OK, getting to like it, but how do I get MY professions onto the front board, the Galaxy forums I'm interested in onto the front board and the other forums that I like to look in on , onto the front board??

I like it. The abbreviated format makes things easier to find for me.

I generally like it, but do miss being able to see the most recent thread subject line for each of my "favorite" forums.

I'm a fan of it... Takes a bit of getting used to, but there's a lot less scrolling now.

remove usuless content on the right hand size and use the space to have the last posted thred under each section..
also bookmarks should be at the top, or what is the point of bookmarking them if you have to scroll past the links in other sections to get to them?

True portal functionality would be wonderful. This is an interesting layout but lacks a lot of functionality i'd consider critical to make it truly usable. The top two functions I'd want to see to make it a "true" portal:
ability to re-organize sections on a per-user basis. For example, i'd like My Bookmarks to be my top section, with My Subscriptions immediately after. From a UI perspective this should be accomplished with a up/down arrow on the right side of each section's header to move each section one up or one down.
ability to remove sections on a per-user basis. For example, I may wish to no longer see Top Boards and would like to remove it from the portal. From a UI perspective this should be accomplished with an (x) to close at the right side of each section.
As is, this displays a lot of information I'm not interested in, and in an unhelpful order. I'll use it for a while, but in the old system the sections that I needed were right at the top whereas in this format they're near the bottom.
GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!!!!
I mean, this is exactly what I would like to see.

I don't like it.
The features I miss the most are
- Having the bookmarks at the top of the page (now they're at the bottom where I have to scroll down to to get at my "QuickLinks"
- Not being able to see what the latest thread/message was - that was always useful to see if there was anything new in that board I'd be interested in.
Tried the preferences setting to see if I could get something I liked but it was all the same....

Thats What I'd like to see
Or atleast be able to change which forum show. example I want to make Eclipse show up under Galaxies and Galaxy Trade since that is my main server. and for professions Carbineer and others I check often.
