These are great additions to the already existing formats.
I do have one peeve about the News format. When you view a forum in News format I noticed that the avatars of the posters in that view do not stay aligned. This is because the number of views for each thread changes and alters the position of the avatar. That makes an otherwise great looking format look a little disorderly. (Sorry, I am a bit obsessive compulsive about stuff like this
)
See one of my sub-forums for an example.

For example...

There may be a better solution, but hopefully this demonstrates what I'm talking about.
