Angela They have updated their FAQ which include how the new/updated functions work

Is there a walk-through for the new site?

I agree the white is too much and does hurt your eyes after a short time :-|

And I don't wear glasses...yet!

I agree with you Wendy, I found i had to come off site in the end as it was hurting my eyes to much in the end

But do like the new look Just few things need sortting.

Havent looked at tree yet. But have heard its not good and want the old one back.

Zooming in the way IGP suggests darkens the print and aggravates the brightness problem.

I have increased the font size and made it readable without changing the colours. Now that I can see it without straining my eyes, I quite like it.

I also notice on the tree that the bright red numbers have become purple - much better.

No no no...fill the page if you have sight problems?

But I guess its down to the individule

IGP, I beg to differ if i zoom in on the page it just multiplies the brightness problem

New look is brilliant.

To get the best results, make sure you fill the page. Hold down the Ctrl key and move your mouse scroll wheel so the page fills your screen without any left right scroll bar at the bottom.

Same advice applies to all websites, not just GR. Adjust it to fill your screen and you will be surprised how better it looks.

I like the general look of the site but trying to read anything is like trying to read whilst someone is shining a light your eyes

I have tried altering my settings for brightness but that also dimes down the printed text so i still have the problem of straining my eyes to read which then leaves me with a headache after abt 10 minutes

I did say that on the feedback to GR when doing the beta testing

Roy

I like it!


Sorry you are having trouble with it

Horrible horrible horrible. I cannot look at for more than 5 mins without my eyes hurting whereas when I first started on my tree I spent hours on it with no problem.

My tree now looks something from a School project not a professional piece of research any more-all that time wasted.

I have cancelled my Auto renewal & cannot beleive this company is so arrogant it keeps ignoring everyone's pleas & suggestions and just carries on regardless.
How fitting that they publicise the Titanic today, that was something else that sunk due to lack of attention to detail and ignoring warnings from elsewhere!

I have already cancelled my auto renew. How did anyone think that going from a good reliable design to this mess was good business.

View other trees does not work other than the first few names and I cannot be bothered to waste any more time when I cannot trust my the safety of my data here.

Such a shame as they used to have a very good product. :-(

I was appalled when I came on to the site today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The background is so so white,the boxes on the tree are pale and anaemic.After five minutes I found myself squinting,it is so hard on the eyes.Please please revert to the previous format.I think I might have to move my tree to another site.it was bad enough when the previous change was implemented but that at least looked professional and was member friendly.
