Skype 7 might be the ugliest UI I've ever seen. If I wanted to use a mobile version of software, I would be on my phone.

New update hurts my eyes and is hard to look at. Each message used to take up 1 line, now they take up 3 per message. Can only view 9 contacts or 4 threads on the screen nav. SERIOUSLY WTF?!?

Completely unacceptable. The new layout looks like it was designed for phones/tablets. In no way is it suitable for a desktop/laptop. The old layout was much easier to follow, and the colors were much easier on the eyes.

This new interface is not even close to compact enough to hold all of the data I send daily.

The new interface/layout is in no way suitable for everyone. I use Skype for work, I don't want it to look like blue smartphone texts, and I NEED to be able to follow the chat as easily as possible. Especially in a group chat of 30+ people. They need to know that this interface change is unacceptable for many, dare I say MOST Skype users. This issue is very different from when Facebook, YouTube, or Twitter changes their interface/layout. Skype is, in many cases, directly tied to peoples livelihoods. It needs to look professional, it needs to be easy to read/follow, and as far as I'm concerned, it should never ever look like it currently does. Please, provide the option to use the previous layout.
