Gmail rolls out New Look: Lot of improvements in the UI front. My guess is most of us would have switched to the new look. Now tell me how many of you liked it as a whole upgrade? A change is always resisted (Human tendency) but other than psychology, how many of u really think its welcome upgrade from Google?
Let me know your comments, if you didn't like any specific feature or look.
For me, i liked the upgrades they did on the technology side, but the icon's and placement are confusing and make it a bit difficult for even long time Gmail users like me(i started using Gmail when it started got invite from an Australian whom i helped, transferring her photos to her PC at a cyber cafe)

Yeah it is cool.I liked the new look of Gmail very much. As soon as the notification for new look got I just checked it out and for my amazement I liked it. Also the customization is better and also some new themes are added as well. Also I think the loading time for the site is reduced a bit.

I like the new look. It can be customized as well. I choose a theme which I liked best.
One thing I hope is more theme designs to be made available for users to select.
Cheers.

Yeah, themes are good, they have added new ones too. Themes are not innovative though, it was already there in the previous versions too.

I haven't tested it. As a matter of fact I did not notice the change too so far. Normally I just look for the mails and be done with it. Now that you roused my inquisitiveness I shall look pointedly for the new introductions and then come back with my comments.

I don't like it and changed it back to the old one.
I am not a technological person and I hated the icon used instead of the words. It is much easier if you can read it.
May be I am too old and set in my ways, i.e. the old gmail ways. I don't like the new one. The old one suited me fine. Don't get me wrong, I don't always resist change. I use Windows 7 instead of the Windows XP that I was used to.
