Significant Changes To Views For Drupal 6

There have been significant changes to the interface for creating views in Drupal 6. This site is based on Drupal 6 and I've had the opportunity to work with the new interface for the first time.

The new process can be a bit confusing so I recommend that you experiment with some sample views before jumping in. Once you get to know the new functionality I think you will find that it is a very nice improvement over previous versions of Drupal.
