this new layout is a HGUE mistake.  changing the profiles like this is probably one of the worst ideas YT has ever had.  There is no creativity, no personality... NOTHING.  I used to love going to other peoples channels to see their personality through there main page.  Thats what made me stay to watch their videos.  I think now... everyones channel is going to look the same and i wont care to find new channels that interest me.  Its too confusing now, and i will probably just stick to the people i watch now.  Dont change soemthing that isnt broken.  Im really upset with this new change because youtube is a HGUE part of my life (career wise)  and i can see that going down the drain with this new layout.  When something about a website changes THIS DRASTICALLY people get turned off... they dont want to take the time to figure it out... and they will move on.  Simple as that.  I think you are going to lose ALOT of people with this... which is really sad.  Keep it simple youtube.  the reason why YT became so popular to begin with was its simplicity and easy to use practicality!  why change that!!  you are risking ALOT!!!!!!!!!

 

KEEP THE OLD YT!!!
