Wondering what the reason is why we have borders on around our avatars. And little arrows behind each line in city hall?

If I am really honest, I'd liked it better the old way. But there may be some important reason why this was implemented.

From a web standards POV, the image really shouldn't have a border unless it is a link. If the border stays, I think the pics should link to the same thing that clicking on the name does.

Am I the only one who has noticed that most of the pictures aren't really clear anymore?

I like where the Research link was b4....:) The border thing, doesnt really bother me. In fact, when I noticed it...I'm like "Was that there b4?" lol :) I also like the city hall time to be on top ,not the bottom. Oh well...thats just my opinion hehe I can get used to change I suppose :)

Yeah, the thing that really irks me about the Research isn't the most recent change, it's the change that made the faction information located in the Hall of Records as well. So now there's always an extra page to click through to get to research. Yuck.

Well,I did notice the yellow square box around all the pictures, but it didn't matter to me either way. However, I almost freaked when I couldn't find the "Hall of Records," to research my case. I clicked on everything, until finally I saw it in the bottom left hand corner which I thought made it just as easy to find. So it doesn't matter to me. I do know this, since I joined April, 2004, this game has come....(as the saying goes in America) You've come a long way baby!.....and I'm meaning Sleuth. Thanks Ben.

Hey Ben, I think you've spoiled us, hehe. I wanted to add a big thank you for taking the time to get to know all of us & for your involvment in your own game. I don't know of any games online that the owner is involved like you and Sunny. Thanks for all you've done and are doing.

Yes, thank you, Ben!

Um, that "yuck" was constructively meant...

Yeah, I'm open to removing the borders from avatars. Generall, I want most images in the main content area to have borders, if they are on a black background. The images look somewhat unconnected to the site, if they don't.

In the case of the avatars, they almost always appear on grey backgrounds, so I suppose it's not that big a deal.

I'll try to figure out a better spot for the Hall of Records link too.

I don't like the borders around the avatars. Simply because it gives me this too much yellow stuff and cluttered feel.

Further I am OK with everything. Actually I do like the different order of city hall, and the hall of record link in a seperate place.

Ben said "Generall, I want most images in the main content area to have borders, if they are on a black background. The images look somewhat unconnected to the site, if they don't. "

How about fatter grey borders for images on black backgrounds? That would get rid of the excess of yellow and also wouldn't look like they were links then.
