I just noticed that the poll graphic for showing the results changed from last night to today!

It has always been (as long as I've used the Poll here at LSI) a simple 3D pie chart graphic with colored pieces to show approximately how much of the whole (100%) pie the various categories of votes in the poll are listed.

Now it is a "doughnut" chart.

So I opened this poll up to ask if you like the old way or the new one.... In my experience its a personal preference type of question.

I love the new doughnut graph! heart	2 (50.0 %)	vote
I neither like nor hate either graphic....	1 (25.0 %)	vote
I just want the old 3D pie back again the way it was before.	1 (25.0 %)	vote
I hate the new doughnut graph with percentages written in it.	0 (0.0 %)	vote
I'd rather have some other graphic [please list which one you would prefer if you choose this---use the links or Google to find the other types that can be used] in the poll.	0 (0.0 %)	vote
I sort of like the new doughnut graph	0 (0.0 %)	vote
I sort of dislike the doughnut graph	0 (0.0 %)	vote

total votes: 4

Where's the option for "who cares"? :p

I love the new doughnut graph! *heart*

Am I allowed to vote?

A little background on this one. There are two reasons for the new layout. First, this one adjusts to screen size. Second, it's interactive. So this layout is more flexible and opens the door for more features across the site.

Also other graphics have changed by the way, check the graph at yourvip status for example.

I just want the old 3D pie back again the way it was before.

Although I like doughnuts!
