  1. What?? they redesigned it… AGAIN? wt… the last time they did such thing was like somewhat last summer… :\ im more used to the older design

  2. not good, couldn’t stand the ugly new look for even 5 seconds….. >_<
    switched back to default…..

  3. It’s like YouTube also adopting like Microsoft the “Metro Philosophy” i.e. simple layout design and big tiles.

  4. Forget this. How do you make Firefox13 stop saving every page in the new tab interface other than browsing in private mode?

  5. ^^ Its different. Its not cosmicpanda UI.

    @KTown
    In about:config, change value of browser.newtab.url to about:blank

  6. Didn’t try that one out but when I got to YouTube (June 23, 2012) I get a completely different homepage. Typed in youtube.com and it redirected me to youtube.com/lohp

  7. ^^ It was there for some time because Google was testing new layout for YouTube. Now its not working.

  8. Dear VG,
    Help me, Until now I can have the new design. I’m using IE10, even the other browser can’t have it now! Please help me!
