    I loved the old layout, it seemed simple, but i messed around in the new one last night for a bit just trying to get used to stuff, i kind of like the layout and all. I like the screenshots for games and stuff, i think its easier now to find downloads and stuff for games, the one thing i absolutely cant stand though, is the stupid avatar junk. If i was 7 years old... maybe i'd find it amusing, however im not 7, and i find it stupid. oh well.

    i have mixed feelings... I thing the friend party avatar thing is a little over done... Is that all really needed?

    But I subscribed to Netflix free trial last night. I have to say WOW. That is an awesome feature. It really blows that Sony pictures aren't in there. But to have that library available 24/7 is really cool. Great quality too. I had no slow downs or skips. Great feature.

    im not digging the new ui yet. although, the intro video was pretty sweet. the new messenger will take some getting used to. i also think they put way too much stuff on the dashboard.

    I enjoyed making my avatar.

    When posing for your gamer icon, try this. Press LB while zoomed out to cycle through an assortment of guestures. You can snap a photo with RB to get a cool action shot. Oh, and don't forget that you can make him belch by pressing RS. So far I've made a pimp, a business man, and an average joe.

    Now....what can I do with this avatar I created? :shrugs:

    I'm still mixed on the update. I like the 8 person party feature. The avatar doesn't have enough options, the friends list takes too long to scroll through now, and I didn't even get to watch the welcome video cause it locked up my xbox after downloading the update.

    The Gears theme that gamestop gave out is pretty cool though, much better than the standard one that came with the update

    If you hit the Xbox guide button, you should see an option for "Friends". I believe that will give you the previous style friends list.

    So far I dont love it, the avatars are dumb IMO. I have a 360 to play video games, not dress up a little character. Also not sure I like the new friends list and such..... Though it does seem to be a tad faster which is nice.
