I like the new rounded corners of the search, text entry, and image thumbnails. Initially I though the thumbnails was way too much for their small size but now I'm loving it.

IMHO consistency in rounded corners should be applied site wide. If you round the corners at 20px on the sidebox then the footer, search, and thumbnails should use the same curve. Exceptions may be made for smaller curves on boxes within boxes, or larger curves for bigger fields, or simply for aesthetics.

I hated the thumbnails at first and warmed up too!

I love rounded corners. My old site was all rounded. The old fashioned way, all with images in tables.

My favourite place for rounded corners? Architecture!!! Especially in the Bay Area with the Victorian / Edwardian ornate dentals and details and rich palettes.
