I am trying to quote mcdaniel023 but unable to. That is exactly how I feel. I know its all new and i wish more people have given it a chance.
How do I quote replies? I tried but " you must have 10 characters keeps coming up" ??

If they could have only done this in small baby steps instead of completely redoing everything that we are used to. Maybe just change one thing at a time to give us all a chance to get used to it before moving on to another change. These changes have been extreme and has only made everyone frustrated.

Would also like to know how I get my signature to show up again. I can click on the link when I post a response and it gives me a blank page with my signature on it. How do I get it to show up on my posts???????

At the minimum, there should be precise directions on "HOW TO" do everything on this board, AND it should be on the first page that you see when you sign in each & every time.

I hate that someone sent me a PM and I can't return a reply b/c they have to many in their PM's.

Well, I would LOVE to show you how nicely my little Olson fits in the cabinet I found today, along with the other cabinet I got at the same time, but I CAN'T GET THE *%)#&$!$@!!!! photos to load like they used to because IN SPITE OF FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS it keeps telling me they are TOO BIG, TOO BIG, TOO BIG. So no photos, not of that, not of the fabric I wanted help with, or the great piece of jewelry I found made of pressed flowers to use on my bags, etc. And this background hurts my eyes. Oh yeah, wasn't supposed to complain about that. And if you never saw me on here before....TOUGH. I've been here, but now it's not fun anymore.

The one thing that bugs me is that when I am finished reading a post, it doesn't go away like it did on the old system. I've tried marking the entire forum as read, but it still comes back. I'm sure there is a way to do this or a setting change I can make, but I sure as heck can't figure it out. I've already posted this to admin, but haven't heard back.

I am not going to leave, but I won't be spending nearly as much time here. I am sad that I have to spend so much time trying to just find my way around instead of enjoying everyone's work and friendships.
My thoughts as well, along with not knowing which topics I have read - nothing changes on the topic once I've looked at it so I keep scrolling through trying to figure it out. Why can't it change color as simply as it did before?
We had the simplest most effective layout for our main topics from all the boards I'v looked at, now we have the most ineffective cumbersom layout. PLEASE FIX - GO BACK TO THE IDEAL which is what so many have been telling you from day 1 of this new look.

okay, i have to share one thing that helps.... it is so slow to get from one place to another, but ... i did find a button on the bottom gray/brown bar and here (above the quick reply box) that says "Top" ... at least we can get to a button to get us to the top of the page quickly (which i couldn't do before), so that we can choose a new button to get lost again... if they're gonna do something about the color, how about pale pink for new topics, pale yellow for msgs, pale blue for resources, pale green for live chat... easier on the eyes and we would be able to see where the heck we are when in a specific area...right now, it all looks alike and i keep losing the little bit i've found...
