MN TOWERS - WHAT was wrong with the old layout???

[DingDongDraculaOnHigh]

What prompted this change?

Now if you could just intermittently flash up the words "Megalegs go and do some farkin' housework" I will be happy again.

I think the amount of text at the top makes it look like one of those pages with a few lines of 'Error' messages e.g

Page header failed at line 20= font not recognised
Page head failed at line 21=invalid usrname

etc

HALLELUIAH!

much better , and my threads i'm on is usable again!

ARGGGGGHHHHH

thats much nicier.

I can feel the PG stress levels lowering as I type.

THREADS I'M ON
THREADS I'M ON
??????????

Where is threads I am on??? Or do I know have to put them all on watch???? Am easily confuddled nevermind when pg with 2 tots hanging off me..pmsl

bugger, wheres the linkat the top for threads i'm on gone?

Now I'm hanging around just to see what you do next.

i've lost threads i'm on too.....

oh custy great minds and at least it isnt me being dim

Why does the list of options at the top come up twice on the Active Conversations page? Makes for 6 lines of text instead of 3.

And I'd like Threads I'm on back please!

i am seriously missing 'threads i'm on'. please bring it back please please

how odd its just appeared out of nowhere...lol

This is what Active conversations 'all topics' looks like at the top.

thanks tech!

poor tech is really earning his pay today!

How stressed out to you reckon the designer person is at this precise moment?

good it's back, but can we have those active convos etc menus slightly bigger and more spread out please.

Oh is it tech doing all this primping? (word?) Go tech, go! (fgrin)

looks like for 'threads am on' go back to your results of search tab and its down the side in My Talk.. didn't think I was technical!
I quite like the typeface / layout actually! not as immediatley clear as before though!

oh er it is at the top! not technical at all i guess!

It's looking better than it was this morning.

here here foxtrot...the now-horizontal active convos etc etc are all a bit too close together and it involves some fairly precise targetting with the mouse to click on the right one... (and I'm not an old fart with buggered eyesight! )

Those duplicated lines are making my eyes go funny!

Hooray! What a fantastic revamp and worth every penny, I feel
