	The column on the left is too big, the writing is giving me a headache. All my photos & Notes have disappeared I can't add/change my tree because the buttons have gone Tree looks better but is no good if I can't use it

	Well, I think it is 'going to be' much better!! At the moment I am having trouble finding my way around' but I really think this is a 'long-overdue' improvement at last ! I believe I have seen something somewhere which told me when the member was last on the site (I think it was somewhere in the message centre?) - If I did, this is a most useful bit of info - at least you can tell if a person is still active on the site or has not used it for a year or two. I am off to 'stumble around' a bit more until I get the hang of it. Thanks, for once - GR. Dea P.S. - There are a few things which need a 'bit of a tweek' though so I hope they will sort them out quite quickly.

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 212 Send Message	Hi again I have also discovered you cannot selection all the sent messages to delete them, you have to do it individual....... Maybe the GR team could have asked us what we want from the site...... are we not the customers.... Happy Tree Hunting Valerie x

	I see they have taken note of one comment and made the text a little larger - thank you ! Perhaps we could also have the column to the left with tools etc. and adverts, somewhat narrower? It does tend to 'dominate' at the moment. Dea x
