I have to agree on the new status icons being not all better. The biggest problem I see is the fact that it is hard to distinguish the blue download and green seeding icons, their color is much similar. And the Preferences button on the toolbar looks like if it was greyed out, like an unclickable button. It should be colorized so it stands out more. But other than that, I don't see anything wrong. It will just take some time to get used to - and of course, there is personal preference. The old ones had a more "unified" look, though...
