LJ sucks!

So ever since, I don't know when, I can not find any customizing links, to edit friends or the layout of the LJ. the pages are still obviously there, but not on the front page. I've looked and looked! and I would like to change my comment text if that's OK, but obviously not, cos I can't even find the damn pages!
When i go praising this site, I have to go back on my words now because it's turning into a bit of a mess. where the heck are these damn links meant to be found? *grrrr* stupid LJ!
til next time, RdFreak
