New Youtube Layout

I found this out today on march 13th. The Youtube layout has been changed for the videos themselves; this includes movement of the description and that related area (now moved to the right of the video), removal of the scrolling related videos (instead now just being listed to the bottom of the page), movement of the more videos button (now at the top of the page), a new "like" vote, among others.

So, how is everyone's feedback on this new layout? I like it, though I never knew when it was coming. Plus, whenever I try to imput a search term during a video, the video pauses as you write it, though this is just because of a new system where you watch your video while the search results page loads. So, I'd like feedback posted on here.

This. This is why YouTube has gone down in quality in the last year. They have changed too much when everyone was satisfied.
I can't see any difference.Free counters!

It WAS actually different this morning ...

Well, I personally liked it - made it look cooler. Well, I like change, so I might be one of the few who do. I don't know why they revereted it again though; probably some sort of coding error.

i just lurk sometimes
It's been drifting back and forth between these layouts for a few weeks. I'm a major fan of the new one, to be honest; it looks cleaner and a lot of the features are quite nice, including the fact that I can keep one video playing while searching for others, so multitab browsing is a lot easier. (Before, the search bar didn't work with multi-tab browsing...

Anyways, I'm a fan for the most part, except that the video upload button took me a minute to find. Otherwise, I quite like it.

I haven't gotten a new layout.
Tough about 2 weeks ago I had a different layout for videos for 1 day.
I really hope they don't use that one, I really disliked it.

I want the old one back. I hate it to have the description and stuff below the video. And the "Next Video" mode is always turned on, sa after the video has finished the next video immediately starts.
Anyone knows how to turn that off?
I thought the new one was OK, if a little plain-looking, but I preferred the old one... which they have now apparently switched back to. Make up your minds!
I hated the new one.
I didn't mind the new layout when I saw it for the first time. For me it was more of a Whoa, this is different and nothing more. It takes a bit but it's alright.
Incidentally I've only seen the new layout in Firefox, I've never seen it with Safari 4. A very strange coincidence if you ask me...

I actually really like a lot of changes youtube made, especially the new channels, they're a lot easier now everyone's used to them, the only issue I really have is youtubeXL on the wii but fuck that, and how since youtube started frequently 'improving' things there've been a lot more glitches and bugs occurring.

Disarray! ALL 120 OF MY FUCKING YOUTUBE VIDEOS GOT REMOVED FUCKING COPYRIGHT WRYYYYYYY! ANGRY FAIC! Don't we all love it when that happens?
Your layout has been removed.
Ever since I joined, I don't think there's been a single change I didn't dislike.

Patchiblock does not approve of Youtube's recent actions.
Never saw it, but from what I can hear the description below the video seems a bit awkward, I'd prefer to stick to what we have now. And if it does change, I can guarantee this will bring up yet another flame war about it in the videos about why it sucks.
As long as I can watch videos and edit certain stuff, like what to show on top and bottom, I'm fine. A bit annoyed that I can't remove featured videos currently (with the old layout). I've heard that the new layout doesn't work too well with Opera, but I haven't seen it for myself yet.

I'm hoping they don't make HTML5/H.264 the only way to view high quality content eventually, because then I'm pretty much forced to use a different browser for YouTube. They're really pressing on that issue.

I wonder why I never see the JavaScript ads though (when logged in). I'm fairly sure other people with accounts have complained about ads before, but perhaps they weren't logged in. I'm happy with it at least, as pre-clip ads is one of the most annoying things on the net. Most other annoyances can be blocked.

Do any of you see video ads while logged in on YouTube?
