Change is hard!

I suppose we will all get used to the new format but I am VERY surprised to see my email address made public.

Thank you for your response and reassurance that only I can see it.

The new site looks pretty good. I am not liking the tiny profile pictures! Everything else I think we will like and get used to. Change is hard!

I like the emojis, the ability to upload photos, insert media.

And lots of women have asked that they be notified when someone responds to their post, and now we are! We will get. used to it.

BluebirdOne

Yes, I received an email of the notification and used the mobile site which was very good compared to the old one. That will be a much used feature. And I tried out the spelling function and it did pick up my intentional misspelling.

So different looking. I hate change but will get used to it!

Where or how do you see that your email is public?

I don't like that header on the page taking up 1/3 of the page or the image.

I looked at my profile, but CSN support person said I am the only one who can see it. Which I'm glad to hear.

Hey, friends--

Yes, I think some of the changes are good, but the graphics are not great. Header taking up so much space and then tiny, tiny avatars are not great. I need more time working with the new site.

Take care, everyone---

I created a blog of my journey. CSN assures me its. here but I can't find it. It's a learning curve

While I didn't use the blog function, I did ask CSN yesterday about it. They also told me that it was incorporated into the Expressions Gallery. I specifically searched for your's and Eldri's blogs, but didn't find either of your "blog profiles." I also didn't find the one item I had added to the Expressions Gallery a couple of years ago. I'm going through the site now and trying to identify where other glitches may be.

While some aspects of the search function have been improved, others are frankly confusing. As someone who has searched expensive text databases for most of my career, I 'm quite familiar with the pros and cons of different approaches to searching. Once I think that I know how best to search the site, whether as a member or a guest, I'll update the FAQ document. For now I've just asked CSN to remove the old FAQ text that was no longer relevant.

Thank you for all you do. It would be sad to lose that information because it was a diary of my experience. And I had photos too. I also found a couple of posts from women with uterine cancer who had posted in expressions in the past. And of course they never received responses. I suggested both of them post in the uterine cancer discussion board.

So CSN sent me a link. I could not copy it, but just. now discovered that if I click on the post, the links go live. I was able to click on it and find my blog. https://csn.cancer.org/discussion/319123/my-story#latest. But if someone doesn't know its there it will be hard to find. I will try and add a link to my. profile.

I'm glad CSN was able to retrieve your blog. I was able to find your blog entries with the link above. And I agree that adding the link to your profile would be helpful (and not just for you!). I hope CSN can also retrieve Eldri's blog too since her's also contains her cancer experience.
