I got this new design automatically but not on all my accounts and here is a way to get it for you too:

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-YN6vn3jBMxA/TshaRTysQSI/AAAAAAAAMdQ/hWRcZ5Wob3o/s1024/youtube_new.png



1. Go to http://www.youtube.com (http://www.youtube.com/)
2. Press Ctrl + Shift and J in Chrome to open the Developer Tools
Press Ctrl+Shift+K in Firefox
3. Click on the "Console" Tab and enter
document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=ST1Ti53r4fU";
4. Reload the website and enjoy the new layout.

I first got SyntaxError: illegal character with firefox.
To fix it try document.cookie='VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=ST1Ti53r4fU';

for Opera:
Settings > Preferences > Advanced > Cookies >Manage Cookies
search VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE
press edit
set Value to: ST1Ti53r4fU
save and reload youtube

What happens if you go to the bottom of your youtube page?

Do you see this:


© 2011 YouTube, LLC Report a bug Try something new!

Then click on Cosmic Panda:

http://www.youtube.com/cosmicpanda

Try it out and yeah, new site.

I don't get the new front page just by opting in to that though.

That's odd, I had the new look earlier today but now it's gone =o

For the past like week it keeps switching on and off for me :P I don't care either way, but it's kinda weird that it's doing that.

nice, worked in firefox for me.

The google+ page has said that cosmic panda is not the new youtube. How do we get the OP in firefox?

Edit: Nevermind, "Press Ctrl+Shift+K in Firefox" :P
