I think the new one is not very well formated. My book covers doesn't fill the tile completely, and there are some assimetrical spaces, color is horrible...
What's wrong with this people?

Colour is horrible? Weird and wonderful on a 16 shades of gray display. I personally prefer the new display on a Glo since it allows me to have more books visible at one time, shows any extras that I may have used lately and, except for the Dralm-damned Sync tile, you can dismiss a tile with a long press.
As for the covers, if you have properly formatted covers, there isn't an issue. If your cover images have aspect ratios that are not 3x4, they will not cover the tile. Personally, I prefer the lack of distortion. If you are really bothered, you can use Calibre to upload the covers in a format that will cover the image area by removing the checkmark on the Keep Cover Aspect ratio. Alternately, you can replace the cover image with one that has the correct aspect ratio.
As for comparing an amateurish image of your Glo to images that give every appearance of better photographic technique and likely quite a bit of digital retouching? Ever seen anything that looked as good as it did in a publicity photo? Hmmm... a touch of cynicism, David?
