Squidoo is implementing a facelift on the lens template today. Some lensmasters are complaining that their lenses look all screwed up as a result. I'm sure the powers that be will work out the kinks soon enough.
In the meantime, how do your lenses look?

I dont like it. They need to take it back to the way it was.  I planned to make 5 lenses today and the system kept getting stuck. So i knew they must be tweaking it still. But i hope they change it back.

Ya, I know - we don't like change. I am just trying to be positive about it, and have learned to embrace change as it is very much part of internet marketing - lol

Hi Hermas,
They constantly change things at Squidoo - major facelifts included.
I like the current change. I liked the last one. I liked the one before that too.
They changed the TLD page a short while ago so I was wondering if they might change the individual pages. Not surprised they did.
They usually spend quite a while ironing out the bugs after any major change.
One thing I did notice is they messed up the avatars. Mine only shows the very top of a guitar now, lol. That's because each row holds about three more avatars and the height is shorter as well.
They need to improve the image server speed - especially in regards to the avatars (static.squidoo.com).
This time they have a bigger programming department and each programmer is quite a bit more experienced than during the last major update.
So, it should go smoother and quicker than ever. Plus, the outcome should be the best to date - provided they finally get the speed thing straight. That's critical considering their member number and speed of growth.
I hope that they've given scalability quite a bit more weight in regards to priorities this time!
Lol, I finally have over 1,000 people in my fanclub. I'm a happy camper. Not bad for only being a member for about 18 months and only having four lenses. Should I bow?
