Have a video-- wait, what happened to LJ?

May 15, 2014 09:31

I came to share a video, only to find LJ looks totally different. Different font (ugh, harder to read), different menus. I wish they'd stop changing things! My eyes suck, never before have I been annoyed at font being too big, but it's just too big. Blah.

Anyway! I've loved this string quartet's version of Coldplay's Yellow forever. Seriously, ( Read more... )

Yeah, I agree with you about the LJ changes.

I went to my Inbox while logged in and got a pop up saying 'LJ is changed! Provide Feedback / Switch back to the old version' and dove for the latter. Just in case you want to try it out and do the same.

Ugh, I'm not getting an option to change back. Went to my inbox and a few other places. To google I go! I can't stand this new version. Thanks for letting me know about it though!

Ugh, LJ! I toughed it out for a couple of hours in the new layout, but as it wasn't getting any less ugly or more intuitive, just switched back. :/

How are you switching between the two? I can't find an option, so I'm still stuck with the new style.

It's the stupidest thing! If you go to the main LJ page -- the one overrun with ONTD updates -- and you look in the top right corner. Between the envelope with messages and the search icon, there's a square. In my browser (Firefox), it's just an empty square, a little darker than the rest of the top bar. But if I click on it, the pop-up box that lets you switch to the old style comes up. Good luck!

Thank you! I never, ever would have found that on my own. I'm on Firefox too, but on my screen it looked like one of those speech bubbles with a question mark in it. Because clearly that's the symbol one would use to represent the option to switch between old and new style.

I do wish LJ would stop "improving" things. :(

The String Quartet are wonderful!
