Anyone know if there's a way to get a username fixed, and who to bug about it? Mine got the same capitalization error everyone else's did. I prefer Nai_Calus to Nai_calus, bleh. I have no idea where to even start looking over there anymore and it makes my eyes bleed to read it.

I like the color scheme (I use the D&D one), the speed, and all the new possibilities. 
The only thing that is irritating so far is the big sidebar in the "actual" forums. It's ok if you browse for a subforum, but when I want to see the actual threats then I want to use as much of my screen as possible.
By the way, since I never used Facebook and such Sites ... what is the use of "Add Friends" and the like?

Hmm. I've never really liked the organization of the Wizards D&D forums (way too many sub-forums, no clear 'General' forum) but this refresh has certainly revitalised the look and feel.
Looks very nice, profile setup worked fine, I'm running at 1280x1024 in Firefox 3.5 and have absolutely no content bleed issues, and generally a much more pleasant place to be than the previous effort.
Blogs, groups, wiki's etc. look good, although somewhat behind the times.
Overall, I like.
Edit: In fact, the more I look around, the more impressive it becomes. But damn, they need to sort out some of the posting glitches!

Looks like I'm in the minority here, I actually like the look of the new _beta_ forums in general. (Of course I've got a few nitpicks.)
Yeah, that's slightly annoying.
As you wish, Sire. Awesome picture, Scott!

Edit your profile, and you can select a couple of other pretty nice themes.

Yeah, I'm currently using the DnD theme.
I'm just so used to the Parchment setting from the previous board and this black board that the bright white forums is harder on the eyes.

The more I play around with it, the more I like it! 
Not only is there finally a (very fast) search option included (YEAH!) but the integrated group, blog, wiki, calendar, etc. is great and easy for managing one or more rpg-group(s).
Too bad that I already have my own domain and wiki

I like it. It will take a little time getting used to navigating it.
I had no problems using it or editing my profile. I like that I can use almost any picture for my avatar, instead of having to choose from the pictures that they had available.
Seeing as it's only the beta, improvments are likely something to look forward to.

It's too bad that there apparently isn't any way to make this new search thing USEFUL.
Sure, it gets you results fast. But then you have to sort through every post ever that ever contained the word, can't search just the title, and god help you if there's ever been a long topic on the subject. (Go search 'Corellon' in Forgotten Realms: Realmslore, assuming you can find the forum. Protip: There's a 22 page thread where every single post shows up. Individually. This is not useful unless you have entirely too much time on your hands.)
