A few of the problems I have been experiancing are as follows:

Unable to re-verify my main account ("Ben") because the verification code I was e-mailed won't work. I can't seem to find any way to resend another one and there is nothing I can do to get back into the account.

I also can't send PM's with this account, which is making it extremely difficult to get in contact with an admin about this problem. Whenever I try to send one it tells me I need to agree to the terms of sending PM's, yet I can't find any way of doing this.

Please help Tom!!

Sorry for the DP, I meant this bit doesn't work on the level 60 because there is no Dark, Fab, Evil, etc.
You could also fix it by uploading level 60 fab/dark etc but as the same picture (eg. level60N.gif).

Knowing Newgrounds the way I do, I knew that the redesign would only take a matter of hours. Take any other site and they may take up to a week just to redesign the site but not Newgrounds. Oh no, Newgrounds always has the people in mind. At first, I was overwhelmed by all the new additions but now that the hype has passed, I actually enjoy all the new features, the extra bells and whistles. With the old design, it would be easy to think why NG would need a staff... With this new design, a staff is necessary in order to maintain a site of such high class.

There are some quirks and I did run across a few errors at first but in the long run, I am sure that these will all be taken care of. No biggie. I am loving the audio portal now, the ability to add audio artists to favorites, and adding songs to favorites as well. Although the ability to vote everyday on songs is a nice idea, zero voters are going to be more rampant than ever but, what can you do? I really like the new profile system and the levels are fantastic and sexy.

OH!! You took away to rate different factors in the written reviews? Wow.. I'm really shocked at that one.. You have the 1 to 5 voting for a "general" review.. This does not make sense to me.

Actually, another thing that I didn't like (and well hate) is the password.
Maximum of 10 characters AND has to have both letters and numbers.
I know it's all in the interest of safety but my new password sucks because of it :P Plus, it used to be max 10 characters anyway... with the introduction of the numbers, shouldn't the max be a little more?

The whole redesing is great! My favourite part is the new flagging review system. The page doesn't reload after we flag a review anymore. Also, the page is loading faster. In the beginning, the pages took a minute to open because the server was overloaded. But now it takes less than 5 seconds! Awesome!

I'd have to say that one of the really cool things about the redesign is all the sleeker buttons, links, and the overall sleek look. I'm not much for the grungy-kinda page look, but I'd have to say it looks and functions much better than the old newgrounds layout. Also, the one thing that I really dislike about the redesign is that you took away the ability to rate the graphics, style, and such, and now there's only the overall score. But it's all good, I'm growing to enjoy it more and more as I use it, and have already began to notice that it's running better than yesterday.
Thanks for all the hard work, I really appreciate it!

Also, now that everyone has had a chance to look around, tell us what your FAVORITE part of the redesign is. And as much as I hate to invite bad news, tell us what your LEAST FAVORITE part is, too... Unless you just LOVE IT ALL, which is fine by me. :)

Well i love the userpages and the levels/auras but my 2 thisngs i don't like are no .GIF's in sigs that sucks and well i think i'm supposed to be lv 9 since i was when i was on old NG. and since there are now 60 levels shouldn't i be lv. 18 not level 8?

My favourite part is probably that Reviews and Whistle power is supposed to contribute to VP.

Least favrourite so far, is that I have to have numbers etc. in my password to get a new aura, change information etc.

I like the new graphics and all. The bytesize thing on frontpage is awsome, its cool to see Adam Philips and TheSwain contributing like that.

But I can't change anything that requires my password because it won't read it, because it doesn't follow the 6 digits, I can log in and stuff, but now I can't even change my password.

Whoa its me!

I don't like that the submissions don't show in a proper pop-up, i like to be able to continue surf NG when the movie is loading without having to open a new tab.

Anyway that's just a minor thing, everything looks great.

Good to see change already!

I love:
The layout.
In page flash viewing.
Personal pages.
The general feel of the BBS.

I don't like:
All the new emotocons (or what ever they are called)
Laggy posting (whatever has a characters remaining count)
Overtime does not roll over to the next day.
After voting on a flash, you don't see the last review.
The way reviews are now set up (more on that maybe later).
Purple in the portal...

I can't wait for all of the issues to be fixed so NG will be even more enjoyable.

If a man that always tells the truth comes up to you and says that another man always tells lies, and the man who always lies come up to you and says "I'm lying", then is he?

The whole damn thing is pretty cool if you ask me. I can forgive the bugs. It's just nice to see this redesign online.

i love the way it looks, but i have a somewhat unique problem-
i am colorblind, and i can't tell the colors for under judgment apart from the color for an awesome score, which takes away a lot of the ease of use.

The new design looks pretty sweet, and besides a few bugs, I'm lovin' it, espeacially that sexy new Audio Portal.

However, a couple of things that really irk me are:

-The site header buttons seem to be a step back from the previous version. I'm not sure why, but seem to be a lot more off than anything else.

-4 out of 5 times, the on-screen flash player causes my browser to crash, so I'm stuck with the old fashioned pop-up player.

just click the pop-up button below the link, and it pops up!

The best update so far,my favorite thing about it would have to be either the layout itself or the new levels,there pretty much isn't anything i don't like about the redesign except for what little things that can be fixed in the near future.
