For those who don’t like it: I just figured out yesterday that you can change it so it doesn’t do that annoying changing picture thing. On the home page, it says “page options” under the “web search” button. If you click on that, you can switch to narrow page layout. Yes, it’s narrow, but it gets rid of the moving pictures and I find I like it much better. You can also change colors there.

Does anyone else think it looks a lot like AOL’s homepage from about 10 years ago? Way to cartoony, and to many pictures.

It took a little getting used to, but I like it, particularly the tabbed news section, and find I’m using Yahoo! more than I used to.
