I still miss the old screen. The new one is so load and aggressive. The blue screen from January just screamed tech oriented household. The 25th anniversary background looks like a graffiti wall, as if the sims team is pushing us to play grungy run down sims. I would like neutral backgrounds. But seeing the other designs, they all seem loud and aggressive. I hope the next redesign in a few years will be more peaceful.
