    I can find my contacts and inbox from here in the blog and the my video is a deadlink. I don't see any other links in my account. I want to opt in because the message management looks a whole lot nicer than what I have right now.

    Couple of comments about the mail system:

    I really like that it's quicker and MUCH easier to use. However, 2 minor annoyances. There is no trash folder. I accidentally deleted a message with no way to get it back. I'm not sure if there was one before. The other thing is that in the old system you were able to see if someone had read the message or not. I find that helpful, but not completely necessary.

    A good feature would be a way to sort by who the mail was sent by, date, etc...either that, or allow to create some folders to get stuff out of the inbox...i.e. videos you were sent, etc...

    Very interesting beta.
    It's more appealing to the eye, for sure.
    I wonder when this (or something like it) will come into effect.

    If you decide to keep the video thumbnails, it's fine. Otherwise, it's too hard to tell what's what. Maybe an option to turn the thumbnails on or off?

    i really like the new design because it is so simple and clear. but nevertheless i have some suggestions: i think the shared videos looked better with the thumbnails and i miss the option to sort your contact list by date. oh and for some reason it says in my comment folder that i got the comments from myself.
    except for these things i think it's pretty much better than before!

    As far as the contact page goes, my god! such an improvement over the old one. I like how the videos are set up, but liked before you could just see a picture with out opening it, but I guess that saves load time though, which in the end is great. As for the inbox, I like it, but wish* there was a way to delete all, and not just 20 at a time, I finish my mails in mass and would love to just get rid of them all in one go once I am finished reading and responding to them :) but* overall nice design and space saving :P I give it 4.5 outta 5 stars, Holems :P -Cody Rapol(sumfight)

    Oh man, I am correcting some misspelled words of mine right in your blog :P

    Google/Youtube branding will absolutely suffer as a result of not reinstating the XENUTV1 channel.

    Remember, Youtube is both a business and a conduit for freedom of expression and if Youtube is not maintained as an outlet for expression that contains critical opinion then duly mark that as the tipping point that will bring stagnation and decline as the brand becomes tarnished in the eyes of the net.

    So far I really like the new features. I am able to send messages to 25 people at once. What I have come across is that I have a message in pink telling me that the recipient's account is closed but I don't know what recipient it is. I am told which subscriber if they have enabled friend lock so I can remove that person but I don't know which person if the account is closed. How about a feature to automatically purge friends and subscribers who's account are closed.

    I like the old video sharing page better with the thumbnail of video/description of video. But I'm okay with the new one.

    I HATE the new comments page. The old one just took me directly to the new comments posted in a video. This one I have to click on the video and scroll down past (playing) video to view the new comments. Plus, it incorrectly attributes the videos I've commented in as being made by me even though I've made no videos.

    I'm still looking at other changes. Will come back and post when I have an opinion on the other new additions.

    The inbox is a mess. Shared videos and messages ending up in the same place. I prefer to keep them separate. Also, I liked the old sent option. Sometimes I am not always sure if messages go through or have been read, so that was a great feature. Bring it back! I love, love, love the new contacts layout.

    In short contacts layout and my inbox: 5 stars.

    videosharing box: 2 1/2 stars

    message inbox: 2 stars

    comments page: 1 star.

    I find it odd that you folks posted a blog update on a Saturday. It appears that Youtube/Google may be attempting to push the other blog entries further down the page.

    Why would they do this? The answer is simple: so that people checking this blog are less likely to click on an entry that has dozens of comments critical of the company. Namely, the comments condemning Youtube/Google for their recent censorship of documentary filmmaker Mark Bunker.

    Mr. Bunker's account, xenutv1, was recently suspended. The timing of this suspension is very peculiar, as Mr. Bunker was about to break a huge story. Namely, he was about to release an interview he did with actor Jason Beghe, a high-profile defector from the controversial organization called Scientology.

    This is VERY peculiar, as the Scientology organization has often used the legal system to harass anyone who criticizes them. It seems likely that this is the reason Mr. Bunker's account was suspended.

    I love it all except the description area. It should really be bigger then 3 lines. Perhaps 7 - 10 lines would be better so it is easier to edit and easier to read over as your writing it.

    That one annoyance aside it looks great.

    I'm sorry to say, but I really hate the new inbox... (1) There is no preview anymore, something which was very useful when searching for a specific message. (2) Sometimes you send a message, without expecting a reply, but you do like to know if the recipient has read the message, something which isn't possible anymore...

    More work should be done on video quality, your search function, and making it easier for people to find related videos.

    Why not add a Site-wide tagging game ala' Google to improve your tags as well as video relations?

    The inbox has long needed an overhaul, so way-to-go, YouTube! Shame that its heavy reliance on Ajax means that it only works on browsers that support Javascript - you COULD do this so that it works in all browsers with a page refresh, but its enhanced with Ajax for those who do have Javascript turned on (admittedly most people), rather than reliant on it. It's known as progressive enhancement, and it's not a new concept... http://adactio.com/journal/959

    Changes I would like:

    Inbox: get rid of the shared display where u see comments, emails and vids. Very untidy. Bring back preview pane pls
    My videos: make viewing the comments work as it currently does. Delete time column and put comment counter in a this would be more useful. Under playlist, list the playlists so I can click on specific playlist instead of clicking on playlist then on specific playlist.
    I love the new look for contacts and my videos in particular.

    The InBox doesn't come up in Safari (v2.0.4). It does come up in FireFox.

    The comment subject lines could be a little smarter: a comment I've made on someone else's video shows up as "A comment has been made on your video: [their video name]" It isn't my video, it is theirs! Clarifying this will also allow the user to separate comments they've made from comments they've received, especially if the "Subject" heading is clickable for sorting.

    I looked at everything, it looks good but you can hardly call it testing when the only way to get to the new features is through the blog. Too much clicking and waiting to really test anything.

    Just an idea, it's happened to me that I want to put all the videos I have under a certain Favorites list in another one, but some videos end up appearing twice in the list. it would be nice that you could change this so that if you add a video to a playlist that already has the video, it won't appear twice. I didn't know where to suggest this, so that's why I'm writing here.

    Cheers, youtube rocks

    PLEASE, YouTube people, the 'View All' in My Recent Comments was a blessing. Especially with the quick display of the pluses/minuses. Yeah, that is basically my livelihood, being a recycled humanist and all that. And is it better if you reorganize comments in 'nested' form, so replies to comments wouldn't look like sudden retorts? Thanks!

    I like the new designed but I would also like to see the following.

    1. A Mark As Read button. So, I can select a bunch of message at once and mark them as read.

    2. You need to make sure you ask people are they sure they want to delete a video. I think for partners they should be force to do a Capcha especially if you allow us to do it in batches now.

    3. I would like to see how many times a video has been favorite under My Videos along with the number of views and comments and rating.

    4. You should be able to sort your contacts by approved and pending. It would be cool to see all the pending contacts you have at one time. So you can remove them at one time if you want too.

    5. Also, you should have the option to set as video for 18 years old or older. Sometimes, you want too make a video for adults only. This should be treated separately from a video being flagged.

    6. I would also like to see an option to say I don't want to recieve videos from this person but I still want to be their friend. I might want that person to be able to comment on my videos and my channel and send me message if I use friend lock but I don't want to recieve videos from them.

    7 You need to change the video watch screen share tab to bring up the standard share on Youtube first and then Myspace and Facebook.

    8. This doesn't have anything to do with features but Youtube should a create a Most Subscribed Unsigned Musician list because so many major musicians are coming on to Youtube. It just a matter of time before only a very small number of Unsigned youtube musicians will be on the All Time Most Subcribed musician list. It has drop from 60 to 39 in the just the last couple of months.

    -I like the old way bc on the lower left was the 2 buttons to pause and restart vs now where the restart vid is gone.
    -I like the old way bc on the lower right was 2 buttons 2 choose viewing size small or full screen vs now the only choice is full screen.

    Pls put back the 'HISTORY' link on the upper right of the main page instead on 'QUICKLIST'.

    I checked your new beta pages and honestly I wasn't all that impressed. The 'video beta page' is decent.

    If that is the new look you're going for, then at least make sure you still provide a comments link. I noticed there's no html link for the comments. That way people will still be able to directly access the main comment page w/o having to click on the video itself and THEN click on the comments link. It's saves an extra step and makes things go a bit quicker.

    I think I like where the new design is going. However, there were some key features that seem to be missing from this new system:
    1)There are no links to a comment page anywhere that I can find. I like being able to go to "My Videos" and got to an individual video and click to see all of it's comments and nothing else. I'm set up as a broadcaster and it's important to me to keep the view count as accurate as I can, so I like not having to go to my video to see the comments.

    2) Just like the comments link, the video response link also appears to be missing. Another thing I think is necessary.

    3) I looked all over the place and I can't find the embed code anywhere. I do a lot of outside embedding and I absolutely need that code.

    4) I think the inbox needs a mark-as-read button.

    5) I'd love to be able to re-order my subscribers and my subscriptions. And I don't just mean giving them labels. I'd like to be able to order my subscribers for public view in an order different than the order they subscribed. Same with my subscriptions.

    Well, those are my thoughts. Keep up the good work!

    Hi, I'm a new user of youtube and really enjoy it. One quirk I found (and I don't see any plans of this being fixed here) is that the thumbnails or video stills that are picked for you are rather random. I uploaded a video of me showing a house to a buyer (I'm a realtor), and the three choices of video stills to represent my video were mostly ceiling shots! I'm not going to make this video public anyway because it's only for my clients, but still, I'm curious how are these stills chosen and I'd love to know if in the future there might be a way to generate/choose your own still or at least have a button that would generate three new stills to choose from. Thanks!

    One more thing, because I don't know where else to put it. BRING BACK MOVING ICONS! These type of icons are unique, very creative and some of them, like member RichardNorton and his deceased Goldie, they are heartwarming. His icon is a tribute to his first Bengal cat. Goldie was loved by all of her fans here at YouTube, most of whom never met her personally, but who miss seeing her strut in that little icon box! Bring Goldie BACK! Please?

    Frankly, I don't care about any so-called new features until the stuff that's been broken for way too long is fixed. Meanwhile, QUIT CHANGING THE RULES. What's going on with the Profile Picture (aka avatar) functionality? Who decided that profile pictures must now conform to a 96 x 96 pixel square format? And why aren't the instructions for uploading a new profile picture consistent and clear?

    What do you want? What are the exact, foolproof specs? I uploaded a new 96 x 96 avatar. YouTube cropped it. This is bullsh*t. Just tell us how to upload an avatar that YouTube won't mess with.

    I can't even begin to detail how pissed off I am with YouTube at the moment. Hours of my life are lost forever, as I try to 'update' avatars for dozens of clients and friends... all because some jerk at YouTube decided to change the rules in an arbitrary and cavalier manner. YouTube is teaching me to hate the net... and corporations like Google who own it.

    Don't mess with your user's branding specs without asking first. Don't add new features until you've fixed the broken stuff. Fix the stuff that never worked in the first place. QUIT CHANGING THE RULES until you have a clear understanding of the consequences.

    A redundant complaint. I hate the new comments section. It is saying two videos have been commented on in my comments section. However, due to this new layout, I can't make heads or tails which two videos have been commented on. I am not going to open every video just to view the new comments.

    I like/have adjusted to everything but the stupid comment section. Can't I selectively beta what I do and don't like so I can have a mix of the old and new features on my channel. The comments section drives me nuts. I can forgive it for existing only because I love the Contacts listing and setup. That is awesome. It almost makes up for the terrible layout of the comments section.

    This isn't a complaint regarding the new features but a bug that's been around for some time and still hasn't been fixed yet: I have a pretty fast internet connection (16.000 kBit/s DSL) which works perfectly fine otherwise, and yet on your site videos take forever (!) to load. I mean: 12 minutes loading time for a 5:00 video (while nothing else is running / downloading)?! You've *got* to be kidding me! And it's been like that ever since your last update on April 11. Me and a lot of other people I know are already using other video sites instead of YouTube, as the service you're currently providing is totally unusuable to us. Please fix that, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

    Support widescreen. Simple as that. If I upload a video in 16:9 format, it should broadcast (including in high definition) in 16:9. I shouldn't have to add letterboxing or change my video to 4:3 before upload. Let's get with the times, YouTube.

    Put a proper timed progress bar for uploading video. Recently when I've been trying to upload video the Uploading... star has been turning for hours on end & I've given up on the upload but I don't know if it's 20 seconds from completion or 20 hours or just not working, a bit more information would be a great help, thankyou.

    let me put this simply. the new inbox sucks. I was so happy when it returned back to the old one, but then it switched back to the new one! :( I can't even see the whole message when I'm replying back to someone because its cut off, and viewing comments on my videos take more clicks than they should be and used to be, which is very inefficient. I just can't get used to it! :( CHANGE IT BACK!!!!

    please DON'T launch the full release, it would be a very bad idea. the only extremely inconvenient part of it for me, though, is the inbox. i don't get why u guys think the new inbox is so much "easier" to manage. well, its not. DON'T go through with it!

    THANK god i found this!! I really dislike the new inbox thing. You have totally taken away the uniqueness. I also find it boring, colorless and harder to read.

    I like being able to see users profile pictures beside their name.

    I also find it hard to get done what I'm wanting to. It is definitely a little more time consuming now.

    PLEASE put it back to how it was.

    Why change things that don't NEED to be changed??

    I know you can come up with better things than that.

    I am very disappointed that youtubers don't even get a chance to know what is going on before it even happens, unless they happen to find THIS blog or were unlucky to experience the beta version...

    There's a MAJOR FLAW with the new Inbox/PersonalMessages/Sent: All words in "quotation marks" are practically illegible, including those in old messages that were sent/received months ago. "Video titles", "quotes", "user names", "headings", "references", "pseudo-words", anything "emphasized" -- everything that had or has "quotation marks" is now swamped with ugly """s everywhere. Please fix this flaw that renders many messages almost unintelligible, and we'll forgive the loss of our thumbnails and semi-preview panes.

    There are several comical flaws with the "Comments" section of the new "Inbox": .....1) Every single "Comment" or "Reply" I have received is falsely attributed to me, as though I stupidly comment or reply to myself all the time. .....2) Every single "Subject" heading begins with "A comment has been made on your video" even though I've never posted a video in my life. .....3) Every single one of those very same "Subject" headings is also all filled with the same needless and repetitive words, leaving precious little space for the actual video title. As such, we're probably better off with our MS Outlook, because not only does it give us the full title of the video, it also tells us WHO commented or replied. .....4) If you really want to help us YouTubers with our comments, how about fixing the old and continuing bugs such as .....A) Why do many of our comments often appear double, or even triple? .....B) Why do many of our comments not appear at all on the comments pages, but magically appear when we click on "View all comments"? .....C) Why do many of our "REPLIES" to comments end up at the top of "most recent comments" rather than below the comment we're actually "REPLYING" to? Everything looks disjointed, and we all look like idiots. .....D) Why do many of our comments totally disappear in the giant time vacuum between the first 2 pages of comments? .....E) Why did you eliminate from our profile/channel pages the "View All" link to our "Recent Comments"? Are we not allowed to see our own comments anymore? .....F) These blog comments are full of spam and rants. Where are the 5 icons ("reply", "spam", "plus/minus score", "thumbs down", "thumbs up") that always used to appear alongside our blog comments? .....Thanx for giving us the opportunity to express ourselves.

    Speaking of comments: Why is it that I never ever receive an email notification if someone comments on my profile? 40 channel comments, and I haven't been notified even once... It's frustrating to accidentally stumble over comments days or weeks after they've been made even though the notification option is checked (My Account - Email Options - My profile receives a new bulletin or comment). It would be great if you could have a look at that. Thanks a lot in advance! :o)

    Oh, and how about allowing line breaks in the comments on this blog? It's working on the comments left on YT videos (which are usually a lot shorter than the ones posted here), so I know for a fact that you can do this. :-D
    It would greatly enhance the reading experience on this blog... :o))

    My Recent Comments: Everybody on here seems to complain about the "My Recent Comments" section on the channel only showing the last five comments - and I agree about getting the "View all" feature back. Moverover, though, I would love to see a site that lists all the comments that I ever made but is only accessible to myself. Much like the favorites which you can opt to *not* show up on your channel page, and yet they're still viewable for yourself - just not for the whole world to see. A feature like that would be great! :o)

    Comments sorted by users: Now you got me pondering over things that don't work well or aren't featured yet... :o)) I've always thought it would be nice to have a section that gives me an overview of who commented on my videos (taking into account all of the videos I ever posted). A site that shows the comments, and automatically sorts them by the users that made them. Even if it only listed the comments left by subscribers, it would be very helpful in order to keep track of who likes what, etc...

    INBOX: Being able to create folders in order to move and therefore sort the messages we get would be very helpful.

    The way the inbox is set up right now, it's almost impossible to keep track of who contacted you. Also, it's a real hassle to figure out which messages you've replied to already (having to switch back and forth between the "General Messages" and the "Sent" folder *and* browse through the messages to find what you're looking for).

    To the youtube beta team here are my comments:
    - The beta inbox is cleaner and easier to read, however it lacks the 1 click functionality of the current inbox (I can delete,block etc a users message with 1 click).
    - The beta my videos is much easier to get a quick list of info on the video such as ratings and views, however while editing the video settings their should be a "Save" button at the bottom, so we dont have to scroll up. Also I do not see the "Insight" stats info which should be their as this is a one stop page for all the "Info" about the video.

    Usability is my main concern and expertise.

    Cheers

I have reinstalled it two or three times. I have Enabled all of the Java and Flash things that the HELP files say to Enable. And now I'm out of options. There's no one to call. Good Luck to me, eh?
