Looks great Aryana, and all the links seem to work well enough! Out of interest, is this to be the default main blog page, or will the 'classic' view be the default?

I like it....the links work....there is a good clean look about it and the layout is along the lines of the new homepage with links to everything on the left. Everyone should be able to see exactly what they want with this. Congratulations to the design team. How long before it is rolled out as standard? ~~Anais Nin~~

Is this the final finished look? When will it be rolled out? It's ok. I'm glad for the links to "My Watched Lists/Posts", etc... It'll take some getting used to and will change the "blogging experience". Read my diary Journal of a Taxi Driver for taxi stories and pictures of flowers and trees.

This looks fantastic! Kudos to whomever designed this page to be so easy to navigate and see the listings (or layout) that you prefer. Your folks did a very good job on this.

I just tested out the new blogs main page with the link you provided Aryana. I like the look and layout of the new main page, however when i click on the links such as random posts, etc, all i get is the classic view? Links don't seem to be working for me? Also you said there would be a link to community blog on the new main page but i don't see one there? I see a link for site support but not for community blog? Will community blog link be put on the new main page?

There appears to be some mistake - I'm not top of the trending list Also, are the links supposed to work, even from sexfinder? They all took me to the same FriendFinder page - even though each had a different URL: /index.html?dcb=sexfinder.com?celltype=random_blogs or most_recent_posts, etc. The FriendFinder page was the blog homepage and listed recent posts, active blogs, most active recent posts and new blogs... but appears to be from 2005! In this alternate universe someone called Sweetnsassygurl was top blogger - so it wasn't all bad

As of right now, I believe this is going to be the default, until you choose 'Classic View'. The long-term plan is that whichever view you select will be remembered as your preference, but right now, we're going to default all users to the new look. We will never expire the 'Classic View', but that page will never be updated again. I think you've done an excellent job of modernising. Well done, and thanks.

I just went and checked Aryanas previous poll results on the rotating blogs list, and the poll results showed an overwhelming majority in favour of the change, votes result was something like... 174 people in favour of the change 15 people in favour of leaving it as it is, i.e. classic view 5 people don't really care either way. Here is the link to the blog....Rotating Active Blogs List Really can't argue with those figures on the poll Aryana did. I would also guess the majority of people who post on your blog will probably be bias in supporting your position Sandra. I did post on your blog to say i was in favour of the change however. Anyway it seems to me the powers that be who run the site have already made up their minds and this change is going to happen come what may? I have fought against site changes in the past such as the removal of profile background bling and to change new message centre back to the old one, and i have not been alone in those efforts but it seems futile, once site management have made up their minds we can all go whislte, and nothing we can say or do will change things.

I like it. 2022... it HAS be better, right?!

I love the change! All links worked for me. Thank you to you and the designers of the changes. I agree with one of the other posters that I was hoping My Watched Blogs would open to the whole list, but that isn't a major issue for me. I really like the clean, easy to use new look! I also like that this will be the new default, NOT the classic view! Thank you again. (sorry had to re-do my comment, I hit refresh after I posted and ended up posting multiple times, then I deleted too many, lol. Time for more coffee for me)

It ok to me which ever Style is to be use. As I don't see any changes with any of the features,other then a new feature added to it 'Trending Blog posts'. All the features button being organize in a listing to click to view would be easier for those newbie to blogs. ***I was wondering what is this Trending blog posts? How is some one blog post being show as Trending? Is this only for new blog post? *****

Is it possible to show more blogger on the 'Actively Watched Blogs'. Just to fill up the space on both end instead of 3?

This bug has been fixed now. Thanks for pointing this out! I also now see the link for community blog on there aswel.
| |||||||||||||||

Sorry Aryana I forgot to add.....Any chance you could give us a classic view option for the message centre?. I'd much prefer to use the old one.

This bug has been fixed now. Thanks for pointing this out! Am I "Top of the blogs, Ma! Top of the blogs!" yet?

If your link actually worked I'd try it out! Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones

Okay I got the link to work and I like the clean look of the page. What looks inappropriate and completely out of place is the Penthouse ad. Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones

Because the trending list is designed to highlight quality blogs and doesn't just take into account the number of comments Really, who on earth would believe that the site is fixed against them and them alone?

You might want to move the Views column about 5mm to the left since it looks too scrunched up against the date. Why is it that EVERY single page with a new layout has a banner in it? Add more bloggers in the roulette under the Actively Watched Blogs and add more space in between the last line of the Random Blog Post list and the title. The left column looks clean and easy to navigate but a bit more spacing in between the links might be helpful, especially for those using touch screens in desktop mode. Make sure the bloggers in the Most Active Male Blogs are, in fact, Males. There is one Female blogger in that list. Browse by Your Location might be easier to understand than just Browse by Location. Personally, I think the Site Support Blog and Community Blog be on the top of the list under Other Links. The Where I'm Quoted and My Watched Blogs should be under My Blog.

Hi Sandra, your blog is very popular and always generates lots of comments. I think your blog will do very well under the new blog system, and most times i have tested the new blog main page and different lists your blog has been shown on most of the front pages within most of the links. As Aryana has explained the new blog system is designed to highlight a broad range of bloggers across the site, both popular blogs and also at the same time give lesser known blogs a chance to shine aswel.

There does always seem to be problems when ever new features are added to the site? Yesterday when i tried the new blog system most of the links were not working as they were all taking me to the classic view, however that now seems to be fixed. The new message centre has been here months now but is still full of bugs and glitches.......various members unable to read or reply to messages, scroll bar not working, sent messages not showing in the conversation history. It really is about time they sorted it out. Being able to email other members really is the most basic function for a site of this nature, and many members are getting increasingly fed up and frustrated with it.

The word "excluded" is the past participle of the verb "exclude" which means in most usage one of the following:- ".....to prevent someone or something from entering a place or taking part in an activity. .....to intentionally not include something." Are you seriously suggesting that this is deliberately happening to you and others? If you are.....I do hope that you have asked the site to investigate why and that you will let us know the results of your inquiry. ~~Anais Nin~~
