How to go back to the original interface for viewing Instructables

How to go back to the original interface for viewing Instructables
If you didn't realize, Instructables' interface for viewing things has been changed for featured, popular, rating | recent, views, and zeitgeist. I saw a couple of complaints that they didn't like this change, so to everybody: here is where we change things.

Don't forget to rate if you like it!

Viewing
First, you want to view the Instructables/ Slideshows/ Videos, right?

You obviously can't view without viewing.

Go to "Explore v" and click on one of the things that comes down in the dropdown, and pick whatever you are looking for.

Then move onto the next step when you are ready.

Did you clear cookies or run ccleaner or a similar program recently?
Jul 23, 2008. 6:55 AMI_am_Canadian says:
I think we did a virus check and a disk cleanup, but thats prettywell it.
Jul 23, 2008. 9:41 PMEaglesNestOne says:
Ya disk cleanups clear your cookies. Try doing it now.

I smell a grease monkey script cooking - somewhere :p I dig the new view - It's very web 2.0 as the hipsters would say... Plus I'm a visual sort of guy, bigger picture is better :D

IT is very "Web 2.0". Labot approves.

Wow, I'm a very visual guy, and feel just the opposite--the photos usually aren't very representative, and now I have to work harder to suss out the 'ibles. Plus I'm very non-linear, and appreciate a little organization in my life.... The grid works with the featured projects, though--I'd say the photos are better.
Jun 2, 2008. 10:22 AMtrebuchet03 says:
Fair enough :p I've been skipping most of the projects and just looking at most popular and featured - bad pictures have always been ignored (even without the new UI)... If you didn't spend enough time to use a good introduction picture in my opinion, it's not worth my time to sort it out :p But if the project is good despite it's introduction image short comings, it will be popular enough for me to catch it :p

They snuck this on us while I was away, but I have to say it's grown on me very quickly.

Thanks! The new template is a real turn-off for me. I saw the changes and was "WTF?" I know it may suit others better, but the original is still the best for me.
Jun 1, 2008. 6:59 PMimpulse94 says:
Thanks, I didn't notice that. I much prefer the List over the Thumbnail view.
Jun 1, 2008. 6:13 PMacaz93 says:
Fire shaving . NO hilarious , lol'd !
Jun 1, 2008. 6:02 PMbumpus says:
k well i figured this all out last weekend, but it does not stay in list view, it goes back to the new one, any idea how to change the views and keep it one way?
Jun 1, 2008. 6:00 PMtheRIAA says:
didn't even notice. I bookmarked "recent" normal view a long time ago, and it hasn't changed.
