Like the new look to audiogon ?

THe keyhole "bolded" pic is their attempt to make it a PREMIUM feel....???

It is TERRIBLE!!

Whoever had thought this was a good idea for an update needs to be sit down and taught a thing or two. 

I find the new format somewhat confusing and less user friendly. The new edition looks a lot more like a cable infomercial or television show with almost as many random commercials as program content. I would prefer an option to choose between the new format and previous one.  Craigslist might serve as a model where multiple search approaches are available. The look of the new Audiogon gives me the impression that there are actually fewer available audio listings in a given category than before. In the simplified earlier version a quick search for a given product or manufacture would produce a well organized and easily accessible list. The latest version seems to be trying to challenge shoppers/buyers to see if they can navigate the maze to try to see what if anything is available. I love Audiogon and appreciate their efforts to innovate but I do think an option to use the new or previous edition would help to possibly not alienate long time members.

They said they will allow us to use the list format...

... I personally think the thumbnail format is useless and should not even be an option.  I just tried using it again and I gave up.  The keyhole thumbnails are useless and annoying. 

Plus.... I don't like how the searches are no longer very relevant and bring up a whole lot of listings that have nothing to do with what I'm searching for. 

In the past, if I search for WIlson speakers, I would know instantly how many are on the market based on the # of pages the search would bring up, but now, it's confusing as it brings up 7 pages, and 60% are not even speakers!!

Agon admin are well aware of the situation and of these threads and the unanimous level of frustration.
I can only assume by the fact that they have NOT already rolled it back that they are working on a different fix that will still incorporate their "premium" look.
Well they may be congratulated for their perseverance but unless it is a perfect fix they may find the majority will have already jumped ship.
Imho, they should have rolled it back to give buyers and sellers a usable interface once more and then worked on a new fix offline.
Any maybe rolling it out as a beta would be a very good idea.

Audiogon will not help the sales or purchases of audio equipment by "shrinking" the equipment view into a "blank 45 paper sleeve" which is now to be viewed with 7 other "search" listings along with 48 other additional mixed "similair item" listings below it on one page. The "Search"  was designed to narrow down, not to blow up!
