With the old format, I used to read a subject that sounded interesting to me and ask them to notify me or not on further responses to that topic. Now you don't have that. Also, 30 pp for one topic? If I want the updates, I can get them. I don't want to have to go through 30 pp to get them. Also, I don't know whether it's my eyes, my computer or what; but if I go to read some topics with several pp, I can't tell which page I'm on. By the time I get to the bottom, I forgot which page I was on and where to go next. The arrow doesn't always work. Boo hoo.

Cathy, have you ever had an ergo mouse? They are a God send your index finger and thumb do the mousing for you, I've been using them for 15 years.

I do not like having the old postings still on here. I look for new items, not the same ones I have already read.

The way I see it, it looks like a main complaint is not finding the NEW TOPICS. (and by the way I don't see it listed under What's New....when I click What's New all the topics that have something/anything new added to them are displayed). We're looking for a "one click" that brings up JUST NEW TOPICS.

Me too. I really liked the old software and I do adapt to change, but this is not user friendly. I guess I can suffer through it, because I do not want to give this up.

Hang in there folks, it will get better. The more you look around, the more you will feel at home. QuilterNan posted how to fix the page size and I don't have to scroll to the right all the time. It looks like the old format now. I'm so Happy!

I personally liked the old format. I could get right on and, almost always, read all the information. I must say now, I don't stay on long, too many places to go. As an older person, I don't like change and the simpler the better. I guess this means I will be spending more time at my machine and less time on here. I truly learned sooooooooooo much from all the quilters when it was the old way.

Go to the bottom of any page, click on "Archives" and you will see the sections of the board listed. Click on what you want to read "Main", "Pictures", "Chit-Chat", etc and you will see all of the topics, in order and the best thing is that they change color after you read them so you can keep track easily.
