Default new ford forums layout

who finds the new layout harder to read and not as easy to use. you have to open up more things to get to where you want to go.
well i'm sure i'll have to get use to it, what do you think.

Actually there are less things to open as everything is accessible from the main page.

I'm still a little confused occasionally, because it's been the other way for so long, but I'll get used to it.

I just think it looks a little cluttered.

Looks congested with all the small print to me, but hey, at least it works!

i'm with you silver, i think it was a lot better when the clubs were listed..
and i think this for a few reasons:

1) i could open up the relevant club sections easily (middle click them so they line up in tabs for me).

2) knowing from experience, it was very easy for a newbie to look at what clubs were on offer (read their short description) and then make a choice of which one to enter.. nowerdays unless the newbie puts in quite a bit of effort, it's quite hard for them.

but, the changes have been made, and it seems that they are going to stay that way

It's just a matter of getting used to it.

When hotmail changed to hotmail 'live'.. there were whole forums dedicated to protest at the change. I can't even remember what the old hotmail looked like now. (but at the time I was peeved at the change).

A hell of a lot less cluttered. Never used the ford club's links and they just took up too much space.

Originally when it was first done i didnt like it because everythign required more clicks, but now its all still accessable!

Whilst im not a huge fan, i can see why it was done (to un-clutter it all and neaten it up) i do beleive it will grow on me!
