AAAUGH KILL IT
Or give me an 800 x 600 version. I can't function on anything higher. My vision's bad enough as it is--any higher and I start straining to see things.
I don't WANT all this clutter. I don't NEED to see a picture of my pet on the side. I don't CARE which of my Neofriends are online, because they're all on AIM where I can talk to them.
The new Quick Ref pictures are tiny and blurry, and the Grey Kougra looks HAPPY. ARRGH.(Do the other Grey pets all have delighted grins on their faces?)
If they don't give us an 800 x 600 option or a way to remove the side clutter, I believe this will drive me off the site.
For those who have specific problems(like the new pet look, lack of customization, or resolution change) with the new lookup, here's my suggestion: avoid Neopets this weekend(Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). Don't even collect dailies. That sort of drop in pageviews will show them exactly how much you hate the new look and your specific issues. And if they don't address these issues, you can always leave the site. I'd hate to do it, but I'm not about to change my resolution just for Neopets.
I mean...what if they take away the old option for the Werelupe?

WHY IS HE STILL WEARING THE FREAKING PANTS? HE DOESN'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE A WEREWOLF ANYMORE.
Some of these new images are pretty, but they lack
flair. There's nothing original or interesting about them. I keep going..."This isn't Neopets." And it's not just the redesign of the site and pets. Neopets just keeps getting more and more bland. It used to be quirky, and now it's just like every other site out there.
And yes, I'm really upset. I never thought Neopets would turn on the 800 x 600 people. This redesign feels like a slap in the face--"Go ahead! Leave the site! You're no longer important to us."
"Oh, better far to live and die/Under the brave black flag I fly/Than play a sanctimonious part/With a pirate head and a pirate heart."
