[up]So your only complaint is "It's new and I'm not used to it!" Got it. Now, what are any actual problems it has, if any?

It's too damn bright. And stupid things are happening when I try to play videos.

Clicking on a video from my favorites opens up a confusing side window on the right.

The Youtube logo and several buttons are rearranged and smaller; the comments have endless scrolling rather than pages, the videos are left-aligned while the add to button is right-aligned, and the amount of white space, especially on the homepage, hurts my eyes.

I don't like it because I used to be able to see both videos from subscriptions and recommended videos on the same page for easy viewing. That's done with.

The page looks squished to the left, with a small vertical bar dedicated to subscriptions and such and the right side having nothing at all. I SUPPOSE I'll get used to it eventually, but I'm more peeved about the changed home page system than anything.

Aside from that, the search function where you could search by most views, rating, upload date and whatever else there was is gone, and I still used that.

[up][up][up][up][up] It's less the specific format I'm upset about, and more the attitude behind it. Like I said, if there's nothing wrong with the original, why change it and confuse people?

Who thought it was a good idea to remove the "sort search results by date in ascending/descending order" function? Who thought that was a good idea?! That's one of the most basic things a search function should have!

Looks like the shuffle option in playlists doesn't work. That's quite annoying.

They didn't have that before? I know iPod Touches and iPhones come with them as one of the stock apps. iPads don't?

Interesting. What exactly happened that they f'ed up with (or if the screwup was taking them out in the first place, do you know why)?

Let's go with 'or something.'

Does youtube have a complaint box?

There's a "send feedback" thing at the bottom of my Youtube screen. I'm not sure if it's universal.

Another complaint: Youtube used to alert me when I had comments by showing an icon on the left of the screen. That doesn't seem to be coming up anymore.

Does anyone else have this problem where, after you click the button for fullscreen again, it goes back to default screen size? It's annoying.

How do you mean? Like, you click fullscreen or double click the video and it goes into fullscreen for a split-second and then goes back to the normal window? That happens a lot for me, but I've just kinda gotten used to it. It's a nuisance, but that's all it really is at worst.

I noticed something REALLY odd—videos clicked from my favorites list are louder than videos without the favorites box.

Does anyone know how you can get the playlist to watch all the videos from a youtube channel in chronological order. It should still be possible. I have it here (although it is bugged. The playlist says the video is Dead Rising 2, but it's a video from earlier in the library), but I can't see any way to get to that point besides already knowing the url.

Every time youtube changes they make that feature harder to find. It's annoying as hell.

Just add "&list=UL" to the end of the video's URL. (I assume you mean watching the videos from a person's channel in order of when they were uploaded?)
