How can I get back to the old yahoo answers?

This version...really sucks.. It's all bare bones and doesn't have the green theme that I've come to know and love.

For some reason, when I tried to access Yahoo! Answers on a PC at school WITHOUT being logged in, it directed me to the aforementioned version of it.

But no matter how I direct myself to Yahoo! Answers when I AM logged in, it gives me this crappy, white backgrounded, blue text, AMATEUR look that is really getting on my nerves. Is there any way at all to fix this, or to maybe change the settings of the look or something? D:

    You cannot currently get to the old format any longer. This is the way Yahoo! does things.

    Hope this helps :)

    I do not think you can. It is a trend where companies replace their successful products with new but untested and often undesired "improved" versions. They do not listen nor seems to care. I had a similar experience when my cell phone company decided to only support touch screen. After 6 phone calls to their service I changed companies. They are still sending me promotional email on their latest "touch screen". Shows you they do not teach "listening to customer" in business schools.
