i have to agree with Brian... The first thing i thought when i saw the
re-design how it wasted screen space. This makes smaller type therefore
harder to read.... i like the design elements and the overall look.
unfortunatly the new design is not easier to use. the feature i look to
most...classifieds is a step backwards in functionality.i do not mean to
flame the site as all the hard work is appreciated......geo
