Thought I'd create a thread where we can all post about today's auditions as it happens.

I think Paulina is already on her way to Charleston. She's tweeted about the day ahead and has tweeted a picture of a private jet three hours ago which suggests she was just about to get on her flight.

No word from Demi, Kelly, Simon or Mario.

Anyone heard anything?

Also what do we think the judges seating arrangement will be?

I have a feeling it will be: Kelly, Paulina, Simon, Demi

The judges have arrived. In this photograph we can see that Kelly and Paula are already sat at the panel Kelly is in LA's old seat, while Paulina has filled Britney's, positioned next to Kelly.

No word yet from Demi and or Simon but they are obviously both in the building or else the two other judges wouldn't be sitting so soon.

EDIT: As we haven't had any other pictures of any of the judges arriving, I am not 100% sure if these people sat are Kelly and Paulina. It's likely it is them but sometimes members of the team will sit in the chairs whilst preparing. I think it is them considering it's a white lady and a black lady.

There is no audience which to me suggests that they are just 'seat warmers' as normally the judges walk on when audience are sat and ready. Maybe they changed it around this year I do not know.

Slight observations, the screen graphics doesn't have pinks on it - that's a good sign that they're changing the targeted demo back from Season 1.

I love that they`re using the X Factor panel table for the live shows and not that horrendous big table they did 2 seasons ago.

I'm loving the graphics used as the stage background. I hated the pink/blue graphics which were used on the stage last year, looked far too trashy and too 'kiddy'. The blue and silver graphic looks much better. I'm noticing how there are also clouds surrounding the 'X' which looks good. Also the actual X Factor panel is present this time for the auditions. I didn't like the little black table they used for the past two seasons. Looks as though they're rebranding the show entirely and giving the show a more professional feel instead of the cheap feel last year which was purely in place to attract the younger demographic. I mean, even the promo picture of all the judges last year was on a pink background. Much prefer the more professional/smart feel X Factor used to have.

The judges arrive to the venue at different times but they arrive inside the auditions arena at the same time. THAT I am absolutely sure of. especially cause its a new panel as well

Exactly! It looks so professional now! Season 2 was tacky and seemed like the graphics were made by an 8 yr old through MS Paint. This looks so formal now

They really did. It was disappointing. I get the fact that producers and Simon wanted to attract a younger demographic, but surely placing Demi (Teen Idol) on the panel was enough. I'm not saying Demi was a bad choice either. I love Demi on and off The X Factor - I am a HUGE fan of hers.

Yeah it looks much better this way

I'm still hoping for a last minute announcement of Hilary being the co-host.

The stage looks so good! I love the ramp that connects the Judges table to the stage.

Look how different it was in Season 2...

This season looks really well budgeted IMO

With no big name judges, the production side of things are bound to improve. While they will no doubt have a lower budget after unimpressive ratings, the budget they now have is most likely being used better and not wasting vast amounts on useless judges (Britney).

From the birdseye picture of the panel, it looks massive. Looking forward to HQ pics.
