    Okay, when did the board move to the current format? It took me a bit to get used to it but I persevered. I've felt for a long time that the board was somehow smaller or missing something but I only just discovered what it was. For some unknown reason I thought that "home" and "main" were the same thing. How surprised was I when I clicked on main and discovered a whole new category of topics I had been missing...LOL.

    It took many of us quite a while to get accustomed to the new format.

    Some of us still don't know how to use all of its features (me, for one of them!)

    Don't feel bad. I joined a few months ago and thought the same as you. Then one day, I "accidentally" clicked the home button. I spent DAYS going through the pics and tutorials! Have fun reading and looking (and drooling) !!

    I too had a hard time with the new format. Now I just go to the bottom of the page and hit archive. Then look at main or photos there. After reading them, they will highlight the ones once read. I prefer to use the website that way. It works for me. Change is always hard to get used to.

    It has been this way for quite a while. I just hunt and peck and look at everything. There is a help page to help with resizing photos for this site. Lots of other help also. I had it figured out not long after the change. I think some have left because they don't like the new format. Some were throwing hissy fits about it. I like things changing every so often.

    Yep, this is what I do also. It works best for me so I don't miss anything I really want to read or see.
