I'm from the Philippines and didn't sign up to see this new layout and it pisses me off to no end that I have it now. I tried to set it back to classic style by deleting the cache, temp files and history and the restart the laptop. It didn't work. The fugly layout is still there but with the added bonus of me losing my history. Grrrrrrrr. The reason I don't like it is that it looks no different from the local Yahoo pages. It's hard to distinguish if you're in a local Yahoo or the international one.
the layout is cool but a bit confusing....I think the local one should have been more distinguished from the .com one
I strongly dislike the new page. In fact, if the new page pops up, you can scroll to the bottom and click on "return to classic page." When I pulled up Yahoo this morning it said at the top that this new page will launch on 11/15/09 permanently. I also use Google, so I guess I'll make Google my new home. For some reason, the purple on the new Yahoo page turns me off. I think if they wanted a new page, they could have come up with something more pleasing.
