Mine was like that, "hate it" and I was trying to see "Boo Boo" 's picture, which I can't see and I accidently clicked on the arm part which I could see and it brought me back to the old format. ARGGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Daisalana 33]

Mine keeps going back and forth now..

Can you see her picture?

I'm not to fond of the new main page, myself. The sublists won't stay collapsed if I refresh the page, and I really liked being able to see the newest post in each forum, like the old layout showed. I think the new layout could be good with a few tweaks, but so far, I'm not thrilled. It's a little too busy for me.

Not happy with it either .. hope it goes back

Don't quite understand why the new magazine thing is the focus of the website.

I miss the user cp right there. I miss it!

[Daisalana 33]

I miss the 'my account' button.

I can bounce it back and forth at this point----manuevering through the new format, was disappointing. But there have been other changes over the last couple of years I didn't like and I have adjusted!!!

I do think it will limit discussions-----when you only see a few of the current threads as opposed to the newest per forum.

Maybe the goal is to take the site to a magazine type of thing as opposed to a general support board. Hate to see that happen, but I am old and set in my ways!!! LOL

Everyone stay close, when I can no longer come back to this old format I will be lost, and hollering for help!!!

Not sure if this helps, guys, but when you first go to the site, you are on the new page with the new format. A lot of message boards have a "landing page" like that. Then, if you click on the "forum" tab in the upper left of the page, that will take you to the forums in the format we all know and love. The "home" tab takes you back to the initial "landing page".

Oh, I -REALLY- don't like this. I'm here to talk to others, not read some articles. Bring back the 'normal' forum page, and fix the 'My Account' button please.

Ok, temp fix for "My Account": http://www.lapbandtalk.com/subscription.php

Bring back the 'normal' forum page, and fix the 'My Account' button please.

Well, it is Alex's board, not ours, and he can set it up however he wants. If he opts to put it back the old way, then he will take care of it. But if this is the new format, options are a little more limited. I would start by asking in a nicer way, and maybe explain to him why it bothers you outside of "I'm here for this not that".
