I still don't care much for these changes, though. And think about the newbies trying to figure out what to do. WE know what to do, but they don't. I'm afraid they'll just drop out.
It was fairly easy to dope out what to do when I joined up almost 10 years ago and even a computer dope like I was able catch on very quickly because features were clearly marked. Now, the "search" box doesn't even say "search".
Good luck to all potential and/or newbie freepers who are not on the "inside" of how to navigate.

As far as this statement:

Possibly so, but for newby noobs, that haven't signed up yet but will in the future, I think they will have just as easy/hard of a time (they can take their pick lol)learning the ropes as we did when we signed up last millennium.
