It's now spoiled. Good photos are a number one necessity.

Everything you need to know is in the sticky posted today.
To find it go to:

Home, page down to Classifieds, Click on Items for Sale in the Villages Florida, Then look under the Sub Forums where it says:
Threads in Forum
First line under that you will find:
Sticky: Classifieds - Important Please Read

I'm sure Admin is just trying to improve things, but in this instance they have made Items For Sale much less user-friendly

At the bottom right of every page is a drop down labeled 'forum jump'. Click on the little down indicator next to 'go', and every section of this website will drop down. Scroll down until you see the section you want to navigate to, select that section and hit 'go'. It's very simple or as someone already posted, go to the home page and every section is listed there. Link Talk of The Villages Home Page (https://www.talkofthevillages.com/forums/#talk-villages-forums) Bookmark that page for future use, at the top of the page you can select 'new posts' and you'll see a combination of all the sections new posts together.

I'm sure the number of browsers will be way down. I doubt many people go to this site thinking "I need a DVD player...or whatever." Will likely cut down on the "yeah... that looks interesting... I could probably use that.." type of viewers. This is designed more for people with specific needs/wants. Fewer sales ahead I'm sure.

I certainly enjoyed browsing whatever was for sale, and ended up making quite a few "impulse" purchases.

Of course, most of them are now sitting idle in the garage...

I agree. I liked being able to see all of the pictures at one time instead of having to click each category. Too much clicking and changing screens involved for me and too jerky. It's seems like we have gone back to the olden days of doing things. It's a shame.

We put out a survey and over 80% of the respondents voted to go away from Panjo and back to the old format of posting.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think everybody is objecting to listing the items within Categories. Hard to just browse as they are listed.
