Why did Y!A remove the avatars??? This looks like a news thread.?

Guys just depersonalized Y!A. Very hard to separate this from all of your other services i.e. news, finances, groups etc. They all look the same now.

Update:

Go to "My Activities" can't see questions.

New appearance is intimidating. People will just Google themselves.

Update 2:

@Vadid

I wish this was maintenance. It certainly has a maintenance aesthetic. But to the right you should see "Your New Answers Experience" Take a Tour.

I can't even see my history. It only goes from today to yesterday?

Lol is revamping Y!A some intern's project?

    I noticed that too. I came here about 15 minutes ago. It looks TOTALLY different. I noticed that it said - ''Yahoo answers on air''. Now it's back to the old way lol. I don't know what's going on.

    Source(s): Very weird.

    You must have a very strange system in America ? In the UK everything is perfect and as before. We still have Avatars and I can see my activity. Just you get on with answering sensible questions,and you wont notice anything.

    Merissa Meyer has a death wish for Yahoo. It is faster but not better. No personality. Maybe she owns stock in Google.
