Title: You Tube changes
Post by: Lightning on November 27, 2012, 06:16:22 PM
Has anyone noticed the changes on you tube? When I click on my username at the upper right corner of the screen it has my google e-mail address - which I never use, and only gives my the options of adding my account, signing out, or joining google+, it won't give me the options of going to my channel, or anything else I could do yesterday. I don't like it, one bit.  :thumbdown:

Seen it. You can access your channel page with the menu on the left margin.

Did the new layout look like this Brian?

EDIT: Video page where you watch videos looks like this. My main problem is there's too much dead space on the right side than there was before.

Youtube made it standard for everyone this afternoon/evening. I don't care for it as much.

IMO I think the new layout looks awful  :sick: The bar on the top of the screen still has my old avatar with the fireball sun, even though I updated it a while back to my current one with my photo of the Astoria Bridge.

Everyone that uses IE anyway. Still have the old layout in FF.

Chrome as well. You might want to clear your cache/cookies to see the new layout. ;)

Ahh!!! YouTube!  Every time we get used to a new theme, you have to go and change it again.

I've had this for nearly a month or so, but only when I was on Chrome. Firefox and Internet Explorer all had the old layout during this time,  so I mainly used Firefox since I think this is the worst design to date...

They wouldn't be Youtube if they didn't.

True, but they are now changing things that don't need to be changed and people like me are not in favor of it.

Since YouTube is now owned by Google, it's not surprising at all.  Google changes Gmail constantly.  I'm actually glad I left YouTube when I did. :itsok:

That is exactly what it looks like. I don't really mind this change. I do wish that on my channel, it still had the different pages of videos since I have 282 uploads.

I saw the new layout. It's not too bad. But I do agree, don't fix something that isn't broken.

Now it won't let me type my username anymore.  :thumbdown: I have to type in my google gmail address, which I never use.  <_<

I really wish Google would learn to leave things alone for a while. I'm not as upset about Youtube as I am about the latest version of Android. The previous version worked very well and experienced very little lag. Since they can't leave anything alone, of course they had to change that and the result is me now pretty much starting to dislike the OS. Google, what is your problem?   :thumbdown:

I know right? Now I have to use my Windows Live Hotmail address to log in now, damn Google  :angry:

I'm sorry, but are we really complaining about using a log-in change, something that takes maybe a minute to do before you're back to whatever you do on Youtube? I had to change my email log-in too, but I don't see any reason to be upset about it.  :wacko:

If you have auto fill enabled (in Chrome that is) I only have to type in one letter for my email and password. :P
