Youtube Redesign

[ArtVandelay]

Anyone else finding this redesign awful? No star rating system which I used to find useful in gauging whether a video was as described or not before watching it and the layout is just a whitewash of blandness.

This isn't a case of fixing something that wasn't broken, it's more like finding out something is broken and stting on it to fix it, it's still broken but now it stinks of st too

I see no difference, still looks the same to me.

I'm using http://www.youtube.com/ is it a .co.uk change?

It's fine for me too, still on the old style.

You have to activate the 'beta' version. I am using it, and although it's the same videos, etc, it is harder to actually get e regular link. Plus, if you look at a vid in your subscription list, it automatically starts the next one, which is a bit annoying,and I can't see how to turn it off. Still, it's HTML5, which is good. They'll figure it out eventually. If you volunteered to use it, as I did, you cen send them info, and stuff you like, hate, etc.

I didn't realise I'd volunteered

I just don't like the look of it really, I'll send them my thoughts on it...perhaps I should just copy my original post

Done by the same people who have redesigned Auto Trader?

Has this not been in development for quite a while now. Isn't this the same as XHTML? To think that an HTML update hasn't come since just over a decade ago before the whole internet boom.
