I really have to say I don't like it, not one bit. I think the site looks kinda cheap and chinsy now. As FutureFantasyDesign said it does look a lot like a cheap template style website - and a lot of websites seem to be going in this direction (I hate most of them for it).  I thought the old site looked much nicer, cozier, comfier.  The colors especially are quite horrid in the combination they are in, and I much prefer the muted, darker color backgrounds and gradiants of the old site.  Prolonged exposure, contrary to popular belief, will not get me used to it, but instead will likely turn toxic and cause systemic shock.  While I wont go as far as to say I wont shop here, it will reduce the amount of browsing of galleries, products, and content I do here overall.  I am adding my two cents as it was mentioned that the site staff are still gathering feedback from the community and want to wait to see how the site is received, so I do want to make sure I am heard.

As it was mentioned that tweaks are still being done, I hope they will adress some of these issues.  By all means, please, please, please either reset the backdrops and colors to something closer to what they were, or better yet, make the site skinable for users (many websites have done that these days).
