    I like it, it'll take a bit of getting used to but now that I have my Cloud scheme I'm a happy bunny.

    Re: "New smilies"
    Is it just that I'm more blind than I thought or are the smilies the exact same?

    I agree, some getting used to... Not overly fond of the new skin... If we could get the old skin on top of the new software?

    There seem to be problem logging in from the main page, in case you didn't know...

    You can't really make a decision after only a few hours. Wait till they get new skins and tweek with it abit.

    I have faith in Cloud. (or he will die)

    I didn't like it at first but I do now. The white style is a bit easier on the eyes. Like the way you can see who is online and what they are reading now :p

    It's weird, but I'll get used to it I suppose.

    Don't like the smilies though, I preferred the flatter-looking ones.

    I get this too, also using Opera. Historically, with the old version, it used to slow Opera to a crawl if multiple windows were open. Didn't do it if JS was disabled. Don't know if this one has fixed that problem - I think it was the menus.

    Other than that I think it's very nice. The full edit window is much easier to use with 'enhanced mode' and the 'quick reply' option is nice too...

    Shoved on the grey theme and I like it. The subbed menus are ALOT clearer, and so are the was threads are marked un/read. I also like the way it marks a thread you just posted in as read, instead of unread because of a new post. [Used to mess up the subbed menus]. I likes it, but then again, I would! :D
