As David said, it takes courage to do that but ultimately a great satisfaction comes from within by having faith and patience to succeed. Jean,

I find some of the new features to be less useful than the old version...but maybe I just don't know how to use them correctly. For instance, how do you edit a comment?

Bless Mr. Sardonicus for letting me use it. Thanks for telling me they're as great as I think they are. :) Shamelle, I tend to stretch myself a lot learning new things. So I'm very aware of why mastering new skills/knowledge is difficult. Robert, Glad you like the new look. I do too! Darren,

Indeed learning something new and actually practicing it quite an experience. With time, you get "used" to it and then one wonders why it was so difficult in the first place.
