So I just went to Bricklink and suddenly noticed the change of layout...
While I can say I don't really like the look of it, it also degrades the
experience of Bricklink for me. The site looked the same for many years, and
it was great the way it was. So it's not only 'meh' but also feels
like a part of what made Bricklink for me has been robbed and taken away to a
distant galaxy in my mind. My suggestion is to add an option to revert back to
the original layout (I believe there isn't one already), because not only
I but many others would also much prefer the original, no matter the reasons
for it. Where's the Bricklink that I've always known? This is almost
encouraging me to log off and run away...

The words and tabs do look nice and crisp I like that, but pretty much everything
else thumbs down.

Yep. Though I do like the fact you can have the catalog and available items on
one page.

I totaly agree, please give us a option to change the BL to the site it used
to be. This is so ugly.

Yes.

Thank you.

Even PayPal, of all places, has that option. Although the option is available
only(?) for accounts created prior the horrid UI change.

The option of keeping the old format initially after any changes was promised
(so I was told by an attendee) at the Europen roundtable meeting. Somehow that
got scrapped without us being informed.

Shame, I hope they'll implement soon nonetheless...
