The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

New YouTube Skin

I just got on to YouTube and noticed that it was different.

What do you all think of the new look?

As for myself, I'm not sure.  I'm too used to the old look.  I'm sure I can adjust in time, but it's still a little unsettling.

For once YouTube actually did something good.  Usually they just change shit just to change it.  But now it's sleek and modern.  I say good job.  I do NOT like however that everything's not centered.  What's the point of having a nice big screen with a high resolution if everything's just scrunched up on the left side of the screen?  That's not such a good change.  But I love the change in the actual player itself.

Do they seriously have to keep changing every 6 months? I'll get used to it, I guess. It's way too white/bright for me though.

The homepage is automatically said to 'what to watch' instead of subscriptions... Annoying :/

I tend to adjust quickly whenever Youtube changes its look, so it doesn't bother me too much. My only complaint is that it feels harder to see just videos submitted by the people I subscribed to, and in order from earliest first down. Now they seem intermingled with recommended videos, comments the people I subscribed to posted, things they favorited, etc. That isn't what I want. I want only the videos they themselves submitted and in descending order.

^^To set it back up to that, do the following.

Click "My Subscriptions" on the left and then click "Uploads Only" near the top.

Yeah, I am starting to adjust myself.  It'll just take some time. :)

They do seem to change.   The way I see it if I don't like their current skin, it's ok, I can put up with it till they change it.  If I like it I'll enjoy it till they change it then see if I like that one or not.
