RE: What do people think of the new site.

I'm still waiting for real changes to prove to me this is a nudist/naturist site rather than a soft porn site. I've read lots of posts interpreting what they believe are the intentions of the site owner but really nothing from the owner himself. TT1 used to keep a blog and would post updates about upcoming changes and what was going that helped everyone feel a bit connected to him but he stopped adding to that blog back in 2008 and I have only seen very rare posts since that get lost in the forum and cannot be searched.
The stated purpose of this site is supposed to be to promote naturism/nudism but you would never know it from the number of profiles that list their hobbies as swinging and then go on to list their favourite sexual proclivities.
I want to be a financial supporter and promoter of naturism but am not yet a paid member of this site and I won't because I really don't think it does much to further the naturist/nudist cause. I'll continue to support FCN, TNS and other clubs and websites but I'm really not sure how much longer I'll stay here. It's just discouraging.
I feel like such a prude here and yet I don't really think I am .... ah well. I'll give it another month or two. Thanks for listening to me vent a bit.

RE: What do people think of the new site.

I don't mind it, takes a little getting used to i guess. One thing i do not like, is seeing every single comment from every single friend of a friend.

Agreed. One can fudge it, but somehow this doesn't cut it.Looks like some kind of mascot for Greenpeace.

The new layout is very similar to Facebook, ie updates, showing who your friends have made friends with etc.
