New Layout - I'm completely lost!

[sllowe]

I'm sorry folks, I'm sorry Medhelp. But, it's hard to look at our community as a "community."
The new layout appears to isolate the individual discussions.  It's hard to get a feel for "what's being talked about in general."

Thanks, Shell.

I meant to answer this earlier, and got sidetracked, but yes, others are complaining as well.  

It looks like we will be adding the first line or two of each thread back, as a preview of the thread.  It's fairly complicated to do that, so it could easily be a few weeks before that's done.  

Still no word on any other changes.

Emily,

I'm glad you saw this. I was going to wrap it up in a nice package for you all to review. Hope our recommendations are taken seriously.

Shermay - I sure don't know. But, I hope they do. Many are not as organized as we are - so maybe it's not as big a deal for them.

I can definitely see how the white-out problem could interfere with vision.  I've had times when white things flared in my vision, and made it hard to focus.  The light blue of the previous pages was much more restfull.

Emily,  I think the important thing to hear from us is that we ARE the community here.  If you didn't have us, there wouldn't be a community.  There are other MS support forums that are more sophisticated yet they have few members and those members communicate less personally.

This is our home where we count on each other.  Please take our considerations thoughtfully.

With Respect,

Lois
