I'm not so sure I like it, its kinda hard on the eyes. I think I like it the original way better, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it...

I agree with you Teresa. It's hard on the eyes. Flourescent colors can be tough, and I'm not sure how often I'll be able to look at it.

Yep I was confused too! I refreshed about 5 times before I was sure it was how it was supposed to be. Teresa, I'm with you. The blue is painful. :( makes it hard to see and focus. :(

I just showed my hubby. He said I could wear sunglasses. I don't know. It is very like flourescent. If you turn your screen down it's not so bad.

Maybe we can vote?

Maybe if they just tone it down a little.
But, MaryJane, this is your website and if you like it I'm fine with it. You've given us so much already.. I do think it is bright but its cheerful!

Well, i think we should all vote, my vote is "NO", go back to the way it was, it really does bother my eyes. I even had my D-in-law look, along with my son and brother, and they all agreed with me, its just too harsh, not inviteing, I guess its too modern, which in my mind means cold...IMO

I don't know if my monitor at home is any different from the ones at work- but it doesn't look as bright at home? Maybe they changed the color scheme a bit to tweak it? Anyone else think the colors changed a little bit from this afternoon when they first changed?q

It is kinda bright- I dont mind either way but I guess if I had to place a vote, I would vote for the "old" way. To me it just looked more "country" and "old fashioned". These new colors look kinda modern to me. Either way- it wont stop me from being here!

My hard drive has been acting up so I thought it was my computer. I like it better before, it was warmer and more gentle.

And I thought I just hadn't given things a chance to completely load! It looks so bright and cheery. Guess MaryJane just wants to keep us on our toes!

I like it. Similar to a color I would use in my home. But I like BRIGHT colors--my kitchen is orange and blue.

I agree with Teresa - it's really hard on my eyes - especially the red on the main page.

I like the color combo, kind of like vintage meets farm style. I love the rooster red color. But have to agree with the brightness, a bit hard on tired eyes

LOL, I just came here and found the ALL new site. Very pretty :)but also a bit too bright. Maybe if the colors are toned down a bit it would be easier on the (old) eyes lol ;)
