Yeah MN Towers, we like the old layout better.

Let's start a petition and keep bumping this til they succumb to "might of the mums"!!!!

Ooh I'm getting all militant now!

jampots · 15/12/2006 10:32

sorry I dont like it either. bring back the old one please...

It's just awful and for that reason, I'm logging off. I can't stand it.

Twiglett · 15/12/2006 10:30

you can't have a left hand navigation bar AND an ad server on the right hand side

Twiglett · 15/12/2006 10:29

Oh god .. just logged in ... this is top message

THIS IS AWFUL!!! .. cumbersome and just looks ugly on the screen

a rethink perhaps?

GlennCloseAsCruellaDeVille · 15/12/2006 10:27

I think it has changed to make people go to other parts of the site instead of just talk..ie commercial reasons, hence the side menu..

ThrockenAroundTheChristmasTree · 15/12/2006 10:26

I think it is the brown stripe down the left that is most irritating - it keeps catching my eye.

GoodKingWhimsylas · 15/12/2006 10:23

I don't like it

DingDongWaspEllyonHigh · 15/12/2006 10:23

Adding my humph! to general grumpiness er: new layout

NoXmasNameForNomDePlume · 15/12/2006 10:21

Active convos page is now really hard to read.

NoXmasNameForNomDePlume · 15/12/2006 10:20

I don't like this new layout at all.

It isn't nice to use.

Hopefully this will mean that my personal MN veto is more effective and continues long into the new year.

munz · 15/12/2006 10:17

dingdong - please don't sat that, I lothe those things and the 3 pages of goodbyes or whatever people post after their messages. it's awful.

munz · 15/12/2006 10:16

yeah, loved posting a reply then pressing active convos button on the top.

least DH will be happy cos i'll prob be MNetting less and cleaning the hosue more!

IdrisTheRedNosedDragon · 15/12/2006 10:15

I suppose after the home page changed talk was going to as well.

But this is driving me a l,ittle mad

May even be forced to go and do housework.

we'll be having those stupid bouncing emoticons and people having little bye lines to their names next

GlennCloseAsCruellaDeVille · 15/12/2006 10:14

just made that point on the other thread

it is now just another site just as awkward to use and more designed for dipping in than lingering

hat hate hate the split pages malarky

Ceolas · 15/12/2006 10:12

Yeah, it's a bit odd
