I agree with RedBull_ar's first post. That was the first thing i noticed and the pictures were not in correspondence with the names.
Another thing what i would like to mention is something related to the replies on a particular thread. The wordings in a post are so close to the line above it, there's just no gap. Its looking kinda weird as in the words are enclosed between lines above and below them. Its more prominent in one-line replies.
Apart from that, i think a change is always good. It'll take time, but hopefully the new features will make it more user friendly than the previous version !
