    You took the words right out of my mouth. I used to look at the unread topics each day, but I haven't found a satisfactory substitute. There are too many topics to wade through now and I don't want to spend that much time at it. I'm looking only at the digest now, but even there the topics are repetitive from one day to the next. It's very disappointing. While there are some features I like very much, none make up for this one major pain in the rear.

    It's a bother to have to scroll thru many pages to find new listings.

    I agree with you. I liked the emails that were sort of "here's what to read"! So many tics are the same from day to day, I only check once in a while. I must be really dense as I can see others like it.

    Agreed, and well said.

    THANKS Terry, Hugs for helping me get to my main reason for looking here. Like a lot of others, I'm still having trouble getting around this new set-up. Don't spend a much time as I did with the old site and really miss saying "hello" to all the newbies.
    Blessings and "Happy Holidays" to you and all the quilting family here.!!!!!

    I just want to say "Many Thanks". The titles are now changing color and staying that way. It really helps and I appreciate it.

    I still hate it, can't for the life of me think why change was necessary.

    I am with you, justme. It makes me sad that I am too dense to navigate in a useful way. I have enjoyed reading the board so a long time. When I stop by now I try to pick up a few new threads. Sure miss my bookmarks, saw someone said there is a way but I can't even find the directions to save anything and sure can't find the old ones. Looks like many have figured it out. Thought I had a smidgen of tech savvy but am proved wrong.

    Do not like the "new and improved" version.
