Is there any way I can get back to ios6 on my iPad? The new ios7 is a major disappointment, especially visually, and would love to "downgrade" back to ios6. Any advice how to do this?

Is there any way to downgrade back to ios6 from the new ios7? I made a major mistake in downloading the new operating system. It is a major disappointment, particularly visually, and would love to get back to the more user friendly ios6 on my iPad. Last time I experienced a similar disappointment was when I tested the new Microsoft 8. In that case I was luckily able to stick to the previous operating system.
