I prefer the old design. Sure, this new one is very "cool" and "retro" but it's not very practical and not so easy on the eyes. I don't think there are any fashionable and hip "retro nerds" in the Amiga community. We are not like those weird fashion freaks running around in Atari t-shirts and playing Pong just because it "cool-and-retro and totally awesome". So we don't really need workbench "themes" if they are not ALSO practical.
With the old Aminet design there were lots of nice iconic visual cues, for example the "version" icons. I could tell immediately what was of interest for me and my m68k classic A1200. Now I'm having to work hard to SEE what I'm after.
I appretiate the effort of the Aminet team and least they are trying out new things but this new design is not useful for a serious file archieve. Please return the old design! :boohoo:
Also, there is no substitute for REAL hardware - come on! :-)
