You should be good now.

It seems that in the "my notifications" page there are some columns:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | | checkbox | Time | Message | Go to... | Green circle with mark inside |
I can see that the columns 3 and 5 point to this page: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/WebControls/#[^] which in my case is a white page without any content.
Then we have the 4th column in which we have the "Go To..." which points directly to the message/post... that originated the notification. Unless everything is part of a really clever hamster's plan, shouldn't the "Go to..." and the green circle disappear and leave it like:
Then, clicking on the message would drive the cpian directly to the post that originated the notification...
Thank you for your great job!
PS: before the change CP was a great community with a responsive set of forums that worked really well, now, with those changes, we have the same great community and the same responsiveness but a new feel that's really good.
Thank you all.

I've deliberately made it so that clicking on the message shows you the message in-place, in order to save you a page load. the point being that you can quickly review and remove a bunch of messages, and then if you really need to go to them you hit the "go to" button.
Also: thanks for the kind words. A few more tweaks left, but we're very happy so far. I feel like I can breath again...

Forget it... I've just tried it again and now I can see the message just under the message subject as you explain...
Yesterday, on the click of the message subject I was being driven to a blank page...
Now it works perfectly...
Don't know if you've made any change or not, but it works...
Sorry to disturb you...

Nope, no changes made. Must have been one of those things...
Meanwhile...
if (user == "Joan")
{
GreenButton.OnClick = GoNowhere();
Title.Href = WhitePageUrl();
}

OK, I guess I've just found it...
Meanwhile, I promise that for my next ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) doping test I will not give a positive result...

I can't quite recall what the section was called, but the front page used to have, at the bottom, a section with top rated / voted articles from the past few weeks. This was the 'view' that I used most often to find quality articles.
Is it located somewhere else now?
(I think the new design is slowly growing on me!)

Just at the bottom of upvote thumb icon, a small orange transparent rectangle is present. Should not be there.

This happens on articles as well.

The box around the solution header appears to have shrunk, so that the top horizontal line runs straight through the text:

[edit]Just noticed: the box around the voting stars for the actual question is shrunken in the same way, but horizontally instead of vertically.[/edit]

Nice ASCII art.
I've fixed it and will hopefully get a deploy out tonight.

I wondered what happened there. Another 'Magical Mystery Maunder Moment'?

Looking at my reputation events, I see:
22 Sep 2012 5:38 PM 80 Author Article Upvoted Article StringBuilderPlus Improves Upon StringBuilder
22 Sep 2012 5:27 PM 80 Author Article Upvoted Article StringBuilderPlus Improves Upon StringBuilder
I think when DrABELL changed his vote from 4 to 5, the vote was counted twice. Note that I do not see a "-80" to balance out the difference. Article: StringBuilderPlus Improves Upon StringBuilder.

Interesting! We'll dive in and see what happened.

What Sandeep explains about the notifications (that you can't go from the red button to any notification without seeing the notification list to vanish) also happens when the mouse hovers the user name... Then the list with "My settings, My contact info..." suffers from the same effect that the notifications list.
It seems that the white separation space that is between the user name and the list itself kills the lists...
PS: apart of that, again great job with the new layout!

When you start off at the new homepage, you get big buttons:
"Post an article"
"Post a question"
"Search out articles" Assume you are a newbie, and you have a problem. So, you press the "Post a question button"
You are taken direct to the "New QA question page". All of this is fine. Except...in the default view, using my 1680x1050 monitor, and a "vanilla" IE9 browser, all I can see is:
Subject
Tags
Big textbox for the question
Start of preview
Lot of space on right hand side. What I can't see (and won't scroll down to look for) is the text:
A few simple rules when posting your question.
1.Have you searched or Googled for a solution?
2.Be specific! Don't ask "I need to write a booking application". Specify exactly what it is you need help with.
3.Keep the subject brief but descriptive. eg "How do I change the dialog colour?"
4.Keep the question as concise as possible. If you have to include code, include the smallest snippet of code you can - do not dump your entire codebase.
5.Tag your question appropriately.
6.Your question may be edited or retagged by others. Anything inappropriate will be removed.
7.If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
8.Be courteous and DON'T SHOUT. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping others, not because it's their job.
9.Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied. Keep the thread intact and available for others to search and read.
10.Do not be abusive, offensive, inappropriate,harass anyone on the boards or post ads or spam. Doing so will get you kicked off and banned. Play nice. Can we not move this to the right hand side of the textbox, so it is immediately visible, and at least suggests they should use Google first?

Try it now.
The RH layout is how we originally had it, but I forgot why we moved it down.
