It is difficult to tell the grey worlds from the light blue worlds. Is
there anyway we can make them red again? Red was so much easier to see, oh
that one is closed.

[View Quote] I brought this up earlier. I agree. Closed and red go well together.

Red is already used for X rated worlds.
All them light blue worlds are on 3.3 servers still.
Once 3.4 is out of beta and all worlds are using the 3.4 server there will
be no light blue 3.3 worlds.
The colors for 3.4 are.
pink for G rated worlds.
dark blue for PG rated worlds.
green for PG 13 rated worlds.
yellow for R rated worlds.
red for X rated worlds.
gray for closed worlds.

Actually, at least on my screen, the X rated worlds are currently in red-orange, and the G rated worlds are in magenta. That's not as close to the same colors as red and pink.

I'm not a big friend of GUI skins but in this case I think
it would be nice to have a chooseable DLL with only the
BMP ressources contained. This would allow people to modify
those buttons and markers without copyright trouble.

The Win SDK has those functions to load ressources from
a module outside of the current program binary (EXE/DLL).

Plus it would be more "stuff" to offer on download pages :)

what about ppl like me who dont care about ratings and just want wolrds ot
be red or green depending they are open or not , there should be a "retro"
option for those things

Custom ressources would help you too, you could have one
green ball for all open worlds, all ratings the same, and
one red ball for all not public ones.

And we could fix the icons on the build box buttons too.

The idea was to put this kind of patching on a legal base
with an external ressource DLL that you are allowed to alter.

So you're basically talking about browser skins? That's a great idea!

Be careful not to upgrade all your old versions... hope someone still has
them somewhere or you won't be able to make a retro skin...

[View Quote] Well, not really a skin. Just the ability to replace certain image files. Skinning
is a whole lot more complex than that.
