I don't like the new message format for sending and receiving messages as the sentences and words are split on the messages lines. Needs adjusting I think.

I am sure that some will like the new format as it is similar to the "bubble" format used in some smartphone messaging applications.
But as someone who uses Mingle 100% on a laptop it is in my view a step backwards.
Having in the past written software to produce web pages automatically, it should be possible to allow users to choose between "old" and "new" formats.
Also, on the laptop, I think the font has been made even smaller than it used to be!
I can barely read it without a magnifying glass now!
These are meant to be constructive criticisms; could something be done, please?!

I don't like the new format, it might be my glaucoma but I can't see how to block people, a vital thing on this site :slight_smile:.

When opening a message the username is in the black section and the delete button is to the right of their username

The letters seem smaller, though the new design looks alright.

It worked OK before.

If it ain't broke, don't 'fix' it.

Just to let everyone know.. I have reported all this to Keith with screenshots of what is going on. It is messing up the order in which the words are seen.. We no longer can delete e-mails in masses only one at a time..

I will not be locking this thread so all can post on it.

PLEASE KEEP TO THE TOPIC AND DO NOT MAKE THIS A CHIT CHAT THREAD!

In order for them to read and understand our concerns about the New Format.

We are not happy with the changes either..

I agree with the others, and don't like the new format. I prefer not to have to open certain emails in order to delete them. Once the one is open, it's easy to continue deleting, but I prefer not to have to read them before deleting them.

Click on the message itself rather than their name, bluegrass. It will open the message, then after you delete it, the next message will pop up automatically.
