I'm old and resist any change ;)
Guess I'll have to see how it plays out

Only thing I don't like is the screen width, it's too wide for my ancient monitor. I have to scroll sideways to see the whole post and my resolution is set as high as my monitor can tolerate... :-\ :( ???

I'm liking it... some of the images could use a some tweeking (the new smilies scare me). Overall, this is much better.

Searches should be much, much nicer, without all the server timeouts from looking through all those flat files ;)

I like the ability to click on "new" and it takes you right to the new posts in a topic. Saves from scrolling through.

I like it (now that I have found my peaceful center) ;D

BTW the 'Mark as unread' button is not showing up properly on my login, is any one else seeing the text with a red x beside it?

Ugh.  Needs less top of screen bannering.
Have to scroll nearly half a page to get to the good stuff!

Other than that, looking good!

Problem solved!
Firefox adblock, for images and ads, seemed to fix it for me!

Colors are easy on the eyes, but harder to read.  Can't scan the forum for what I'm looking for as easy.  Maybe new format old colors???  I'm with Digger on the monitor thing too :'(

There is a little arrow to the left of the home/help/search buttons. Press it and your personal information disappears.

Scrolling down to find the start of the posts is a bit of a pain. Do we need links to sections of Zukiworld on both the top banner and the bottom of the page. Maybe you could consolidate the Welcome sticky and the Open Letter sticky into one and lose the Water Cooler sticky as that would gain some space. Oh and I have all this empty space on either side like 40% (20% each side) of my screen width with nothing on it.

since this new format showed up i cant log in on my old user name.
if i use the password reminder it says my username does not exist.........
if i try to register using my old username it tells me that name is in use by another member???
WTF is happening??
i had to create a new name AND use another email address as it would not accept either of my old details??
any ideas??

IT seems to take a little longer (dial up) to load than the older pages.  And I kinda miss the blue, other than that, I'm getting used to it.  I like it, Dave ;D
