After I specificall sign in to HotMail, I then need to click on "mail" from a list. Wasted step.
Options -> More options -> Windows Live Home Settings -> Show me my inbox when I sign in -> Save

I believe that's what you're looking for?

Incredibly slow, much more so than the old version.
Seems the same to me.

The screen is cluttered with unnecessary graphics - just show my mail.
The only extra graphic I see is the giant "clean out your inbox" thing about the inbox. I assume that's a temporary thing, to alert people to the new features. And if you don't like it, you can close it. I don't see any other graphics on my view. Is there something else that you're seeing? Maybe I changed some other setting and it already hid whatever is bugging you

Pictures open as thumbmails instead of full-size. I can't find a way to change the setting.
Hmmm...can't help you with that one. I thought I always got them as attachments and they didn't show up in the body of the message. And now I see them in the body of the message. I tried looking at the hotmail forums and didn't see a suggestion for you.
