I notice that the messages have lost most of their white space (when viewed on a 640 wide window). I see this as a huge mistake. The wide border was the single best feature of the original beta design. By dropping it, you lose the advantage of the negative space within which the message stands out. I hope you'll go back to the wider left and right border. This narrow border would make the dreaded box even messier on the message page.

The new spacing is unbalanced. In the original the left/right space was roughly equal to the white space between the message text and the message number text box and also to the space between the bottom of the message and the "Next" links (which would still look better on the right side).
