I'd like to second this question. On the whole, I really do like the new icon browser better. It looks better, it seems to load faster, and it's just a whole lot smoother in general. I really like that you can turn off the meta text, even though I do like to be able to see that.

I can definitely live with having the icons in upload order, but having the option to order them alphabetically would also be nice. And very useful.
