Okay, out of fairness, I reset it back to the new skin/theme and am giving it another try. Here are my thoughts thus far:
I really, really, really miss the quick reply box being at the bottom of the post without having to click "Quick Reply".
I think it would be better to switch the middle frame on the main page with the frame on the right. Frequent posters aren't going to care about the Recent Topics section. They are going to care about what is new since their last visit. Right now, there's no way to see that from the main page. I can either click on "View New Post" or I can click on each board individually to check.
Is there a way to eliminate the time and date from the Recent Topics list? It would make the list shorter and not show lulls in conversation.
I like the logo with the reflection. Very nice.

I also really like the Home Search Profile bar. Classy.
I think the "Related Topics" selection is spotty in its evaluation as to what is related. It linked to a wedding topic from my hummingbird picture.
I'm still getting missing text as was previously reported.
View exif, when selected, isn't showing exif data.
I don't like how the screen stretches when you click on "more" for additional smileys.
Not crazy about the huge bold subject being displayed above each reply.
I do miss the boxes, as they do help to define where each post begins and ends. As it is, people's signatures are just kind of hanging in the breeze.

Enough feedback for now?

Ooo...here's more. When I clicked on "Online Now" it shows what thread each person is viewing. I know from experience that users DO NOT LIKE THAT. It sets the stage for ill will. "I saw you were viewing my thread...why didn't you reply?"
Oopsy...when I clicked on "Full Reply" I got:
Not Found
