  Theme: Misty Lake. The layout of the admin page changes (i don’t remember changing it), from light to some darker design. I find the new design makes it harder to read. Is there a way to get back to the previous layout (the lighter one)? Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No, you won’t be able to change it back. Please read this sticky post at the top of these forums. WordPress.com has been updated.

  In the link 1tess has given above, some amightywp really made some funny remarks:

  “It’s a bold change, and a lot of work went into it.”
  Heh, sure. I can imagine how surprised and happy you are getting back home, and find that someone has changed the color of your bedroom wall (and said that line to ya).

  “There will always be people who don’t like change.”
  Righto. People choose some themes in particular because they find it troublesome. Lovely logic.

  “We love our users and we do listen..”
  Of course you do. That’s why you closed the topic right away in the first place, right?

  “Please give this new dashboard a try! We think that once you’ve given it a spin around the block, you’ll like it as much as we do!”

  (Can’t help but love the exclamation marks) Sorry, this time I can’t comply to give it a try. It’s forced on me. I have no choice!!
