Holy crap...the interface is BUTT UGLY. It came up orange by default, and I almost threw up. Are the UI designers over in Seattle all smoking something?

(By the way, if anybody still wants an invite, just e-mail [email protected] and I'll hook you up.)

It came up as a royal purple for me!!!!! Wow, kind of ugly.

I'm playing with the paint thing now, took me about 5 minutes to find where they relocated it, I thought they got rid of it when I didn't see it on the top.

Anyone find a good color, if so what hex is it. I'm trying to find something that looks nice.

What else is new with this? Anything. Or did they just drop a few things and change the looks. Like the contact list doesn't bounce around / expand anymore.

Edit: Actualy, after changin the colors a lot. The royal purple or royal blue, its kind of half way inbetween the two look. Is the best color I have seen, nothing else looks good, or is eassy on my eyes. I just don't like any color combination.

Don't worry people, there will be enough people kicking up a stink at connect to make them re-think the UI a little ;) .

I sure hope so. I MUCH prefer the 7.5 UI to this one. Come to think of it, I recall mentioning the fact that I liked the 6.2 UI much better than the 7.0 UI when it came out.

I guess things just take time to grow on you. I'm sure we'll all be used to this new UI soon enough.

I'd have to agree with everyone's comments here. They seriously messed it up. The previous build looked more finished than this crap. The old status icons just don't fit in, and the UI doesn't look as refined.

What did you do?!?!?!?

How often does this happen?

Always Happens

I guess the UI is one of those features of a program which "always happens", eh?

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.

      Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price by Taras Buria Having a Stream Deck-like device next to your keyboard could be a massive productivity boost. It lets you map specific actions and shortcuts to speed things up, and Logitech has such a device for you with a big 20% discount. Right now, you can save $40 on the Logitech MX Creative Console. The MX Creative Console is an unconventional accessory that consists of two modules. One module has nine customizable buttons, with each having a built-in display for mapping. You can assign apps, shortcuts, actions, or something else. There are nine buttons, plus two more for switching between "pages" of actions. The second module has no displays. Instead, there is a big twisting knob and a small roller for precise adjustments in creative apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity, and more. There are four additional buttons as well. The MX Creative Console is available in two colors: Graphite and Pale Gray. Both are now 20% off, saving you $40. Just keep in mind that the MX Creative Console requires the Logitech Options+ app, which is only available on Windows and macOS. By the way, each unit comes with three months of Adobe Creative Cloud.

      Because someone else reported theirs was unusable, genius. But being a Linux user you should be used to that. Next time you think you have a "gotcha", check first.
