Anyone checked out the new Deviantart website? The interface is much improved. Very fluid, Ajaxian, and nice!

I've copy pasted some of the stuff from the official DA article. . You had best check it out there instead of reading more here.

After much effort, arguing, designing, and programming, our front page is now better than ever! We’ve taken a close look at how our community interacts and made improvements to make new art even easier to discover. Quick-loading thumbnails and a faster, more reliable search are just a couple of ways we’ve made browsing an even more enjoyable experience.
The categories are now a sidebar and the whole interface is really jazzed up. And you gotta love all that Ajax treatment given throughout! - goobi

Our Footer is now a destination in itself! Offering direct access to News, Polls, and other community-specific features, this robust feature is extremely functional and also fun to use. You can also flip through your Channels, giving you a great at-a-glance view of your favorite types of art. But don’t worry, if the Footer isn’t for you it can easily be stowed.
Gotta tell you this footer business is really nice and let's you interact with the community. +1 - goobi

You’ve been clamoring, yelling, and threatening violence over our old Message Center and we've heard your cries! Our new Message Center has been rebuilt from the ground-up and is now better and easier to use than ever before thanks to the following improvements:
  • New sorting options to customize how you view your messages.
  • Create Folders and drag messages for easy categorization.
  • Remove messages immediately, on the fly, without having to use clumsy checkboxes.
One of the most needed improvements! Message center is simply awesome! - goobi

All in all, a great improvement to an already awesome site. And if you have something to do with art, and are not on Deviantart, then instant ban for you! ;)

Other than the footer, I didn't find anything cooler, they still have stuck to this green, could've changed it. As far as Ajax goes, will try it out in peace.

Not bad. It'll take some time to get used to new interface. It looks a mix of old interface with new header and footer. They should have been changed the old green color as well to make it refreshing.
