I don't get it...

:D ok... the original Web Form Builder had a nice design, you had control over all the elements, now this one that boasts lots of improvements and changes but seems to be very hard to work with... like for instance with the original form bulder you could drag and drop images, the text fields and move them anywhere you wanted, but with this new one it restricts everything to moving either straight up and down without any kind of movement left or right. I don't get it.... there really is no control over radio buttons beyond just clicking it and saying 1 column, 2 columns, width etc... does anyone else find this frustrating from a point of view of wanting to be able to have full control over where things can be positioned and at what speed? I used to be able to make forms so fast in the original version, now it's just seems like way to many clicks and drop down boxes in order to move things around.

Am I to assume the original form builder will never be updated again in terms of adding in things that allow it to keep up with browser technology, etc...? :(

You have to remember Andrew that you are not working with Flash anymore. You still have a lot of control, but things are just a bit different. Also, nothing is hard-coded anymore, so if you want to do anything custom, you have access to the HTML and CSS to do any thing you like.

I think you just need to get used to the new way of doing things and it will all work out.

As to the Flash version, that was already taken out to the pasture and buried beneath 12 feet of dirt. ;)
