before aol gold I had a variety of font choices; now I am restricted to only the few you have

I have 2 complaints :) about email .....it really would be nice if you could make emails like they were and let us use different FONTS the ones you offer are UGLY! Second, you have said you have returned being able to send email by pressing Ctrl / return.......This does not work!!! After 2yrs of this new AOL ....and all the complaints I see no major changes. It appears you pay more attention to companies that pay to have their irratating ads in the Gold program than you do the members.......

Been Waiting for EMOTICONS for a year now. Originally, sent you a screen Shot as you requested.
Disgusted with AOL after All these years being a member. THE NEW AOL has no interest in Customers or Customer Service. All your effort is directed to advertising, misleading news, and making money. Can get mail at no cost. Why do I keep paying when you don't care. Paul Garvin duknsu@aol.com

Need lots more cute emogis - not just Smileys

bring back the perks of email, colors, fonts, stationary moving emojies etc.

when are the former options from older version of AOL going to be installed? I mean the ability to change colour background in e-mail, download images to a file from mail, Older smiley's. All the old fonts. The celebrity voices to "Welcome," "You've Got Mail," etc
I expect to receive an answer via e-mail from AOL to these questions. All of these things were supposed to be ready for use last December.

make it where you can save your font style in chats so when you leave one and enter another you dont have to keep resetting it.

Need more font options

There is a lot of anger here from the respondents. You are totally unresponsive. How many people are thinking of dumping aol after 20 years??? I am one of an exponential number. How sad to have your eulogy be :"You used to be so great!!!!" ........and it WILL be a eulogy.

FONTS
You promised to add more fonts a long time ago. Choices here are graceless, and without personality. More please. Bring back Eurostile!

Bring back the background and text color for writing emails!!!!
Bring back the bigger smiley faces in pink/blue of get some even better ones from the thousands of emojis on the market. Yours are beyond wimpy and pathetic. Sorry!

TOM, FIRST of all
THANK YOU, SO VERY MUCH for YOUR COMMENTS
I TOTALLY AGREE with you
YOU ECHOED EVERYTHING that I HAVE BEEN WANTING to say to AOL
EVER SINCE THEY FIRST ROLLED OUT,
THIS TOTAL,FECKLESS and UNMITIGATED DISASTER that THEY HAVE ERRONEOUSLY LABELLED
AOL DESKTOP*GOLD*
"GOLD"
IT IS *NOT*
"LEAD" is MORE LIKE IT
WITHOUT GETTING ALL OF THE "BUGS" *IRONED OUT, *FIRST*

ALSO
to AOL
#1 IF IT AIN't BROKE
DON't FIX it
THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG w/ OUR BELOVED AOL 9.8.2
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO AND MESS IT UP for ALL of us
#2 WHY DIDNt YOU GET ALL OF THE "BUGS" IRONED OUT
INSTEAD OF USING *US* (your LONGTIME,LOYAL & FAITHFUL (PAYING) AOL Customers
as GUINEA PIGS for YOUR STUPID BETA TESTING
OR, WHATEVER U call this MESS that U UNCEREMONIOUSLY DUMPED on us
BEFORE YOU SPRUNG THIS WORTHLESS & PRIMITIVE GARBAGE on us
AND
YES
I use the word
"PRIMITIVE"
ADVISEDLY
AND
I SEE
I am NOT THE ONLY Customer who has used it
WE NEED U to BRING BACK OUR AOL EXACTLY the way it USED to be
with OUR BELOVED "EXPRESSIONS" ("STATIONERIES") that WE USED TO BE ABLE TO APPLY WITH ONE CLICK to the backgrounds of our e-mails
BTW
THEY WERE ARTISTIC, CREATIVE,WHIMSICAL, and PROFESSIONAL looking
BTW
THEY TOOK UP THE ENTIRE PAGE, NOT JUST PART of the page
OUR BIRDS
FLOWERS
RAINBOWS
ANGELS
MUSICAL NOTES
SHEET MUSIC
PIANO KEYS
Et Cetera, Et Cetera
I ALSO want to say, THAT:
I, MYSELF
am NOT a WOMAN, HAPPY, WITH CHANGE
(as I SUSPECT, MOST OF YOUR OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE NOT, EITHER
WE LIKE THINGS
THE WAY THEY WERE
ESPECIALLY, IF THEY WERE NOT BROKEN, to BEGIN with
BTW
HOW MANY *FAVOURABLE* comments, have you received, ON YOUR "COCKAMAMIE" "GOLD"
and HOW MANY *UN-FAVOURABLE* comments, have you received on it
I HAVE READ ALL OF THE COMMENTS TO DATE Wednesday 4/4/2018
SO
I REST MY CASE
WE (ALL) WANT IT (ALL) BACK
"LOCK, STOCK, AND BARREL"
EXACTLY THE WAY that it USED TO BE
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TAKE OUR BELOVED AOL 9.8.2 to say NOTHING OF, ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF AOL (back to *7*) AWAY from us
WHY COULDNt YOU HAVE JUST LEFT "WELL ENOUGH, ALONE"
TO CONTINUE
WE ALSO MISS ALL OF THE LITTLE "EmotiCons", DIRECTLY ON THE WriteMail TOOL-BAR
WE AOL CUSTOMERS ARE NOT CHILDREN, I, MYSELF go back with U, ALMOST 15 yrs
and I have read Comments from OTHER AOL Customers who have been with U for OVER 20 yrs
SO, YOU CANt PULL THE WOOL OVER OUR EYES
WE (ALL) feel as if we have been
*RIPPED OFF*:
"HI-JACKED":
*DECEIVED*:
*PLAYED* FOR *FOOLS*:
and
"SCAMMED & FLIM-FLAMMED"
WE (ALL) HAVE BEEN WITH YOU for A VERY LONG TIME
AND WE (ALL) RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN QUALITY
AND "DREK" (*GAR-BAZHE" )
BTW
I want to say RIGHT HERE & NOW
I HAVE READ AT LEAST A FEW-HUNDRED COMMENTS
MAYBE MORE
from OTHER AOL CUSTOMERS
BUT I HAVE A VERY *DEEP* FEELING--that I (WE) SPEAK FOR MILLIONS OF OTHER AOL CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE ALSO been with U for A VERY LONG TIME, AND, for WHATEVER REASONS that they have
HAVE ELECTED to NOT TAKE
"PEN TO PAPER"
OR, "FINGERS, TO KEY-BOARD"
BUT, PERHAPS
IF YOU CONTINUE THIS *INFERIOR* SERVICE
(IN TIME)
THEY WILL DECIDE to
NOT ONLY THAT
THEY WILL (AS I AM *THINKING* of doing)
DECIDE TO LOOK ELSEWHERE for their ISP's
TO CONTINUE:
WE (SOME of us, anyway)
ARE "SENIOR CITIZENS"
BUT, WE ARE *NOT*:
1:*BLIND*
OR
2:**********.
DONt PATRONIZE US, OR INSULT OUR INTELLIGENCE and TRY TO CONVINCE US that THIS "MESS" IS *BETTER* than ANY PREVIOUS VERSION, OF OUR AOL ESPECIALLY, OUR BELOVED 9.8.2
THE BEST, EVER
BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW BETTER
IT IS *NOT*
TO CONTINUE
WE can RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE, IN THE SIZE, QUALITY & NUMBER of THOSE (PATHETIC, ANEMIC) "EmotiCons" that you have, NOW--as opposed to the way that they USED to be within the last *10* (OR SO) yrs
AS WELL AS, ALL OF THE DIFFERENT COLORS, FOR THE THE FONT & BACKGROUND
BTW, I WANT THE BACKGROUND COLOR to FILL UP THE ENTIRE PAGE, LIKE IT USED to do
NOT JUST LINE BY LINE as they do, in "HOT-MAIL" & "YAHOO"
(*PRIMITIVE* & *CHILDISH*
I feel as if I am back in GRADE SCHOOL it LOOKS SO TACKY
And THE PLAIN WHITE back-ground IS SO BORING
ALSO
BRING BACK THE FEATURE THAT SUPPORTED *3rdParty Apps*
LIKE THE *OLD* "Smiley-Central" that HAD OVER 10,000(REALLY COOL WHIMSICAL and FUNNY) EmotiCons
AS WELL AS THE APP' FROM "IncrediMail"
I am talking abut, THE ONE THAT HAD THE BUTLER "JEEVES"
DELIVERING THE MAIL and SAYING
"YOUR MAIL, Sir"
ASAP
OTHERWISE, WE (YOUR LOYAL, FAITHFUL
LONGTIME
BREAD AND BUTTER Customers will be FORCED TO LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR ALTERNATIVE ISPs

it would be better if there a re a lot of fonts like the old aol

i cant transfer photographs from picasso to aol directly

we want the same features that we had on the aol desktop 9.8.2 to be transferred to the aol dg

We need the smiley's with choices- the ones we have now are ugly and there is no choice like before. BEFORE we had all these cute smileys to pick from.
?
NOW- THIS IS THE UGLY SMILEY WE GET: ? NO OTHER CHOICES

Change the awful font, have no idea how you selected something so visually clunky and unattractive.

GO BACK TO 9.8....IT WORKED...GOLD DOES'T!!!! When trying to save a link to send to myself, it won't...WTF???? Along with no choice in real fonts...WTF!!!!! I, along with hundred of others, absolutely HATE Gold...why don't you get it??? Some real morons you all must be!!!

HOW DISCUSTING= YOUR OMITTING MOST ALL OF THE FONTS & THE GREAT COLOR CHART. AS THE SECRETARY & SIGN DESIGNER FOR OUR CLUB, I CAN NO LONGER DO MY JOB CORRECTLY & AS ELEGANTLY AS I COULD WITH 9.8.
==> EXPLAIN TO US- JUST WHAT THE H%^@ HAVE U DONE? JUST WHERE IS THERE ANY DARN IMPROVEMENT W/ GOLD ? AOL`ERS...WE GOT THE SHAFT !!!

Open us email to us type faces that are on the individual's computer, not just the ones you chose!
