My humble opinion of Authspot’s new look. Just a silly piece. :P .

Hey Authspot, is that you?
I barely recognize you!
You once had a rosy glow
Now you’re sterile as snow
A sickly, pallid pallor
With absolute zero color
Your words used to resonate
Now they simply dissipate
Destroying every stanza
A formatting hell extravaganza
Clumped together like a brick wall
Causing me to wildly bawl
I just want to angrily shout
And rip my eyes out
Cause it hurts to look at you
What the hell is wrong with you?
Why did you have to change?
Are you seriously deranged?
This is all Triond’s fault
Causing productivity to halt
Changing the old layout
And decreasing the payout
All I can do now is hope
And just simply cope
Damn, I’m such a mope!

    Great way to vent your feelings. Put a lot of disputing humor in it. Creative done I’ll have to say. Like it!

    I don’t actually mind the new look. It does away with the need to fill in codes and names, which make the commenting quicker. I do appreciate your argument though. You express yourself well.

    Wow, that’s my opinion too. The color is way too pale, I guess. But I love the disappearance of the security code, though. Brilliant piece.

    Boy, do I empathize! Though I don\\\’t miss the codes either.
    Hmmm, third try….

  • Ruby Hawk on Aug 26, 2009

    LOL, it is a little different but I love not having to fill in the code. It doesn’t take half as much time to get a comment in.

    Hi Lady Sunshine, I couldn’t agree more, well said!!

  • rutherfranc on Aug 27, 2009

    I too was lost the first time I saw this format.. lost that rosy glow alright but I guess we’ll get used to it..

    I’m one of the newbies and don’t really remember much of the old, but i did hate he coding, even though at time I still have to use the ode for some reason ……

  • kathie107 on Aug 27, 2009

    That was very nice, well done.

    I don’t know about anybody else, but whenever I leave comment, and not just in Authspot but in all the newly transferred sites, it always says there is an error, but when I go back and check, there is no error. Argh!!!!

    Commenting is much easier now, but I agree that the layout is a little ‘anaemic’ these days!
