wonder if it will help if we flood them with negative feedback? OH wait…we did that when they changed how we create posts and they ignored the lot of us ….***sigh***

I don’t like it at all, me and my dad were thinking of moving on from WordPress and focusing more on 500px and this may be the stick that broke the camels back.

OH NO well I’d hate to see you go…I’d have to start following via 500px 😉 but I cannot say that the thought hasnt crossed my own mind.

The focus seems to have shifted considerably with this update. Our photos seem to get lost in all the other posts. Were not getting the same reaction we used to. That could be a content issue as well mind as we don’t really do blog posts we do singular pictures. Where as 500px is all about the photograph.

No I think you’re right, the overall effect is not nearly as inviting as before, regardless of the type of post it is.

Nope its not at all inviting, it was so much easier to add content when we first joined 3 years ago. Its sad we really enjoyed the experience back then.

I feel the same. I actually have a website for Dark Fey that I created with Wix.com and they offer a Free blog. Im going to look into transferring Booknvolume over there this weekend methinks.

Not sure what they were trying to accomplish. A more streamlined setting? And I have to wonder, who did they ask about these changes, cause I’m pretty sure it wasn’t us.

I agree, its becoming a less ‘user friendly’ site all the time.

I don’t get it…this could be, by far, one of the best platforms for us, yet they keep screwing things up. Go figure
