@Grouchy Old Fart There's a night mode, have you tried that? It's white on black/dark blue, much easier to read.
Otherwise I agree with everyone else here - I was very doubtful at first, because I'm quite adverse to change and have generally hated it when websites suddenly change their layout, even more so out of the blue and with no way to change back (*cough* DeviantArt *cough* Youtube *cough*). But so far I have to say, it looks very good!
If I'm honest, one of my favorite parts is the pages don't refresh when you purchase items now, which speeds things up a bit.
