I like the static ones better. Its just too crowded now.. If at least youd loose those smilies as they take too much space and use smaller flags itd be better.. I know you had good intentions, but dont you think all these animations just distract from the actual posts which I believe should be the main reason for us to be here
And those new platinum "signs" theyre just way too big IMO. A simple one liner saying "platinum" (text such as "location" would be preffered) would be much nicer, while those keys being there noe are just totally redundant. With those big "signs" avatars kinda fade away and I have to look real hard to see who the poster is, while back then avatar said it all. Its like we are bunch of clones now if you know what I mean.. Sorry, Im just being constructive
What ever you decide at the end is fine by me as its not a critical thing, just saying what Id personally preffer. Maybe somebody else could comment on my post? Anybody agrees with me, or am I the only weirdo?
Just a thought..
