         I have to say, I'm fine with change, but I don't see the point here. I liked the other layout much better. Everything seems so scrunched up and, well, tall this way.

            That was my initial, spontaneous reaction. On second thoughts, I think the top, striped border might have worked better in a pale grey, and I'm not sure about that green that highlights 'statistics', 'Help' and the Hub Hopping symbol. But, all in all, I think it is more chic than before.

               The entire mode of navigating from one feature to another has changed. Where once there was a simple "Comments" choice, understood to be comments made on your Hubs, and a simple "Comments you made", all on the same page, now you have to navigate through a new tab --Activity, is it?--to find the comments you made.
               
               How come all this happened with no warning?
               
               I think it would be considerate of HP to spell out the reasoning for this change and to provide some navigation help.
               
               Well, maybe they did, but I haven't found the place yet.

Whenever a change happens (at least on here, I tend to not go to whatever changed until I'm ready to deal with figuring out whatever the new thing is.    (I stayed with the old-style home page, just because I don't want to have to figure out anything new on here.    )

    NEVER saw that before on here.  It doesn't happen coming to the forum, but it happens when switching back and forth between choices in my account...comments, comments you made, hubbers you follow, etc.
    
    This is an annoying new development.  Please fix.
