I think this is a self explanatory poll. Just let me know your opinion as soon as convenient.

Thanks.

Hi Rose,
good idea to make a poll.

I like the new LMA very much - it is such easy to upload pics - no more photobucket. [image]

Of course - as everywhere - it isn't easy to get in touch with the "how-does-this-work" [image]

but it is not as difficult as it looks.

What I like totally is that everyone has an own page with an own gallery or slide-show - and we can talk to each other private or in public like here.

I think everyone can feel very comfort there - it just needs a little step and a little courage to go there.

I like it very much. You can even add widgets - like what music you are listening to, on your 'my page'. It is a bit of a learning experience, but really it is the sort of place that opportunities just keep evolving, in the things you can do.

I feel very comfortable just posting and commenting on things, but like here, there is private mail.. pms. I didn't find it at first because it is just a small envelope icon at the very top of the page. Now that I've found it, I feel I can manage quite nicely.

I do like the opportunities we have to make our own pages look the way we want it to look. Colours and backgrounds etc. I see there are even gadgets you can add to talk like on msn, with full webcam support if you so choose to.

On this board you can be as extroverted or intraverted as you please! [image]

the only thing I feel really shy about is my artwork. [image]

Well I voted to move there too. I love the ease with which you can upload pictures and the slide show feature looks great. Having your own individual page on the web is pretty cool too. It's taken me a while to learn how to use the smilies but I think I've got it now.
As with all new things it will feel a little alien initially but so did this site when we first started here and now it feels like home.

I think it is great.
Now that I have figured out how to travel through it quickly, I am very happy.
The gallery is the best.

Hi Rose, I think the new site with it's great features, i.e. ease of posting, uploading of images, and personal space with folders and gallery, is just wonderful. At first I had a little bit of a headache trying to find my way around, but it's pretty easy now. To prove how much I like the site, look if you can see it...I just spend hours there checking out almost everyones pictures and reading posts and setting up my own personal space. LOL It's almost like living together in a big mansion, where everyone has their own room, and we come together to play. Ok..ok...maybe not,

but it's fun there.

One thing I miss is a spell check and of course the smilies.

Hey Christy - you can get the smilies at Smiley Xtra 4 if you have Mozilla as your browser

This is really a fun new site - it isn't that hard to get around on it and having a personal page is wonderful. You can even block people from seeing your page if you like. The slideshow is the best!!!! I also like the "latest activity" part.

We need some more votes from everyone as this isn't a permanent change as yet. So lets vote on the poll if you haven't already done so.

Hi Rose
I had some trouble at first getting started and setting up my page,{ but thats just me }

but as you can see I have made albums etc and think I'm getting the hang of it now lol Once you get over the teething problems it's a cool site I'm now having fun with it I also like how you can rate the drawings with stars.
