Hi Blondes (we were both at the November 2014 - blimey was it that long ago? - lunch in London) ...

... anyway, I agree with you. The new PM icon/whatever is not so 'obvious' is it? The first time I got a PM after the 'new layout' was introduced, I barely noticed it.

I loved the yellow & red envelope box - at least you could see it immediately. I can't even remember what we're supposed to look out for now

Also a veteran of the 'potato' meet in 2014!

The bit where it says 'My Mumsnet' gets a little icon in it that I can't remember what it looks like.

I'll PM both of you NOW so you can maybe see it!

[FruStefanOla]

Have just replied to your PM magi. Yes, it's a purple bell - "ding-dong"

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Whoop. I see it

Never noticed that. Think as read messages via email usually

Least obvious if have a message now

Thanks you lot :)

And yes potato gate :)

I loved the little red & yellow envelope when you got a PM - that purple doodah isn't the same at all !

[Blondeshavemorefun]

It jiggled. Was fab :(

[FruStefanOla]

It doesn't jiggle for me on the desktop!

[magimedi]

Dosen't jig for me either.

I want jig!

NOW!

[FruStefanOla]

Perhaps we should just have a couple of magi and then maybe the purple bell with jiggle for us too?

[FruStefanOla]

Actually, if MNHQ can make it jiggle - they should also make it tinkle?!

[FruStefanOla]

A bit like this maybe?!

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Why did the red and yellow box go?

Don't want purple bell :(

[DawnMumsnet]

Evening all,

We hear you! We don't think we'll have much luck getting the red/yellow envelopes back, but we can go ask Tech if they can make the purple thing jiggle AND tinkle.

[Blondeshavemorefun]

on pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease ask tech to make it jiggle and tingle
