I keep bouncing and twitching and making new posts. It's like - BAM! - new discovery, something made, etc. etc.
Now that I've had the day to adjust to VV, I have some more comments. Let's see...
PROS
-Pages are loading up faster than this morning. I think the Curse of the Morning Slug just carried over from the previous version.
-Exploration is fun. I've been poking around and managed to find a good handful of people without having to find links to them. XD;
-PNG support for avatars. FTW!
CONS
-The lack of HTML support is really the biggest flaw we've got going here. Honestly. Could we at least get a WYSIWYG/HTML duo editor? [Gah, I hate BB code so much...]
-Non-uniform file support across the site. So my avatar can be a .PNG but not any introduction image? Huhm.
-The fact that news is now shoved off in a World rather than being on the front page. This is the second biggest flaw we've got going here, in my opinion. I mean...when I log onto theOtaku, I want to see news. BAM! Right there. I don't want to go wading off.
-Organization seems to be rather messy. Everything is nice and large, but tables seem non-existent. The Words section is probably the most evident of this problem, as it's all basically toppling on itself and looks like an eyesore.
-Emptyness. Seriously. Too...much...white...! The tops of pages look nice, but as you scroll on, it's...blah.
-Lack of personalization for Worlds. Seriously, I have to have either a background image or use a pre-existing one? I can't just choose a color? Hey, how come my avatar doesn't pop up in my intro? Wait, why is it Worlds display absolutely NO more information?
-The emoticons are useless, sorry. I prefer :3 and XD and P: and >>; and such. Besides, when I look at the emotes, they just don't strike me as very...different from one another.

I'm sorry, I complain a lot. ._.;
