, much.

    Hey guys, This really should be discussed under the announcement thread Rick started.
    https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/announ...led-36010.html
    I've suggested this be combined with that or closed.

    It did make me leave the post the first couple of times I got on. I do not have much time to spend on here. It was user friendly when I first joined the post. I was able to navigate around quite quickly. It took me some time to get this one worked around. Before it was right there when you logged on. NOW With the last threads on the side of the page, seems a waste of space. I could not find the rest of the threads. Ask... shows you the place to find topics. Answers... are all the latest threads. Actually, it does not make quick sense. The other was easier, I am not saying that because I was used to it. I am saying it as when I joined, I had no problem navigating. When it changed, I did.
    How do you get back to the original?

    Thanks for the sunglasses reminder Pumpkin!! I went back to the old "skin" as the new one really hurt my eyes, and made it difficult to read.

    Also, I noticed you have to go to the bottom of the pages with answers to find out the page #. Shouldn't it be at the top also?
