Any change was going to have people who liked and people who did not. I don't mind the beige but the font is more difficult to read. I like the different sections but dislike the moving ads on the right. I am however baboozled by those who say that we will be missing out by having different sections. How hard is it to click on the different areas?

i don't bother looking anywhere else - never did and that was always my argument whenever discussions came up about moving maids' threads... if you're not interested in the subject of a thread just don't open it - simple !!

I know many of you like the different section but I for one liked it all together. I read the threads I'm interested in and leave the others. Now, one has to go to the main menu and go into the next section...this way the exposure to certain subjects is very little and answers come in sparse :(

And I agree, dislike the beige... boring. But good for a furtive look when at work ;)

I know this is really silly and nit-picking but I don't like how the Bumps and Babes forum is further down the page. See, I told you I'm nit-picking, but it irritates me. Alphabetical order and so on you might say, so keep it at its original name of 'Bumps & Babes' and then add 'Toddlers'. I think the Bumps is nicer than Pregnancy. So... I think it should be called Bumps, Babes & Toddlers. Just my personal nit-picky opinion. :D

I don't like the beige, too bland. Makes the whole page look very 'wishy washy' and dull.

I'm afraid I'm a bit of a pain because I teach web design so cast a critical eye... it functions... that's all I can say really... whoever designs this has the creativity and graphics skills of a Year 7.

At the bottom of your screen you should have a little magnifying glass which you click on and can increase the percentage size of the screen Hmm, thanks Freckles but I can't see anything looking like a magnifying glass, despite putting my glasses on, lol. Might have to wait till DH returns from UK tomorrow - that's how woefully technically challenged and pathetically dependent I am - grrrrrr! Just want life to be simple like it was in the olden days........

I don't like the new look, font is too small and it's too beige and bland. I am always up for changes but this time not positive one from me. Sorry! I have a Mac and I can increase the size touching the mousepad,but it's very annoying having to do this every time. <em>edited by ninkypinky on 03/02/2011</em>

i think if you come in through the AbuDhabi section.... or click on the icon at the end of the address bar that looks like a torn piece of paper (but i know that doesn't work for everyone)

Claire, there is a way of getting rid of that ad, I'm sure someone will be along to tell you how soon :) I can't help as have Ad-Block Plus in FireFox so it's automatically blocked.

It's still got the really really annoying advert down the right hand side that goes across some of the threads which means you can't reply to them not read the entire thread. thought that would be on the list of things to put right....shame....
