Frankly: lots of lipstick, but does it do anything substantially different?
Clearly a great deal of effort was put into this new UI skin, but to my mind the beauty and pleasure of MoI
is how well it actually works. By analogy: a car that looks great but isn't fun to drive won't sell very well.
Related: a car whose look and feel morph into something new with each iteration risks confusing drivers.
Finally discerning drivers buy performance.
I think Michael has a good handle on the balance between form and function.

Very nice try and a lot of work in this presentation.
As others said, MoI philosophy is not to be sexy but is to be easy and efficient.
After you said that, having more choice for the style is a good idea for icons, colors if you keep the basic philosophy Simple-Efficient-Modularity.
But, we see most of us don't be ready to risk a revolution where we'd lose the fundamentals of MoI.
You made a hudge work. Grats !
Have fun !

MoI already has the easiest to use UI that I've encountered in software. Seems like improving on it across the board would take a tremendous effort.

I think the presentation is outstanding ! As an everyday interface I probably couldn't handle it more than 5min, it's way too much colourful.
I know nothing about UI design science, but for me the most important area for a modeller is the object I'm working on, everything else should stay behind and silent if you see what I mean ... looks like this version will force me to create happy stuffs :O) ...
From: HansChristian
I think that it looks awesome and much more modern. As Michael says there could probably be some changes to colors etc. to prioritize usability which I agree that is of course the most important. I would love to be able to customize every GUI component in Moi even though it's already very customizable.
From: Matadem
I think it looks good.
for the Moi logo it should remain the inspiration light bulb.
but I am still using the default ui colors . works good.
From: Flowgun
I wish I had this guy's patience and skill, but I still prefer the default MoI.
Edit: I had to make sure that "prostate" doesn't have another meaning. "prostate interaction" seems a bit too invasive and not very friendly.
From: Michael Gibson
I hadn't previously noticed that piece of this redesign... Must be an unfortunate automatic translation.

From: BurrMan
The perennial satisfaction of using MoI hasn't quite reached perineal satisfaction!
Too much?
From: Moi3dFan
In our language, the word "Simplicity" and "Prostate" are spelled almost exactly the same
Простота - Simplicity
Простата - Prostate
Still, automatic translators do not always capture context, and even if there is no typo in the text, the translator may interpret the words differently
From: Frenchy Pilou (PILOU)
In French "prostate" is an another thing totally different! :)
An human organ!
From: TD5
A part from tweaking some color to reduce the overall contrast and colorfulness, icons are really well made and pie menus is something I'd love to have coming from Maya. I'd buy this in a heartbeat.
From: twofoot
Since we're playing a "what if" game here. These are my take on app icons. Simple and clean.
