Laugh at your problems, everybody else does.
Backgrounds are changing on Feb 22nd last I heard. You can check out iJustine's YT channel and there's a few blog posts around the net about it. If I could post links I would, hopefully someone else comes along who can

Anyone can keep the old layout for the first 2-3 months
They`re taking them away to match the re-branding they`re doing with all their websites

Personally I love the change. Thank you Shane for linking that blog post
I know people are going to lose out on their "creativity" for background designs and such, but if you want a truly creative space you should be looking at getting a website drawn up for you and your channel. Can't afford a website or don't want to invest in one right now? Chances are your channel is too small, or you are very new to making content anyways, and you don't need that creative space. I'm not saying this is true for everyone, but I've seen hundreds of smaller channels make the most basic mistakes when it comes to channel design and branding, and with the YT changes now they can't make their channels look terrible.

Well if you decide to not move to the new layout for the first few months then you can keep it, although for non-partners the new layout is probably better as you get a bannerWow, I just made a new youtube background

I personally liked the background before the last one , it had everything on one page. And it was bigger. Oh well, everything has to change sometimes right?
