LJ does it again...

LJ has redesigned our friends page to be a systems page. Gone is my lovely layout. This is in beta phase so go here and register your opinion on the matter:

You can take a look at the flist redesign but clicking on the link when you are looking at your flist. It is hideous. I am stunned at how stupid LJ can be. This is enough to make me go over to dreamwidth in a red hot minute.

So check it out and go comment with your opinion. I am amazed. LJ seems to want to deliberately alienate their userbase.

Gah.

The view from dreamwidth...

Looks pretty good. A nice friendly blog format. I still have to figure out the layouts over here and could customize them more. I am testing the cross post function and checking to see if that works. Just blathering. I am trying to get to bed really early tonight because I have a big important meeting I am managing and attending and want ample time to drink coffee and primp here at home.

Anyhoo. This is a post about nothing much. I think I should add a graphic and see if that will carry over. I am testing this because I am hopping mad about the flist thing and the future of LJ. I just hate how it will look. I spend so much time on the friend view and I want it to look MY way, not theirs.

That is it. I design my own layouts and I like how they look. I won't start this cross posting thing until I am sure that LJ has totally disregarded what people want. I am sure they will ignore everyone and just go ahead with their redesign of the friends page.

Anyhoo. Just a test here. No big deal. I want to see how it looks here (DW) vs. there (LJ).
