Mine was like that, "hate it" and I was trying to see "Boo Boo" 's picture, which I can't see and I accidently clicked on the arm part which I could see and it brought me back to the old format. ARGGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I'm not to fond of the new main page, myself. The sublists won't stay collapsed if I refresh the page, and I really liked being able to see the newest post in each forum, like the old layout showed. I think the new layout could be good with a few tweaks, but so far, I'm not thrilled. It's a little too busy for me.

Don't quite understand why the new magazine thing is the focus of the website.

I can bounce it back and forth at this point----manuevering through the new format, was disappointing. But there have been other changes over the last couple of years I didn't like and I have adjusted!!!

I do think it will limit discussions-----when you only see a few of the current threads as opposed to the newest per forum.

Maybe the goal is to take the site to a magazine type of thing as opposed to a general support board. Hate to see that happen, but I am old and set in my ways!!! LOL

Everyone stay close, when I can no longer come back to this old format I will be lost, and hollering for help!!!

Not sure if this helps, guys, but when you first go to the site, you are on the new page with the new format. A lot of message boards have a "landing page" like that. Then, if you click on the "forum" tab in the upper left of the page, that will take you to the forums in the format we all know and love. The "home" tab takes you back to the initial "landing page".

Oh, I -REALLY- don't like this. I'm here to talk to others, not read some articles. Bring back the 'normal' forum page, and fix the 'My Account' button please.

Well, it is Alex's board, not ours, and he can set it up however he wants. If he opts to put it back the old way, then he will take care of it. But if this is the new format, options are a little more limited. I would start by asking in a nicer way, and maybe explain to him why it bothers you outside of "I'm here for this not that".

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
