I would love to try it. I live in such a remote location we don't even have broadband. My high-speed connection is really quite slow compared to what is available to others using the site. I have a microwave connection to broadband which is far faster than dial-up, but it leaves me way behind technologically. (I can't even view youtube and the like.)

If it works for me, you'll have someone testing it who doesn't have the usual bells and whistles to play on the net.

Smiles,
Lyn
I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.

Add me, please. Normally I love change, but changes like these slow me down. Computer changes means buttons get moved and I have to think before I click. But I'd love to see it and see how fast I can jettison my way around it. I am especially glad about a better mobile version. I use my phone almost as much as my laptop.

I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown

Yikes I have IE browser and it is awful after this update
The top icons show up vertically about halfway down the page.
What was normally on the right side now is now also vertically
about in mid page at the bottom cover the message bos
so you can't see the entire message as you type. Tat
is why this message looks weird. These cover the messages
and make reading everything impossible. Now if
I can find the post button, I will post this.
If you want to be happy for a lifetime plant a garden!
Faith is the postage stamp on our prayers!

@dave might want to close this thread so he doesn't miss stuff like you're saying Betty. You might want to repost in the thread that says the new format is live.
