Am I just too old to learn a new "trick"?

I am having a hard time adapting to this new layout-to the point that I've avoided the site.  It is clumsy and amateurish.  I'm in the software development business-so I know of what I speak.........this is not very friendly, and the "dashboard" is anything but......is anyone else under whelmed with the "improvements?  Or am I just too old to adapt??

Oh, and by the way!!  I'm going to be a Gammy in June!! So excited!!

I don't like it.  But you know, I usually don't like it when sites that work perfectly fine make a bunch of unnecessary changes.  I don't know why they do it.  It just confuses people and makes it difficult to use the site.

I find it very annoying. Initially they did not explain where they hid things just left us to try to find it ourselves. Since i do not use a mobile device would have liked it to stay computer friendly!

You're not the only one. I liked the old site. It was simpler and easier to use.

I hasn't bothered me.  There are some things that are easier to see (especially on my phone) and there are definitely some things that need to change.  Message notifications (LACK THEREOF) is very annoying.

Aside from not knowing whether you have a message or not (and I have requested that twice so far), I don't have any problems with it and I'll bet I'm older than you kiss

I can't stand it and I use my mobile probably 75% of the time.  I find it cumbersome, annoying, and not aesthetically pleasing.

I had not been on here in a while until yesterday.  I really don't care for the changes either, but I'm finding my way around.  I will keep coming back because if I don't I will lose my motivation.  Best wishes

The only thing I don't like so far is the way to our forum.  I liked the drop down menus better.  Maybe they changed providers to a less expensive one, and are selling it as improvements.  I do like the mobile version a little better.
