Newgrounds Wide Layout Issues

I kinda like it, but it needs a lot of improvement. I have some images to show what exactly I'm talking about. Here's the image of the full page, I'll call attention to various parts of it with smaller images cut out of this main image.

First and foremost, the flash should not auto-load. I hate shit automatically loading. Even if it's just automatically loading a preloader with a play button. Most flashes have some audio right away and it's irritating. On other sites with streaming video (hey, let's take a vector animation format and use it to deliver raster content! Yeah!), I generally always pause right away because the videos try to play as they're loading and sometimes don't load quickly enough. Just like with Windows, autoplay = bad.

Second, the neat little buttons for night mode, popup (I always view flashes on NG in the popup), and wide mode don't have tooltips. They're just mystery meat icons that barely represent what they do. Also, the popup button works differently now and causes some popup blockers to whine and complain.

Third, why the extra "would you like to view adult content" confirmation on adult-content flashes? Did I not specify my birthday in my profile? Can you not do a little math and find out I'm over 18? At the very least, make it a profile preference. "Check here if you would like to view adult content" or something.

Fourth, the vote box is no longer in view on page load. I stopped viewing under-judgment submissions a long time ago. All I do now is spam my votes every day so I can deposit my 10 experience and eventually at some point I'll unlock all the secrets. I do this by going through my favorites and voting on 5 random ones.

Fifth, there's these boxes that obscure parts of the page that just look misplaced. I think they're supposed to have ads or something, but thankfully Adblock Plus cleanses them from view. I guess I'll have to write a greasemonkey script or a stylish style to remove the boxes. The long, thin one would have an ad in it if I didn't have Adblock Plus, but it isn't the one I'm talking about. I'm talking about the one that covers up part of the review above it, preventing me from potentially weighing in on whether or not I think that review is useless.

This last one isn't really an issue, but in the thread on their forums about the new layout, people were complaining about "what if you're using a low resolution?" There's no excuse for that these days. Most if not all monitors are capable of at the very least 1024x768. I use 1152x864 because it's the highest 4:3 resolution my video card does that my monitor supports a decent refresh rate for, since my monitor won't do more than 900 lines at above 60Hz. If only my video card had a 1200x900@75Hz mode. I can set it to 1600x900 and adjust my monitor's picture so that the aspect ratio is correct, but that's just weird using a widescreen resolution on a 4:3 monitor. There's no excuse for using 800x600 or lower in this day and age. Even those netbooks like the Asus eeePC and the Acer Aspire One have a native resolution that's 1024 pixels wide.
