First of all, welcome to EVE. I'm now going to go over some of your issues and give some feedback.

2nd:
ship controls.
over all i like the way ships are controled in this game over any other space game i have played.
but a lot of the controls are ALL OVER the place.
and some things like "aligne to" do dumb things like try and go to the aligned object at full speed instead of setting speed to say 5 m/s aligning and then STOPING.
the sensor overlay popping up all the time... just simple little things can really be annoying and a turn off for new and old players.
This is something you'll get used to over time. Mastering the keyboard shortcuts is the key to effortless flying.

3rd:
Options
a lot of the options to change things are hard to find and/or in strange areas.
it took me a long time to figure out where the overlay setting were.
and there are camera and other such controls in genreal options in stead of where there is already an options tab for them.
some things i still haven't figured out.... like if you select a sation and hover over "dock" it has a "D" symbol like you can press "D" on your keyboard and you will dock.
also seems to be no way to lock the tool bar or what ever it is on the far left side so it dosen't get resized by accedent.
Definitely agree with you here, the options menu could use some work.

4th:
balance
A: i have gotten high level rat spawns in high sec areas.... and been blown up quickly as i am still a low level char.
B: trying to learn probing and going threw a worm hole to find my self in null space...
i can understand not having concord or what ever they are called in these areas... but the high sec worm holes that newbies are scanning down should maybe have some sort of worm hole dwelling group in them that enforce security with in these low level worm holes.
C: player ganks and traps
-with in 10. - 8. space there needs to be some why to protect new players from these things
maybe have a station or other such building with in these systems that give a buff/boost that any one with this buff firing on some one else with this buff has that damage reduced to 1 damage.
-the only trap i have seen so far is the box of loot sitting out and some one waiting for some newbie that dosen't know not to loot it.... in these systems i think you should not be able to loot these things at all.
This is the part of your post that is going to face most criticism. New players need to learn the hard way that EVE is a dangerous universe, protecting them from harm is just going to hurt them more in the long run.
Furthermore, players who die early in their EVE career tend to stay subbed for longer. This isn't your average MMO, the constant feeling of danger is something that you just don't get in other MMOs today. It is that danger that keeps many of us playing and coming back.

a shuttle that looks like a sled being pulled by raindeer.
EVE has a certain aesthetic, I feel that adding gimmicky items like these will ruin immersion for many of us.

these are bought with real money and should be treated diffrently then other items.
the other day i heard some one on the killboard got ganked in highsec with 25 PLEX on him... and they all vanished.
that is a lot of money to lose and kinda feels like a cash sink... and discurages people from buying them...
A fool and his money are soon parted. This is as true in EVE as it is in real life. There is no reason for anyone to move PLEX in a ship, as they can be redeemed anytime from any station via the Assets menu. People shouldn't be rewarded for making mistakes, otherwise they'll never learn from them.
My lord.
