    I did do a trial run about a month ago and I'm glad to see some things have changed. Still not madly keen on the Early Learning Centre buttons and miffed that the 'view all thanked posts' has been removed from the drop down menu but apparently this is policy to reduce the importance of thanks on the forum.

    I'm most concerned about the Twitter and FB functions. Privacy issue perhaps?

    I've been using the new look since Martin asked us to try and it (few weeks ago I think) and although at first it was weird, I couldn't imagine going back to the other one.

    I don't really like it, which is why I'm still using the old one. :D

    Thanks for this, but the speed has nothing to do with which skin you're wearing :( Reverted, and still slow today....

    I was wondering about that too...I hope things I write on here won't turn up on there.

    I like the overall look.

    Don't like the convoluted way to find your thanked posts. It just makes it harder to keep track of conversations you are having.

    Not involved with Twitter or FB so can't comment.

    If you go back to the 'old' view can you 'view all thanked posts' in the old way, from the username drop down?
