LJ SUCKS!!!!!! If you haven't logged in- stay with the old design!!!! A fix!
I can't express how deeply I HATE this new design - and what the f*ck LJ, rating people? So I'm just above a bot yet less than 10 thank you, NOT! Now, please go screw yourself! They're so messed up with bugs I can't even get from page to page, I just time out. Beyond frustrated!!!
If you see this and didn't log in to see the new design- as far as I can tell they do give you one chance to go back to the old design when you do sign in with a pop up- DO NOT hesitant, click and opt for the old design- if you don't answer and just click closed like I mistakenly did -I thought I could look before deciding- NO! They just give it to you as a default & you'll be stuck like me. If anyone has any know how on opting out of the new design beyond the pop-up, or at the very least opt out of their rating thing - I don't need LJ to tell me who's popular in their opinion, or whether a person/community is active or not- please HELP!
On the good, it’s Friday. Will visit with friends after work and bitch to them- with cocktail in hand *a double*
ETA Curtsey of lordhellebore, ragdoll & a_phoenixdragon: A fix To switch to the OLD STYLE: On the main LJ page: Top right corner in the blue menu bar, there's an empty square you can click on, between "Post to Blog" and the little magnifying glass search. If you click it you get a popup asking if you want to explore the new features or switch back to old.
I don't know if this is temporary or not- they certainly don't want us to switch back hence the unlabeled blue square (note I did have to close and open my profile page before the pop up appeared) and certainly don't give a shit about making people happy, or at least giving them a heads up- bad business ethics.
