I have my Yahoo account set to take me directly to the email screen and over the years I have grown accustomed to the way it looks... and I like it..

BUT.......... according to Yahoo, they are doing away with the old "Look" on November 11 and only the "New" look will be available..

This means that there is a 50-50 chance that I will tell Yahoo to stick it where the sun don't shine when that happens...because I do not like the "New" look..

... when are people going to learn not to try and fix something that is not broken...


Oh well ... I still have my JUNO email and it still looks nice and familiar... so Yahoo can stick it....

TWO CENTS WORTH
The story goes that a man died and was approached by the Devil who told him that he could buy his soul back for a dollar. The man searched his pockets and could only come up with 98 cent. While begging the Devil to forget the two cent he was short, an Angel happened by and hearing the Devil laughing, asked the man, "Would you mind if I put in my two cents ?" The Devil got so mad that he exploded in a puff of smoke and the man's soul was saved.
The moral: Sometimes putting in your two cents worth makes a difference.

I'm with you John. It is just fine. It isn't I don't like change, but too many corporate types just change stuff to justify their job. I can also deep six it in a heartbeat. Time will tell!

Every so often my screen will come up with the "new look" and I always change it back. I agree, leave it alone.

hughes net went over to a new look, which consisted to being forced to go to their news site before you could get to your email. Naturally, the button that lets you access email is the very last thing on the page to load. So, I start the page, go do something else, come back, click the email and shut the news page.

Idiots!

I've tried their new look as well and decided I prefer the old page. I guess I'll deal with it.

I am also getting real tired of how this latest homepage works. Everytime I go to click on 'my mail' The screen lowers and has me clicking on the wrong item. If I pause to read the news headlines and don't control my cursor just so, something else pops up and needs to be X'ed out. It is good for at least a dozen curses a day. I'm getting pretty inventive out of necessity.

I just got used to these intolerables, are you saying they are going to change it again?

I feel the rage building already.

Gave up on Yahoo!Mail a few years ago, now its my spam email account. The ads did it for me, I stick to Gmail.
