I like the "new" format. Not crazy about the "Next Gen" template though.

The New Gen was too confusing and unfamiliar and it made me cranky, probably because I'm old and I don't like change just for the sake of change. I'm still prefer a flip phone and Google driving directions so I went back to the old TMS format. I'm still cranky but that might just be the hemorrhoids.

I don't like change either. The question to me is 'why'??

To much white on the new one. Like the older format better.

I neither like nor dislike the new format. It does seem a little "flat" due to a lot of whitespace, but remember, whitespace matters!

SMH at the laborers-behind-the-scenes, dicking around to try justifying their salaries. Zip up your flies and disappear, please.
